Not registered/would rather have honeymoon money

Don't do it

There are no ways to word this tactfully. Just don't register, people will get the hint

Just don't register.

That's enough of a hint for people.

There is no verbiage, sentence, or cutesy poem that will get this across tactfully.

People know how to bring cash to weddings.

When you go to weddings, don't you typically give cash? I do 98% of the time. You don't need to say anything. You will get money.

I've tried NOT REGISTERING... but we've had so many people question us, so they're not getting the hint

Don't do it unless you're wanting to be rude and tacky. Adults know how to give money they'll take the hint

There's no polite/cute way to ask for money. By not having a registry, people will get the hint and give cash/checks.

ETA: Just tell them you guys already have your home established. You can't tell people what to give as a gift either. So let it go. Save your own money for your honeymoon and whatever people choose to give you will just be extra.

There is not a tactful way to say it because it's rude. Just have a small registry and people get the hint. You can always use an upgrade on something! And with Amazon registry you can register for non-traditional wedding gifts.

Believe me, they most likely got the hint. Everyone brings cash to a wedding. Gifts are typically brought/given at the bridal shower.

ETA: Seconding what MMB just said, too.

If you'd rather have honeymoon money, pick up a side job if possible. Don't put this on your guests to fund for you.

You can make a honeymoon registry instead and have people buy pieces of your honeymoon

Also, another thing I just thought of: you typically don't tell people what you're getting them as a gift.

It might not seem like they got the hint to you, but they probably did.

I'd feel weird saying, "Yeah, I'm bringing you guys x-amount of money in your wedding card."

Seriously, be a broken record: "We aren't registered and don't plan on it. We have everything we need home-wise and don't feel the need to upgrade anything."

Just make a small registry. People who want to give you money will give you money regardless if you have a registry or not.

I don't know why do many people post about these when there are already SO many threads about them! Can WW outlaw these posts about HoneyFunds or MoneyFunds whatever you want to call them?

Just don't register, people will get it.

Just tell people you aren't registered. They will figure it out. People aren't that stupid.

Just keep telling people you have all you need so you don't have a registry. It's considered rude to ask for money.

We got many gifts at our wedding, but we also got cash, even though we had 2 registries so people will and do give cash no matter what. If you have no registries, they won't really have any other options.

Please keep in mind if you don't have a registry, you must decline any offer you receive for a bridal shower. Bridal showers are for gifts off your registry.

There isn't a tactful way to ask for money. You should stick with just not registering. If guests ask you where you are registered, just answer with, "We aren't registered, but thank you for asking!" And stop there! By saying you aren't registered, you are saying there wasn't anything specific that you needed and your guests will realize money would be a more useful gift.

What do you think, that people won't buy you gifts at all if you aren't registered? Some will automatically give you cash. Some will ask you what you want, in which case you can say, "We really have all the things we need, and are just saving for our honeymoon." And some wouldn't have looked at your registry anyway, because they always just get you stuff they think you'd like. So the result is exactly what it would have been if you'd asked for cash, but without the tackiness.

@Nicole, honeymoon registries don't give you the full percent of the money that your guests give to the couple. Also, they're not paying for "pieces" as advertised, because the couple just gets the money in full and can do with it what they want. They aren't obligated to do as those "pieces" on their registry describe.

Why would this be any different than a gofundme?? You're rudely asking for money either way for something that is not necessary!
