Couple's FAQ

This honeymoon gift registry is similar to a store gift registries, whereby you register for items you wish to receive as wedding gifts. This registry allows you to register components of your honeymoon or destination wedding online. Your wedding guests will then give you portions of your vacation as a wedding gift! Instead of asking for a crock pot, you could receive an upgrade on your honeymoon suite, a couple's massage or a romantic dinner as wedding gifts.

Receiving all the wonderful gifts your friends and family purchase for you is simple. When you set up the registry, you may choose from one of the following methods: have everything sent direct to you OR sent direct to your hotel.

How your gift monies are transferred will be determined by your chosen payment method, your resort and the specific gifts purchased. Please see "Notes to Couple" on each item when building your registry or, if you are logged in and have gifts already see your Full Accounting.

You may choose to have your gifts sent either:

DIRECT TO YOU: If you choose to have funds sent directly to you, gifts may be collected at any time, as many times as you'd like. You may:

• Send straight to your US bank account with our free unlimited ACH bank to bank direct deposit. This is the most efficient and secure method.
OR
• Have a check mailed to you via regular US postal service.
  We cannot be responsible for lost mail -a great reason to "Go Green" and use the bank to bank transfer service.

DIRECT TO THE TOUR COMPANY: Certain gifts chosen will be coordinated for you with the actual service provider. For your convenience these gift purchases will have the funds transfer directly to the provider and they will organize the activity with you. Your friends and family will love that they are giving you real gifts to enjoy from your honeymoon registry!

We charge a small service & handling fee to maintain a professional full service registry for you, your friends and family. This service & handling fee provides an ad free registry experience, wedding website and social networking tools with the highest level of security, encryption and insurance. Our team is here to answer calls toll free, process checks and credit card transactions of your guests.

You may choose whether you'd like the service & handling fee to be added or deducted from each gift amount. Adding it to the transaction means that the purchaser will be charged a 9.65% service & handling fee at check-out. Deducting the service & handling fee will have the gift amount transfer at 7% less than the listed amount to you, with the gift purchaser paying a reduced service fee of 2.65%. If the fee is added to the gift, purchasers can receive a 2.65% discount if they choose to mail a check directly bringing the total service fee to 7%.

Guests from around the world can make a contribution towards your honeymoon with ease which means no shipping or carrying gifts with them to your wedding destination. Please feel free to call us with any questions.

The service charge covers your account management, unlimited fund transfers, coordination with partner resorts, cruise lines, and tour providers; your wedding web site, order processing, gift announcements, email wizard, merchant account fees that we are charged and toll free live customer service to assist your guests. We ensure that your guest's transactions are processed at the highest rate of secure SSL encryption, and protected by a $3,000,000.00 insurance policy against identity theft and fraud.

This is not simply a fee for processing monies; it's a fee so that we can continue to provide outstanding services for you. To run this registry company, we have a dedicated team of people providing a high quality and professional service.

Store registries carry costs such as shipping, taxes and gift-wrap charges to cover the services. The service fee this registry charges is often less than these charges imposed on your guests. The honeymoon registry saves your guests time and gas with the comfort and convenience of purchasing their gift from their home or office. And, there is no hassle or embarrassment of returning or exchanging unwanted gifts for you!

We never actually book any registry items, airfare or accommodations for you. We encourage you to work closely with our travel professional partners who can help design the honeymoon trip that is uniquely yours. If you'd like to be contacted by one of our travel professional partners, click here.

If your supplier requires you to book in a certain manner, you will find these terms under "Notes to Couple" as you build your registry and in an email notification with booking instructions once the item is purchased.

All gift money will be sent direct to you or your destination in accordance with your options and preferences, not to your travel professional. It is best to have funds that are transferred to you by bank to bank transfer or you can choose to have checks mailed to you. You can email, call or log-in at anytime to collect funds.

As you select items for your honeymoon registry, in the "Notes to Couple" we give you a suggested gift amount for each tour or activity. These prices vary and can be listed per person, per couple or per item. All prices vary by location, availability and are subject to change without notice. Be sure to make note of these highlighted Notes to Couple as you choose your gifts.

We recommend using varied denominations to accommodate all your guest's budgets. You can break down the amounts into smaller amounts and ask for more of each item. For example, if an item is going to cost you $200.00, you may ask for 2 gifts of $100.00, 4 gifts of $50.00, or 8 gifts of $25.00.

Some of the items are provided by specific vendors and may need to be prearranged by you or will be sent directly to you or your hotel. With these items you will find the amount preset to cover the full cost.
