Honeymoon gift list help

LotBot, 5 September, 2014 at 10:20 Posted on Planning 0 1

Sorry if this is a duplicate post - had difficulty searching!

We've decided to put together a Honeymoon gift list. I really hate the idea of doing a gift list but have had a fair few people ask for one.

I've tried putting one together this morning and am unsure of what to put on there. We're going to Egypt on 9th March next year for two weeks.

Can anyone give ideas???

TIA xx Smiley smile

    I didn't do a honeymoon gift list as such but asked for contributions towards our honeymoon. It's already booked and paid for but will take the pressure off massively if after the wedding we will have some cash as we used and overdraft to put it on.

    I just wrote on the invitation 'your presence is enough bit if you feel you would like to give a gift we would really appreciate contributions towards our honeymoon'

    My mom said most people will give money anyway! X

    We're going to Egypt too! Smiley laugh

    You could ask your travel agent if they do anything. I have been to weddings before where they have used a website and you could pay for all or part of a trip or experience. We're hoping that we'll use our gifts to go and see the pyramids, maybe learn to scuba dive etc. This is what we've said:

    An Ode to the Gift List

    In a wedding invitation,
    You usually find some lists,
    For venues, menus and hotels,
    And also for the gifts

    But this one is unusual,
    It comes in a different way,
    As we're not asking for presents,
    But for something else today

    Now please don't think we're selfish,
    Or that this comes from greed,
    But we've lived together for a while,
    So there's not that much we need

    We would appreciate help though,
    To send us on our way,
    And allow us to have our honeymoon,
    In a land quite far away

    So now the point of all this rhyme,
    The thing that we would like,
    Isn't towels, toasters or microwaves,
    But pounds and pence alike

    And now you know the reason,
    Behind this cheeky accord,
    Please help to give us memories,
    Of a dream honeymoon abroad

    Please do not feel obliged to give a gift,
    it’s your presence and not your presents that is important to us
