What is a Honeymoon Registry?
Don't want or need another toaster?? Register for your dream honeymoon instead!!
eHoneymoonRegistry offers couples a way to register for their honeymoon. It works just like a traditional gift registry except the couple can register for elements of their honeymoon experience as a wedding gift. Instead of registering for another toaster that you don't need, you can enjoy a 'Champagne Breakfast in Bed' or a 'Guided Snorkeling Trip', for example. Couples make a wish list for items pertaining to their dream honeymoon experience that their friends and family can purchase as wedding gifts.
How does a Honeymoon-Registry work?
eHoneymoonRegistry offers a wedding registry where couples can request non-traditional wedding gifts, a 'Champagne Breakfast in Bed', a 'Couples Massage' or a 'Guided Snorkeling Trip', for example, to be used on your honeymoon. Friends and family purchase these experiences from your online registry, and you use the gift value towards that portion of your honeymoon, so you don't have to worry about getting another toaster that you don't need.
eHoneymoonRegistry is way to ensure that couples receive items they really want and will use/enjoy, as well as offer gifts that their guests will actually enjoy giving. What is more fun than receiving a candlelit dinner on the beach, a couples massage or a snorkeling trip... a gift that you will remember forever.

Do I have to plan my honeymoon with eHoneymoonRegistry?
No! Honeymoon-Regisitry.ca is not a travel company; you can plan your honeymoon with the travel agent of your choice or book your own travel.
What does a Honeymoon-Registry look like?

You can customize your registry with photos and change the details of each item. Gift ideas range from 'Champagne Breakfast in Bed', a 'Guided Snorkeling', 'Couples Spa Treatments' to 'Accommodations' and 'Airfare'.
