How to Register for a Honeymoon rather than Wedding Gifts

Honeymoon Registry is better than 3 toasters!

Your Honeymoon does not have to break your bank account. You can actually upgrade your Honeymoon by registering for Honeymoon fun, travel and extra cash.
For younger couples, a registry for china and appliances to set up house is appropriate. But with so many people marrying later than their twenties, and possibly not for the first time, gifts of blenders are not needed. Instead the trend is to register for your honeymoon.

Things You'll Need

• internet connection
• honeymoon destination

Instructions

1. 

   Congratulations on your upcoming marriage! Sometimes we have enough to marry and not much left for our honeymoon. And my rule of thumb with traveling is to expect to pay twice as much as you would think (therefore you have the extra money to do more when you are there and may even come home with some too.) Nobody wants to be on a budget during one of the most important trips of their lives. Here is how to register for romantic honeymoon gifts instead of more electric appliances.

2. 

   A wonderful website to help you plan your trip and register for honeymoon extras is: www.ChicTravelDeals.com. Log on and start by signing into the deals and steals newsletter - you can use that later. Then find the Extras tab and click on it. Look for a block that reads Honeymoon Registry and click on that next.

Tips & Warnings

• This is a great resource for any engaged couple - because it is FREE and it helps defer the cost of a honeymoon. No one wants to start out in their marriage with honeymoon debt.

• Encourage other couples to check this Honeymoon Registry out and show them how affordable some of the registry gifts can be. You may be surprised how stress free a couple can be when the honeymoon is already funded!
