My fiance and I really don't want to do a registry, instead, we'd like them to contribute to funding our honeymoon. But everyone we tell that to says we're going to end up getting tacky gifts we don't want because people want to get us a gift. We've decided to do a small registry for basic things, but don't want to include that in our invitations. Instead, we'd like to include something about helping to fund our honeymoon. How do we ask our guests for a monetary gift without sounding tacky or rude. (note: we don't want to do a travel registry site because of the precentage they take from each gift)
Feeling trapped.
