Are you looking for something different to register for? Every year couples get married and register for their household needs to start their new life together. But what if you already live together or have everything you need? Registering for your honeymoon has become the new trend. We all know how expensive a wedding can be, add on the cost of traveling today and you will be spending a lot more money. A honeymoon gift registry is a great way for you and your soon to be husband/wife to get away and spend some time together. Guests will also love that they can purchase you a romantic dinner for two or a sightseeing tour instead of the same old linens and dishes.

Yes, we are thrilled to share that we are happily engaged. Thank you for all of your support and well wishes – it means the world to us. We consider this to be a very private matter, but we wanted you to hear it straight from us. – Ashlee and Pete”
