Man. When did my post count get so high?

I need to start doing more work at work.

Work is overrated.

Ditto.

You''re right. What was I thinking?

Morning hot stuffs!

LOL, psycho hose beast. That''s my favorite movie.

I did a HM registry AND and normal registry! We''re greedy.

Nice Sunny, it''s one of my faves too!

We seriously don''t need house stuff so do we really register? I mean we are having a small wedding so can''t people just give us million dollar checks?

That would be awesome. But from the sounds of it, just do a HM registry!!! That sounds like it would be perfect for you, WL!

ETA: How rude of me to not say good morning to you, sunny!!!

 

[Hudson_Hawk]

Could you register at your local wine shop?

I know it''s tacky to ask for specific things, but you could ask everyone to get you a bottle of wine so you can start a collection. Then you can have one bottle with each anniversary. You''d have to tell everyone the purpose so they know to buy varieties that need to age...

LOL! That would be fantastic. We used honeymoonwishes.com. They charged a 7% fee on whatever''s purchased that you can either have the gift giver pay or you pay for. If honeyfund is less use them!

Love the wine idea too, HH!

VC, I''m sooooo offended.

And how did you let people know you were registered at these places??

 

[Lauren8211]

Honeyfund was free, thats why we used it.

We didnt use the PayPal option, as that cost money (via paypal, not Honeyfund)

 

[sunnyd]

Wedding website!

Yeah, they had the option for you to upgrade for money, and have a wedding website/ more options, but the basic HM registry was free.

So does it work no matter where you go? Do you get money or actual things? What if we are staying at an all inclusive and food and alchohol is already incuded? Do you like the 87 questions game?

You literally put up whatever you want.

You could put ''Honeymoon Buttsecks" in Tahiti and charge 50 bucks and someone can sign up for it and then send you a check/cash/PayPal.

So basically you just get money?

Exactly. But you''re sneaky about it.

[sunnyd]

WL, you can do whatever you want with them. We had stuff like dinner out, massages, champagne... You can assign whatever value you want to it. I think we had $100, $200 and $40 for the above examples. Then when someone gifts you something, you can request that the money be sent to you, or honeymoonwishes could even ACH it into your bank account. It''s a really cool idea!

Yup - nice dinners, little trips, stuff like that.

It worked out perfectly.

Hahaha that''s what I thought!! That is NOT a gift. Unless he wants super fancy $30 body wash instead of the usual Gillette.

Haha. That''s hilarious! I''ve never met a guy who was particular about body stuff! Hair products, maybe, but not body wash or shaving cream!

 

[CNOS128]

Elle, you might miss school, but I''m here to remind you how horrible finals are.

HH- did he give you his present list or his shopping list?!
