- A wish list for 2009 and the Future-
With so much in the media about Honeymoon Registries, we have decided to highlight a few of the reasons that so many engaged couples are turning to them to replace the more traditional wedding gift wish list
- Couples been living together for a long period of time have everything they need for their home.
- In 2009 many couples might feel that they cannot afford the honeymoon they always dreamed of, with thehoneymoonregistry.co.za family and friends can contribute towards this lifelong honeymoon dream and thus solve the problem.
- Couples get married later and later. They quite often have individually established homes and the thought of combining them together is already a problem. When it comes to wedding gifts a travel and honeymoon wish list is the only way to go. ( click here for a list of honeymoon destinations)
- Couples can put whatever items they want on their registry. Perhaps they have chosen a Beach holiday but would love to go on an elephant safari at some stage of their newly married life. This item can be added to the honeymoon registry and used at their discretion.
- Wedding Guests have a clear idea of what the couple would like to enjoy on their honeymoon and they can avoid purchasing gifts that are not wanted and will never be used.
- A honeymoon registry is considerably more personal than a request for cash. Many wedding guests take offence to requests for straight cash. A wedding is a celebration for all and wedding guests want to leave couples with something that will last forever
- With a honeymoon registry you have the possibility of upgrading your honeymoon. Wedding guests may decide to pay the extra tariff on a hotel room upgrade, or they might organize a hot air balloon ride in the early morning for you. With thehoneymoonregistry.co.za you have the opportunity of including items in your honeymoon that you might otherwise not have been able to afford
- Depending on what couples have chosen for their registry and where they have decided to go for their honeymoon. The honeymoon registry affords couples the prospect of extending their honeymoon into the years to come, for example, they could create a honeymoon registry that has one activity to be completed for every year they have been married.
