Using TheBigDay honeymoon gift registry allows you to pre-plan what you want to do on your honeymoon or at your destination wedding. Using The Big Day honeymoon registry is so much more personal than asking your guests outright for cash! Guests will choose something special that they would like to give you as a wedding gift. Unlike getting envelopes with checks in them at the wedding and leaving the next day for your honeymoon trip, a honeymoon gift registry allows you to know ahead of time what you will have available for extras and upgrades on your honeymoon or destination wedding. You can register to get the word out early, and have gift money to come in to help with the initial costs of the honeymoon trip as many of our wedding couples do. If you decide to book your travel through TheBigDayTravel.com, your registry could be free! Talk to a travel professional for details.

When you set up your honeymoon registry, we give you a suggested gift amount for each tour or activity per person in that area. However, you are free to ask for whatever you would like. We recommend using varied denominations to accommodate all guests and checking with your travel professional or supplier for exact pricing. All prices vary by location, availability, and are subject to change without notice. You can break down the amounts any way you choose. For example, if an item is going to cost you $200.00, you may ask for "2 gifts of $100.00" or "4 gifts of $50.00," etc.

For Registries with items that are being booked for you or sent directly to you or your hotel, you will find the amount will be preset for you in differing increments.

If you book your travel with us your registry fees can all be waived! (Please talk with our agents for details.) We never charge a set up fee, and during the sign up process we are the only honeymoon registry that allows you to choose whether you'd like the service charge to be added or deducted from each gift amount. If a credit card is used to make a purchase, then a standard 3% credit card fee will be charged. (This fee goes directly to Electronic Merchant Systems, not us, and is for secure credit card processing for your guests.) The service fee charged is 7%. The service charge covers your account management, your wedding web page, order processing, gift announcements, etc. This service eliminates other typical registry costs, such as shipping and gift-wrap charges. Announcement, shower games and gift cards are free and can be downloaded at any time. The honeymoon registry saves your guests time and gas with the comfort and convenience of purchasing their gift from their home or office. (They don't even have to buy another card!) Guests from a distance can also give you a contribution towards your honeymoon with ease using their credit card over the internet, which means no shipping or lugging gifts with them to your wedding destination. Also, there is no hassle or embarrassment of returning or exchanging unwanted gifts for you!

The method used for a gift fund transfer depends on the destination / resort / cruise and the specific gift chosen. Options are:

If you choose to have funds sent directly to you, gifts may be collected at any time, as many times as you'd like as part of our service. Gift funds may be sent either by:

Free ACH bank to bank transfers (US residents only). This is the most efficient and secure method funds go directly into your account.

Having a check mailed to you (regular US post we are not responsible for lost or delayed mail - another reason to "Go Green" with us and use our bank to bank transfer service.)

If you get busy and forget to request your gift money, we will send it 5 days before the honeymoon date and after your honeymoon date.

2. If you chose a hotel partner with the option to "send gift monies to the hotel" your funds will be transferred according to hotel's payment details (for example: funds showing as a room credit, available when you check in).

3. Certain gifts chosen are operated by outside parties and will be organized for you (please see notes on the item when building your registry).

All gift money will be sent direct to you at your contact address or electronically, not to your travel professional or supplier. Remember, you can email us at anytime to collect funds or go to "Request Payment" after you log in.

If your supplier requires you to book in a certain manner, you will find those terms under "Note to Couple" as you build your registry as well as receiving an email notification once the item is purchased for you with booking instructions.
