Ummmm. This thing I’m about to blog about below, is sort of exactly the kind of thing the wedding world needs. In my humble opinion.
Well here, lemme ask YOU: what do you think you need more of… rolling pins, or a vacation?
If you say ‘rolling pins’ in the comments and you’re not someone who uses a rolling pin only once and then throws it away therefore requiring an infinite supply of rolling pins, well then I’m going to assume you’re being a devil’s advocate. Because that’s just nonsense, and we talk *sense* here. On The Knotty Bride.
Anyway, I’m really excited to have the opportunity to share this business with y’all today. The name is Honeymoon Pixie, and it’s my new best friend. Aaaaand you might wanna consider making it yours. :)
Here’s how it works: you want to go somewhere with your soon-to-be-spouse. You do not want to pay for what you do on your trip. So… who’s gonna pay for what you do on your trip? Yo’ wedding guests, THAT’s who. yayYUH! It’s free, it takes two minutes to set yourself up, and voila — your well on your way to getting your dream vacation bought and paid for. DOY. No seriously, this is a no brainer. Trust me.
I think it’s the perfect alternative for couples who have lived on their own, and who already have most of the household items they would be getting through a typical wedding registry setup.
Here’s my favorite part of it all: there’s a certain beauty to having your family and friends pay into a fund to send you on a vacation that’s going to be spent far, far away from any and all of them.
The fact that it’s super simple means that I give it 5 out of a total 5 possible *Even Bambino Can Do It* Stars.
The whole idea is very similar to a traditional registry, however guests purchase fun activities for you to enjoy during your honeymoon… instead of toasters. You see how this is awesome, yes?
FYI, if you’re not quick to sign up for things you’re not too familiar with, no worries — Honeymoon Pixie consistently receives 5-Star ratings from newlyweds. So you can trust this site. And I really dig the convenience of their “One-Click” method. For example, it’s “one-click” to:
- Print announcement cards
- Print Thank You lists
- Send out pre-written emails
- Implement Facebook integration
- Upload unlimited photos
- Select a beautiful registry theme
- Use a Pre-built Honeymoon Gift Registry
- Redeem your gift funds at anytime
I suggest you start pondering what YOUR dream vacation is comprised of… and if you care to, share it below! I actually really would like some ideas, so I’m very interested in piggybacking off of your ideal getaways for inspiration. If you’re down for that I mean. By the way, I’m easy– I like beaches and water. Beaches near the water, ideally, but that’s not to say I’m above sitting in a bathtub, splashing around and calling it Bali.
You guys, I’d love to know your thoughts! Would you rock a honeymoon registry? It’s already decided in my house.
xoxo! - Alison
