It's Patti Polluconi... we were initially put in touch with Dave from their site, and he was less than helpful. Patti has totally made up for it though! PM me if you want her email.

Also, it's not truly a "Registry" but my TA has set up a separate fund for Tom and I, so I listed it as a "registry" on our website. Basically, pepole can call in to her and put down money towards our trip and then she will let us know how much it is. So, with any luck, we'll get enough $$ through that (or our Honeymoon Wishes - Honeymoon Registry where your wedding gift is a Romantic Honeymoon account) that any money we save can all go towards actual wedding stuff and not our rooms. If we end up with more than enough to cover our trip ... she'll cut us a check for the remainder to put towrds whatever we want. And she's keeping a list so we know who contributes in order to send "thank you cards."

One of my couples did honeymoon registry and they had tons of people purchasing things for them. They registered things like romantic dinner and other stuff. They loved it and their guests had fun being a part of it. It's a fun experience for both parties and the bride & groom are able to save ton of money during the honeymoon. As Martha says its' a good thing :0)

I think it's a great idea too! a friend of mine did it through their hotel in Maui...I think the Princeville? They too pretty much had everything and just wanted to "treat" themselves to spa, surfing lessons, snorkeling, etc. I tried to buy for them, but it was too close to their departure...one thing with their registry that was a bummer, had to buy weeks maybe even months in advance of their stay. Don't know the details of the other HM registires. I say go for it!!
