Cash Registry



Not sure what to ask for on your wedding registry? Worried you might register then change you mind about certain items? Don't want to deal with transporting gifts from your shower to your home? We found a solution to all of your concerns, Cash Registry!

Cash registry is an online gift registry that allows guests to contribute whatever amount they feel comfortable with towards a specific gift. For example, if you want a new couch that costs $2,000, multiple guests can contribute $100 to help pay for that one gift.


The positives to Cash Registry are truly endless:

Couples can ask for pricier items than on a typical registry. Such as, their honeymoon, living room set, dining room set, etc. 

Guests are able to contribute however much they feel comfortable.

Guests know they are helping give the new couple something they will absolutely use and love!

Couples can change their mind about their registry. If they register for a specific couch, but find another one they want, they can change it! Or if they decide they don't want a couch at all, they can just remove the couch from the registry and all the money already put towards the couch can be put towards a different gift or taken simply as cash.

Couples do not necessarily have to register for "stuff", you can register for your honeymoon, your favorite charity, gift cards, etc.

This essentially allows couples to ask for cash without directly stating they would like cash gifts.



Couples who do a cash registry still have the option to have a wedding shower, if they would like. Instead of taking hours to open all of your gifts at the shower, you have more opportunity to play games and mingle with their friends.





Seem too good to be true? Registration on most of these sites is free, however they do receive a portion of each gift given (they believe it is no more than the tax each guest would pay on a purchase)



If you are interested in doing a cash registry, try one of these sites for more information: ourwishingwell.com or depositagift.com

Or any others you find, there are plenty companies that do Cash Registry!
