Thoughts on Honeymoon registries??
So we finally booked our flight, and we reserved our room, but will put the deposit on the room tomorrow..when we do I'll post a check thread!!! I am SOOO excited.
So I set up a Honeymoon registry through Sandals. I figured that is the easiest even though they do charge small fees. The reason I did it is that some friends specifically asked about giving us experience gifts and what we'd like, so it's great.
I know my shower invites were put together yesterday (my family is soooo bad at being sneaky) and that they did NOT include the Sandals info.
My mom says she's never heard of it before and thinks it's strange. To me I think it's become the norm, and it's a choice. They still have my traditional registries from Macy's and W-S to choose from.. What do you think in general about honeymoon registries?
I put both ':contribution to the honeymoon' in $25, $50 and $100 increments and about 4 excursions we'd like to do, and 2 spa treatments. I think people will moreso go for the excursions and spa treatments because then they feel they're giving a gift. Do you think this is something people are more likely to do for the shower or the wedding? I guess it's good for the wedding to because it gives people the option to give a 'cash' gift without giving cash,and they can actually put it on a CC.
