| someone noted maybe ahving a honeymoon registry instead of a gift registrry.. how would i go about this if i choose to do this? is it rude? how would the shower work if there are no gifts? and any other advice about it would be helpfulif there's no shower how do u send the invitations to do the registry? also.. wouldnt that be your wedding gift then you definitely wouldnt expect anything at the actual wedding?i just dont think many people will get on there and buy something without a shower? thats like buying a wedding gift and not being invited to the wedding isnt it ? advice plzzz.I'm saying.. usually at the wedding you get gifts of money for your honeymoon or future together. i know this because ive been married once before and received 2000.00 but.. if you have a honeymoon registry.. is this where that money goes into? that instead of your cardbox.. wont that be how people take it? |

| I would go or call a travel agent and find out...or go to AAA office near you. It sounds like a really good idea and your shower can still be fun...just have a theme of where you two plan on going and have some games and just fun. They can still win prizes and it can still be fun even without presents for you, and plus you can still ask for small stuff and a vacation registry...it just takes time and planning. |

| That would be a decision you need to make. Not many can get you a shower gift and a honeymoon gift. Look at your options and see which will be best. If you choose the honeymoon registry, you should be able to check with any store which does the shower registry and they will help you out.dd |

| It's free at honeyfund.com! I have talked to a wedding etiquette expert and they said that it's not rude and people are doing it more and more. I am not having a shower, that's how I am dealing with that aspect of it! Just one less thing to have to plan!Yes, we are having the honeymoon registry in leiu of the traditional wedding gifts because we have all household items and things of that sort. I am putting our wedding site web address on the save the date cards and the invites and on that site is a link to our registry. The blevinskauaiwedding.com is our wedding site and you can see the link on there for the registry! |

| When was the last time people invited others to their wedding in order to enjoy their company in this happy occasion and not to collect from them? |

| Hi again:Please don't do this. It IS RUDE! The wedding, reception and honeymoon are all to be paid by the bride and groom (with help from family, if available.)Do NOT ask your guests to fund your honeymoon. If you can't afford to go on an extended honeymoon, go for 1 or 2 nights in a nice hotel.This question has been on here before. Of course, there will be those that say "sure, go ahead," but as a guest I would not contribute to a honeymoon.And, NO, you cannot have a shower unless you register for gifts. Well, I guess you could...but what kind of a shower would that be? A very strange one. And many people do not want to be forced into contributing to the honeymoon registry so you will get gifts anyway....and if you don't register...well, you will have to take what you get.Please just register for all the normal things. I find it hard to believe that couples "have everything they need" unless they have some fantastic income and they are getting married for the first time at a later age. |
