Registry Options? Traditional? Honeyfund? Mixed?

I'm doing a mix. We have essentially everything we need for our house right now and would rather spend the money on an experience than fancy china that will get thrown in the back of a cabinet and used maybe once a year.

I'm not a fan of "fund" registries. They're kind of tacky and why pay a fee for someone to give you a gift? If you don't want a ton of physical gifts, just create a small registry and once that's complete, people will default to cash gifts that you can use for whatever you want.

If you have no registry, you forfeit having a shower. We did a small registry on Amazon for bar accessories. My MOH threw us a Stock the Bar couples shower. The great thing about Amazon is that you can register for gift cards, upgrade some of your current items etc all in one place. Any of the money contribution sites charge fees. You could also not register anywhere and hope that people gift you cash.

We did a mix! We want the honeymoon stuff more (and cash), but some older people aren't comfortable with that. Our solution was both!

Why decided by yourself when there are registries that offer it all?! Some guest are very particular and will get offended by a cash fund and not a physical gift but others will prefer it! Personally my fiancé and I are in the same predicament. Currently we're looking at a Zola registry which offers traditional, cash funds and allows you to pick from other stores too.
