What are some fun ways to incorporate your honeymoon registry into your wedding website or invitations? How do we notify our guests about our honeymoon wishes registry and wedding website?
Carlie: We provide: Downloadable announcements to print, an email announcement wizard, a wedding website, a full online photo album, a wedding blog, a share tool to post your registry on Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites. Make sure your family knows how special this is to you, by using any or all of these helpful methods.
What if we don’t know where we are going, but want to use the honeymoon registry?
Carlie: If you have not booked your honeymoon trip or destination wedding yet and are not sure where you are going we suggest choosing ‘Undecided’ or ‘It’s a Surprise!’, when creating your registry. You can always update the specific location for your honeymoon later. You can still add your wishes in a general way while planning.
How will I know how much to ask for?
Carlie: When setting up your Honeymoon Wishes registry, we provide a suggested gift amount for each item, based on the suppliers in that area. However, you are free to ask for whatever you would like. We recommend using varied denominations to accommodate all guests and checking with your travel professional or supplier for exact pricing. All prices vary by location, availability, and are subject to change without notice. You can break down the amounts any way you choose. For example, if an item is going to cost you $200.00, you may ask for ‘2 gifts of $100.00’ or ‘4 gifts of $50.00’. If you’ve chosen to have gifts go to your hotel, those prices will be listed in the exact amount for you.
If you value experiences over things, then these honeymoon registry ideas might just be for you! Thanks so much 2 Travel Anywhere for sharing this with us!
