Honeymoon fund? Yay or nay

So my fiancé and I have lived together for 3 years now. With that being said we don’t want to just add a bunch of unnecessary items onto our registry. What are some must haves? Also what are your thoughts on just having a “Honeymoon Fund” and no registry?

    Yeah the fees get annoying from what I'm seeing as well. We did an Amazon registry as well and registered a bunch of visa gift cards as well in case people prefer to do that.

    I really really don’t like the honeymoon fund idea. I just think it’s really tacky and inappropriate but I guess some couples go that route so whatever makes you happy

    I LOVE the honeyfund idea. That's what we're doing and most of our family and friends WISHED they had done the same thing. Because if you've already been living together why make you're family waste money on things you don't need or just just give you cash. The way we're setting it up is having specific things and activities in our honeymoon that people can buy for us i.e wine tour, dinner at a nice restaurant, or spa day. Then we plan on doing thank you notes with a attached picture from our honeymoon activities that they helped us enjoy! That way it's super personable and they know that they helped us have a trip of a lifetime. Pots and pans can't replace that

    I agree! That’s what we’re doing too. My fiancé and I have lived together for 5 years so we don’t need anything. I’d rather have an experience than material things anyways. I don’t think it’s tacky, it’s like asking for gifts in a regular registry. We have a site set up where our guests can contribute to different activities and things with different amount increments. If the guests choose not to do that and bring cash that’s fine. It will all go towards the same thing.
