Ideas for your Honeymoon Registry
Forget the crockpot and sheets, honeymoon registries are in! More and more couples are getting creative with their wedding registries and asking for their friends and family to chip in for honeymoon expenses, fun activities, travel upgrades and little luxuries. It’s not always easy to ask for cash, but if what you really need is funds for a great adventure together, now there’s an easy way to do it!
Over the past few years, quite a few honeymoon registries have popped up. Some of the most popular options are Honeyfund, The Knot Cash Funds, Wanderable, Traveler’s Joy, Blueprint, Honeymoon Wishes and Zola. You can set up a cash fund that allows gift givers to contribute to a generic ‘travel experiences’ bucket, or itemize your own hand-picked wish-list so they can choose where they want to allocate their monetary gift. Have a look at the different registry samples and see which one fits your style. Then all you have to do is choose from an available template based on your destination, or select from various experiences to build your own honeymoon registry. Give it a little personalization with photographs, tell your story, and maybe add some commentary to each requested item – however you prefer!
We’ve chosen our favorite giftable experiences around the Mediterranean to give you some inspiration and help you create the honeymoon registry of your dreams! So, where do you want to go? …
Transportation & Accommodation
For big expenses like flights, transfers and hotels, you may want to just set aside separate categories for transportation and accommodation needs and upgrades. Your guests can then choose how much they want contribute to help you chip away at the overall cost. To give them a better visual of the gift they’re actually giving, you could write a message or a list letting them know what you’re planning to use it for.
- Chip in for airfare (this item can be split by 20 people or more!)
- Limousine transfer to the airport
- First class train tickets
- Chip in for hotel room or suite upgrades
- His and Hers massage
