Many of today’s engaged couples already have the home basics that you’d traditionally find on a registry, which poses a pressing 21st Century quandary about how to handle the gifting aspect of your wedding.


How Do Cash Gift Registries Work?


A cash gift registry is the perfect solution for today because it allows you to register for monetary gifts towards whatever you’re dreaming of...


  • a fabulous honeymoon
  • romantic newlywed adventures
  • a home down payment
  • things you can’t register for because they’re sold locally by artists or at smaller boutiques

A cash gift registry offers a more personal approach to the gifting process and allows you to let your guests know what’s important to you at this time in your life. Your guests can see exactly how you’ll use their gift money and you won’t have to pretend to want a frying pan that you really don’t need, only to return it later for cash.
