It is tempting to get caught up in the “registry rush.” The thrill of finding the perfect items to feather your nest is overpowering. However, why not say I DON’T Need to Register Everywhere. Register wisely. For example, there are many registries that focus strictly on your honeymoon. Back in July we featured Honeymoon Wishes which allows guests to not only contribute to travel expenses, but they can gift you packages such as sporting excursions, spa treatments, dining experiences and the list goes on! You will benefit by having your honeymoon paid for and enjoy knowing that your friends and family were a part of such a wonderful experience.

Castle Key babydoll lingerie by La Perla will open the entry to a blissful honeymoon for you and your groom. I hear him knocking!

¡Caliente! LAMA – Latin America in the Modern Age brings us accessories that infuse vibrant hues and rich patterns to create a travel experience that is anything but mundane.

Venice Beach has long been a haven for folks with a laid back outlook on life. If you’re looking for a place to rest your free thinking head that is environmentally friendly and quaint, have I got the place for you!  You and your honey must see the Venice Beach Eco Cottages. Historic 1922 one bedroom bungalows have been converted (with green practices, of course) to restful retreats for the relaxed couple. Each unique cottage was restored from the ground up using earth friendly, organic and repurposed materials. The eclectic interiors have been fashioned from flea market finds and vintage collections. The decorator artfully devised new ways of utilizing the treasures in unique ways, such as turning a record cabinet into a bathroom vanity! The 3-7 night minimum stay makes the Venice Beach Eco Cottages the ideal spot for a local honeymoon destination.

Green Catering Tip: Hire a caterer that incorporates sustainable practices such as using local, organically grown products.

Often a couple comes together having all of the necessities to put a home together rendering a gift registry obsolete. Honeymoon Wishes solves this dilemma by creating a gift registry for your honeymoon. You choose the destination, your guests decide what treat to give you. They can contribute to accommodations, transportation, entertainment/activities, dining and even spa treatments. Here’s to wishes come true!

Patent leather isn’t only for Catholic schoolgirls; it looks great in swimsuits, too.  Lisa Curran has a look to “suit” everyone’s taste. A girl should always look stylish on her honeymoon.

Some things just shouldn’t or don’t mix…oil and water, orange juice and toothpaste and your dirty and clean knickers.  Use the before and after lingerie bag from Dogeared so you can spend your honeymoon mixing a gin and tonic rather than your laundry.
