Couple's Frequently Asked Questions

What is an anniversary gift registry?
This anniversary gift registry is similar to a store gift registries, whereby you register for items you wish to receive as anniversary gifts. This registry allows you to register components of your anniversary or destination anniversary online. Your anniversary guests will then give you portions of your vacation as a anniversary gift! Instead of asking for a crock pot, you could receive an upgrade on your anniversary suite, a couple's massage or a romantic dinner as anniversary gifts.

Will the gift money be sent to our travel agent?
All gift money will be sent direct to you or your destination in accordance with your options and preferences, not to your travel professional. It is best to have funds that are transferred to you by bank to bank transfer or you can choose to have checks mailed to you. You can email, call or log-in at anytime to collect funds.

How will we know how much to ask for?
As you select items for your anniversary registry, in the "Notes to Couple" we give you a suggested gift amount for each tour or activity. These prices vary and can be listed per person, per couple or per item. All prices vary by location, availability and are subject to change without notice. Be sure to make note of these highlighted Notes to Couple as you choose your gifts.

We recommend using varied denominations to accommodate all your guest's budgets. You can break down the amounts into smaller amounts and ask for more of each item. For example, if an item is going to cost you $200.00, you may ask for 2 gifts of $100.00, 4 gifts of $50.00, or 8 gifts of $25.00.

Some of the items are provided by specific vendors and may need to be prearranged by you or will be sent directly to you or your hotel. With these items you will find the amount preset to cover the full cost.
