How to ask for honeymoon contributions?!

Missmeeru, 16 December, 2010 at 16:24 Posted on Honeymoons & Getting Married Abroad 0 1

Hi

I would just like to know how to word how to ask for honeymoon contributions as a wedding gift without sounding cheeky as myself and Husband to be live together and we dont require any bottom drawer gifts!

Thanks

Claire

    We are wanting to do the same... I think we are going to put on our invitations that instead of a gift register we would appreciate any contributions towards our honeymoon spends. We are getting a money pot and having that at the reception so people can put into it. You can also set up a wishing well online where guests can contribute. If you look around online you will probably find a template for how to word it on the invites

    We're doing the same. Most travel agents can manage a gift list for you which you can send out with the wedding invites.

    Friends have used Trailfinders. We have ours with Travel Counsellors. Our agent, Cathie, has been amazing - she really knows her stuff and goes well out of her way to help us out and find hotels and flights within our budget.

    She did warn me that you generally have to pay for the holiday yourself first and then get the money back, as most people don't pay into a gift list until a few days before the wedding (I know I'm guilty of this - for friends' weddings I end up doing online gift lists on the day itself, or even afterwards!).
