• Deposit a Gift– Your tool for cash registries. As couples are waiting longer to get married they find that they need less and less registry items. So why not use this tool to accept cash gifts to put towards a new house, or a remodel.
• Honeyfund.com – Similar to Deposit a Gift you can ask people to contribute money to your honeymoon. More and more couples are paying for their own weddings which is leaving the honeymoon in the dust. If you are one of these couples maybe a honeymoon registry is for you.
