Have you considered directing wedding guests who ask "What kind of gift would please you most?" to a honeymoon travel registry?
Every new household can surely use a set of pots and pans as well as silver, glassware, and china (although we're not convinced of the utter necessity of possessing pickle forks or a silver tea service). So the existence of a wedding gifts registry is useful to soon-to-marry couples and their guests.
But what if you already have most of the necessities to feather a nest, or neither of you have much interest in domestic acquisitions, or you're simply hoping that wedding gifts pay off in something you really want to do -- like travel? In that case, and for couples who might not otherwise be able to afford a great trip, signing up for a honeymoon bridal gift registry could ensure you get wedding gifts you really want.
A honeymoon registry generally works by allowing a couple to select elements of their honeymoon (airfare, hotel nights, meals, tours, sports, spa treatments, admissions, spending cash) that friends and family may buy for you in increments as wedding gifts.
Many travel agencies also provide honeymoon gift registry services.
As with anything else, you need to be a smart consumer when choosing a honeymoon bridal registry. The last thing that you want is to have the value of your gifts eroded by a high "service fee" that can reduce your take by as much as 15 percent. That means before your honeymoon, you typically receive a check for the total gift cash contributions minus the company's percentage, which could represent a considerable loss to you.
Here are some questions to ask when choosing a honeymoon bridal registry:
- What does it cost to register?
- Are there other fees involved?
- Do you deduct anything from the price of gifts?
- What services do you provide?
- Is your business a travel agency?
- Do you help customers announce their registry?
- In what form do we receive our registry gifts and when?
- Can they be redeemed for cash?
- Do you notify us every time a gift is purchased?
- Can the registry be integrated onto our wedding Web site?
