So, I'm back from the beach but still don't have the vacation bug out of my system. Unfortunately, my budget can allow only so much wining, dining and lazy beach days. As soon as I got back to the day job, I received a call from my uncle, needing my help (and my discount) picking out a wedding gift.
Looking through the registry got me thinking about people (me) who already have too many bar accoutrements (don't judge), have already decorated their bathrooms or just bought a great set of everyday china on sale. And what about others (me, again) who want a honeymoon full of wining, dining and lazy beach days but are on a strict wedding budget. What are their registry options?
Then, I found the Marriot Honeymoon Registry, a service that allows couples to register for accommodations, spa services, meals and golf outings... even hotel bathrobes are available! A quick Google search confirms that honeymoon registries aren't hard to come by - Disney, Carnival Cruises, even the Aruba Travel Authority has one. Alternative registries like these are a great way to provide guests with the opportunity to help you and your groom create memories, not just more household clutter.
To start your registry, think first about what kind of honeymoon you want. Is an all-inclusive resort your style, or are you more of a road-trippy hippie? Want a luxe stay full of pampering or an adventure trip filled with excursions? Then, pinpoint a honeymoon service like HoneyLuna or Honeymoon Wishes and scan the sample registries. Compare these with registries from hotels and resorts to determine which is most suited to your needs while also being diversified enough in price to fit your guests wallets.
My dream registry? One filled with pampering and a healthy dose of fashion - like this one to Fiji from Honeymoon Wishes.
