Honeymoon Registry - Yeh or Nah?

[JaimeLynne]

I think we're gonna go for it! I asked my best friend for her advice (knowing she'd be brutally honest) and she said she thought it was just a tad impersonal but overall a great idea.

Yes, we are signed up with Honeymoon Wishes - Honeymoon Registry where your wedding gift is a Romantic Honeymoon and have already had some gifts purchased. We also set up a honeymoon account with our TA, and already have some funds in that as well.

This might be a stupid question, but, are you having a bridal shower registry and a honeymoon registry?? Or is the honeymoon registry covering the shower?

Our registry covers everything. Its on our website (we also registered at Home Depot, Macys and Bed Bath & Beyond). But I know one of my bridal showers is going to be a lingerie party and another will probably be a couples "stock the bar" party ... (at least that's what I've heard through the grapevine. lol)

We're also using TheBigDay (and Patti - lol). We're booking our week after the wedding through them, so no fees. We put it on our website, and so far the response has been good. Granted, no one has bought us anything yet, but they all seem to think its a cool idea!

I guess the big difference between these two is that you have to book travel with thebigday.com. travelersjoy.com essentially cuts you a check after you customize your expected honeymoon activities. Any guidance would be great! Thanks! Kat and Rob

We were thinking about doing that as well. Our travel agent had cards that you could slip in the invitations. Just like as if you were to register at the bay or anywhere else.
