Honeymoon Registry?
I’m getting married in February of ‘09 and my fiance and I were talking about doing a honeymoon registry instead of registering at like Bed, Bath, and Beyond or something. We’re already living together, so we don’t need dishes or anything like that. Has anyone on here done that, and if so, was that the only registry you did?
Thanks so much for the help.

Honeymoon registry = tacky with a capital T.
Even if you don’t think you need something, look around. Consider upgrading old dishes, old drinkware, old silverware, worn out bath/dish towels. Even when you don’t think you need it, chances are you do. If a couple I knew dared to ask me to contribute to a vacation even I cannot afford, I’d buy a cheap frame and leave it at that.
I agree to having options for the guests, but i don’t see anything wrong with a honeymoon registry. that stupid dollar dance is for money towards the honeymoon and any money gifts are usually used for the honeymoon, so what is the difference.
No, it’s a very rude thing to do. Just because a service is available, doesn’t mean it’s a ‘good’ idea.
It’s not your guests’ fault that you two are shacking up and have all your household items! Justs allow them to choose gifts they want, and accept anything you receive graciously.
And no asking for money or giftcards either.
you can do a wedding registry through Liberty Travel. I think I would also do a small registry via Target/Macy’s ect…so this way you give your guests options (like for your bridal shower). I didn’t think I needed anything either, but they (the bridal consultants at Macy’s) suggested that anything that we had that was over 3 years old, put on the registry.
Guests like to get you gifts..they not may want to contribute towards your honeymoon.
