This makes me bite my lip and pump my fist in the air

MarriedInAFever

So you think HM registries are tacky? I have a FB friend who is planning on getting married next fall (gotta wait until the divorce is final) and just posted their honeymoon registry to her FB wall and is encouraging all her FB to contribute to the honeymoon of their "DREAMZ". Swear.

Sweet! You're like a famous person. I'm going to tell people that I know you. :)

So how much are you going to contribute to their DREAMZ?

jessienjeremy

Geez....

I had a friend that did a HM registry but only BC they had just redone their entire house and honestly didnt need anything so they did a HM one instead. To my that was fine.

DodgersBride

Wow FB never ceases to amaze me. I have cousin who is like FB fail all the time.

allisong23

Wow. I want to go on a second honeymoon. Is it too late to register for one?

MarriedInAFever

HM registries are such shiit. They're supposed to for guests who want to give the couple something special, like a massage, right? So, this couple just wants money so they can go to Bermuda.

So it looks like this:

Snorkeling Adventure-- $40, quantity requested: 60

Sista, you're not going snorkeling 60 times.

beatlesgirl25

Hahaha, this reminds me of an old poster who did the same thing, and I cannot remember her name for the life of me. But basically her honeymoon registry had ice cream and clothes from Forever 21 on it as part of the itemized "activities." She somehow didn't see how ridiculous that was, despite everyone telling her. I think she was the same one who wanted to give her guests bag lunches for her afternoon reception.

Was this a troll or AE? Is there actually a real person like this in this world.

beatlesgirl25

Totes magotes!

I still haven't had an HM, and I'm surely not paying to DRESS someone so they can go to theirs. Some things you gotta just do on your own, you know?

That girl was a winner.  She was really proud of the fact that they had made their own custom registry website.  If I remember, the setup was really weird - I think they were asking for GCs from various stores, and then told guests to e-mail them and let them know what they'd purchased so they could update the site.

beatlesgirl25

Dodgers, I'm pretty sure she was real. She had a history of regular posts on her local board. Someone on E found her HM registry posts on Chit Chat or something, and that's when all hell broke loose. OH AND, I almost forgot, she had the registry link open so everyone stalked it, of course. She took it down eventually.

I'm pretty sure she was real.  She shared the link.

MarriedInAFever

She probably wanted people to CONTRIBUTE!

Seriously though, why would you contribute to someone's HM that is taking place a year from now and you don't even know if you'll be invited?

beatlesgirl25

LauraT, do you remember her sn? And yes, the website was totally weird and awful (homemade indeed, and badly so). Poor girl.

MIAF, what other treasures are on this registry? I think it would be hilarious to register for anal beads or handcuffs. You know, typical HM supplies and stuff.

No, I'm good at remembering stories, but not the people that go with them.  She was really young, though.

It's all typical stuff:

Snorkeling adventure, $40, Req:60
Adventure on horseback, $50, Req: 6
Catamaran Cruise, $30, Req: 10
Dolphin encounter, $80, Req: 2
Transportation, $25, Req: 60
Scooter rental, $40, Req: 2
Trip contribution, $20, Req: 80

LauraT25

If she already has 'trip contribution' as a thing, why does she need to disguise other donations (like snorkeling 60 times)?  Get her an ugly sundress or something.

That's the thing. I really doubt I would be invited to the wedding. She's pimping it on FB.

beatlesgirl25

Perhaps gifting a "trip contribution" is like saying, "your recreational choices are terrible." Though I'd love a dolphin encounter! I need to register for a honeymoon, clearly.

Something tells me that she is hoping all her FB friends buy her stuff, and that she plans to take it without inviting them to the wedding. Ew.

DodgersBride

I think on FFF this past Friday a girl flamed a girl on her local who posted the link to her HM and ask the knotties on there is they would like to contribute to it.

MIAF- $2400 to go snorkeling. I hope it's at least turtle fuucking season or something.
