You’ve had a good think about it, and you’ve decided to
have a Honeymoon Registry. Which one do you choose?
As in everything else, not all Honeymoon Registries are equal.
Not only do they have different charges, their charges may
sometimes depend on your own plans.
There are those Registries who have set up charges, and those
that haven’t. Then there are those who have service charges and
set up charges, while others have service charges but no set up
charges. In some cases the service charge will be waived if you
book your Honeymoon through the Honeymoon Registry and a service
charge will be applied if you choose to book your Honeymoon
elsewhere. And others, who do have a set-up fee irrespective of
where you book your honeymoon, will lower the charge if you choose
to book your Honeymoon with them.
Generally speaking, while not all Honeymoon Registries are
connected to Travel agencies or are run by Travel agencies, those
that are have the expectations that you will use them, and this is
reflected in their charges.
The service charge percentage varies from 5% on. The difference
in charges may be reflected in different type of service provided.
In others, the Honeymoon Registry does not supply as full a
service as those who charge a higher fee.
The service charge itself may be added on to the gift,
resulting in the guest paying the amount stipulated for the gift,
plus extra for the service charge. Other Registries allow the
couple to decide whether they want the service fee to be deducted
from the gift amount so that the guest pays the nominated price
only.
When you start comparing facts and figures of the various
Registries, it’s a little bit like buying different brands of
the same item. Compare the similarities and the differences before
making your choice.
