"Honeymoon jar"

That is incredibly rude and so is a dollar dance. Never ever ever suggest to your guests to give you cash. Not on the invitation, not in the form of a honeyfund, not in a cute poem. It's tacky. Enjoy your guests. If you really want cash and have everything you need for your home, create a small registry with minor upgrade items like dish towels. People will most likely get the hint.

Seriously? How about putting a jar on your table at home and contributing to it each week. Extremely rude.

Noooooo

I think part of the tackiness of this is that it insinuates that whatever gift or well wishes your guests did bring is not "enough" for you. When FI go to weddings we bring a nice gift or check that we think is an appropriate amount based on our relationship with the couple and finances at the moment. This is basically asking your guests to open their pockets just a little bit wider...they're either going to think you're rude, or feel guilty and obligated to give more even if they don't want to. And if you use the argument that "it's just loose change and small bills that they won't miss!" then why can't you save your own loose change and small bills?

This is really tacky. I have never ever seen this at a wedding, thankfully. I'm not sure how I would react, but I do know that I would never put money in it. Don't beg for money. Especially, as PPs have pointed out, these people have likely already bought you a gift (or two) or brought money or a check in a card.

Very very very tacky. If people want to give you money, they don't need to be and shouldn't be told to do so.

No. Just no.

No! No honeymoon tip jar, no honeymoon registry, no money dance. No to all of it. If someone wants to give you cash they will put it in a card and bring it with them.

Sorry but if its for people to put money that they are already going to give you then why would you not do a card box instead? Am i supposed to take the money out of the card that i signed and wrote well wishes and shove it in a jar? I have never heard of someone bringing cash to a wedding with out it being in a card.

I think they are gross. A wedding isn't a girl scout troop fundraiser. Why don't people want their wedding to be a classy, grownup celebration?

No. Lord have mercy. Begging for money on your wedding day?

@Beka - no, you are supposed to keep the money in the card, but also give them more in this tacky jar.

As @twostep pointed it, it seems as though you're begging for more. I'm already bringing you a card with cash in it. If you want to use it on your honeymoon, be my guest. But that's all the cash you're getting from me, and likely all the cash I have on me. If I happened to have some loose bills or change, I'd probably use it to tip the bartender, not add on to the gift I'm already giving you.

Oh hayll nah.

2016beach - There's nothing wrong with strippers. Everyone earns their money in different ways.

That being said, there's no place for guests to pull out their wallets at a wedding.

What I stated above was an observation I've had from weddings I've attended. There was no card box, no registry, no wedding websites... Not too many people I know do a lot of that, I had never even heard of a wedding website until I started wedding planning. I would never expect anyone to give me a card with money in it PLUS put money in a honeymoon jar. In my example, the honeymoon jar is where everyone puts cards/money/gift cards.

Tacky

This is definitely tacky. I will admit I'm doing a dollar dance, I'm polish and doing it for cultural reasons, but I'm still putting out fake dollars or coins that guests can redeem for a dance, because I really want the one on one time with my guests and not their money.
