Community advice about wedding registries. Share tips about the best places to register, what to include on your wedding registry, and how to best manage the retail experience. Also a place for wedding guests to share advice and answer questions about appropriate gifts and gift giving.
Questions on how to appropriately create a gift registry are some of the more common ones I receive. Guests are not obligated to give a gift, and a bride and groom should never expect one.

If this is your first time sharing a home together, plan out a decor scheme... Read Full Story

“A medieval castle in the Napa Valley? How come I’ve never seen it?” people ask me when I tell them about “my” latest discovery. “Really, there is a medieval castle, complete with a drawbridge, towers, great hall and torture chamber right off Highway 29!”, I say.

Jenny and John had a very successful honeymoon registry! “Our honeymoon included Spanish Language courses in Cusco and hiking the Inca... Read Full Story

“My ATM card won’t work! / I lost my credit card! / I can’t find my passport!” HoneyLuna friends and clients share their stories.... A good friend of mine was in Berlin and didn’t feel her room / hotel was “safe” enough to leave her passport. Rather than either carrying it with her (money belts are your best bet!) or leave it a safe at the hotel front desk, she decided to hide it. Thinking no one would be gross enough to dig in her bag of dirty laundry, she stashed the passport in the bottom... Read Full Story
