Gift Registries are very popular, especially for weddings. Traditionally couples have registered for household items such as toasters and blenders. Now we have approached a new era in which most are pre-established prior to marriage or just getting married later in life. Couples need to spend quality time together, get to know each other, and lay the foundation for their life together. They need a vacation, but not just any vacation, a once in a lifetime vacation; a honeymoon. So, why not register for it? Never thought you could trek through Africa, relax your feet in the sands of the Caribbean, or bungee jump off the Sydney Bridge in Australia …Now you can! Honeymoon registries allow your family and friends to send you and your partner into the sunset for your unforgettable vacation. They purchase components of your honeymoon for you. Below are just a few examples.

• And much more!

Interested in a honeymoon registry and want to know how to make it work for you? Below are a few tips to create a successful honeymoon registry.

1. Be Creative - Have fun with your registry and design it to express your personalities. Make your components come alive by using descriptive words to allow your guests to feel as if they are a part of your honeymoon adventure.
2. Upload a Photo - When guests access your registry and they see your photo together as a couple it personalizes it for them. The registry becomes your own unique experience instead of an ordinary department store registry.
3. Know your Guests - You and your partner know your guests and understand their budgets vary. When creating your registry keep in mind the various purchase prices. You don't want to leave anyone out, nor make anyone feel uncomfortable. Encourage participation from all your guests by giving them the option of contributing anywhere from $15 to $100 towards your honeymoon.
4. Get the Word Out - Promote! Promote! Promote! For a successful registry you let everyone know where you are registered. Include registry announcement cards in your engagement letters, shower, and wedding invitations. Advise your immediate family members and bridal party of your gift wishes, so that they may be actively involved in communicating directly to your guests.

You've booked your vacation, created your honeymoon registry and notified your guests. What's next? Sit back, relax and dream, we do everything for you. All you have to do is start packing your bags and get ready for your dream honeymoon!
