Honeymoon fund jar?

Erin, I think most people understand that couples will be having sex on their honeymoon. I'm not sure how that's weird? I think it's pretty weird if you don't wanna tap dat ass on your honeymoon.

Don't most couples have sex all the time? With that reasoning asking for a sheet set could be construed as "sex sheets". It's just silly. I personally would rather send my friends somewhere cool than buy something off a home registry. I am also 37 and my friends mostly got married older. They don't register for a lot of home items because they have everything. The honeyfund is just easy and convenient. It takes 2 minutes. And of course those friends are telling me to do one so they can give to mine.

Mikayla!! YAASSSSSS!!!! LMAO!

Well now I'm going to call all bedding "sex sheets".

Yes. Every item on a registry is for that you're completely right. Like a sex keurig or a sex Dutch oven.

A honeymoon is for relaxation, rest, and SEX. I personally would feel very uncomfortable asking for money from my friends and family in any form, and especially for a vacation where GUESS WHAT WERE GONNA BANG. But I guess that's just the way I was raised!

OP, to answer your question please don't do this. If you're looking for more monetary gifts then create a very small registry and most people will bring cash in a card

@Erin, you may have contemporaries that are fine with the idea of a honey fund but do you have any older relatives coming? For every friend or 2 that is fine with it, you probably have a guest that will be offended by a money grab. People know how to give money. You don't have to ask for it. Most people know that a lot couples now a days "have everything they need". Still doesn't make it less rude to ask for money. Why risk offending more guests than you realize? Most people won't tell you're they are offended but it will change how they feel about you.

Erin what do you mean as if the honeymoom is a reason to have sex?

That IS practically whole reason to go on honeymoon. If you're not going on your honeymoon to have sex why are you going?

Not having sex on your honeymoon is weird.

You are getting money from your guests. Honeymoon jar is double dipping imo

We are taking a honeymoon six months after our wedding due to our work schedules. He can not take time off in the fourth quarter. I see it as a win win. We are booked and paid for our honeymoon but an added six month to save more money. If funds are tight. You don't have to go right away.

Don't do this OP! It's extremely rude to your guests!! We took the cash money that we received in cards from the wedding and spent it during our honeymoon.

Erin know what else takes 2 minutes? Stopping by the ATM, taking out $100 and sticking it in a card. No one said you had to buy a blender.

I'm dying over here with "sex sheets"

For whatever reason FH and I have the best sex when we are on vacation, and I am looking forward to a sex filled honeymoon. THAT WE WILL PAY FOR OURSELVES. I will also be quite pleased with a blender from the registry that I will make margaritas in and toast to EW and her damn seven dollars that she pays for the service charge. Here's to you EW.

FH and I haven't had sex yet, so you can bet we're going to be having lots of it on the honeymoon.

A honeymoon really is a sex vacation.

I personally find that super tacky. Guests will be bringing you gifts already. Don't make them feel like they have to "donate" to your honeymoon fund as well. Instead, maybe make a very small registry of household items you may need to upgrade. People will get the hint when you have a small list of things to choose from and they'll likely bring you money as a gift instead. But having the honeymoon jar just makes it look like you have your hand out.

I feel like this all comes down to one simple fact: a traditional registry is just a guideline. Honeymoon registries are "here pay for me!!!" There's a big difference.

Also, if you don't like toasters. Just GIVE THEM THE MONEY. No third party is necessary.

I didn't say we won't be having sex. That's not the purpose of it though in my opinion. FH and I love to travel and experience different cultures together and be away from day to day life. Who doesn't love a nice vacation? You're saying if I don't want to buy a blender than don't. That's my point. I don't. I give to the honeyfund if they have one. Yes I could go to the ATM but if they want honeyfund money. Why not give them what they want? It doesn't bother me.

Mrs. P- I'm sure I'll have guests not interested in a honeyfund. For that reason I'll be registering for "sex sheets" lol! We have a couple things we would like for our home. The people who want to give a gift but don't want to give cash/honeyfund can buy us an item or give us nothing at all. I don't care either way.

If you want some sort of honeymoon fund, I say include it in your registry along with a few household items. I personally don't have a problem with honeymoons funds as part of a larger registry. I feel like it's a convenient, secure option for guests who want to give you cash or who want to help you with a larger purchase but can't afford to buy one of the higher-priced items on a registry. Definitely don't make people open their wallets at the actual wedding though.

Beware, you will get roasted for this on here though. Most are vehemently opposed to any sort of honeymoon fund, a small monitory of us are OK with them if they are done more subtly.

Nope. Tacky AF idea.
