Sit back and relax because your dream honeymoon is taken care of. No, you didn't win the lottery; you just used your wedding registry to its full potential. A honeymoon fund lets your guests give you money for airfare, accommodations and travel excursions as a wedding gift. That's right, you don't need to register for matching linens and a blender. Instead, start a honeymoon fund on The Knot so your friends and family can give you a present you'll actually use. Creating a cash wedding registry is the perfect opportunity to get all married life has to offer (like a two-week vacation to Italy). Also, what's great about honeymoon funds is that it works like a traditional registry. All you have to do is include the link on your wedding website for easy guest access or use an all-in-one registry tool to combine your honeymoon fund with the top wedding registry items. To help you get started, we've rounded up the best honeymoon fund registry websites. Read everything you need to know about these sites to pick the one that's perfect for your needs.

1. The Knot Honeymoon Fund

    While we're not going to rank every honeymoon fund registry, if we did, The Knot's would take first place. Cash funds from The Knot look like traditional registry items from The Knot Registry and are even listed beside them with a picture and price. When users click on a block, they'll be directed to a custom product description written by you—clever, right? You can create one block for your entire experience or spread the love across with specific honeymoon fund ideas like airline tickets, hotel rooms, a relaxing couples massage at your resort and a beachside bottomless brunch. ​​You can create cash funds of any amount—whether it's a fixed total or an option for guests to contribute whatever they like toward your goal. You also have the option to hide the goal amount from guests, if you want to. Thanks to the all-in-one registry from The Knot, setting up a honeymoon registry has never been easier. Plus, the process is super straightforward for guests. They'll love the option to contribute to your travels and you'll love the help. Want to know more about the set up process? Here's how The Knot honeymoon fund works.

    • Honeymoon Fund Fees: It's free, which means there's no percentage taken out of the cash total or a set up fee. There is a 2.5% credit card transaction fee added to each guest's final total at checkout.
    • What Couples Love: Wondering what The Knot honeymoon fund reviews say? Besides being able to have your wedding website and registry in one place, couples love how they can continuously check their pacing towards their dream honeymoon and see who contributed. Trust us, you'll appreciate this feature when you're writing wedding thank-you cards.

    2. Traveler's Joy

      Launched in 2004, Traveler's Joy is one of the oldest honeymoon fund websites. Hundreds of thousands of couples have used the service to register for a variety of travel-related cash funds, like an upgrade to first-class airfare, romantic excursions for two and even a new camera to capture the vacay memories. To get started, set up a free honeymoon fund with Traveler's Joy, then customize your page with images and descriptions, videos, photos and travel plans. And if you need help setting it up, their Instant Registry will auto-fill your wish list with premade themes based on location-specific items. Of course, no matter what items you add to your wish list, everything will be redeemed as cash to use as you see fit. The best part of Traveler's Joy? Guests can easily find your travel fund registry by searching your wedding website on The Knot. This also means you can register on both sites for a honeymoon fund.

      • Honeymoon Fund Fees: Traveler's Joy has no sign-up or upgrade fees, offers 100% free gift redemptions in the US, and all gifts provided by cash or check come at no cost to both you and your guests. If a credit card is used, a 2.95% service fee is deducted from the gift amount. Guests also have a small checkout fee that covers the credit card processing fee.
      • What Couples Love: Couples appreciated being able to make simple edits to their honeymoon options and having the ability to easily share the registry with loved ones.

      3. SPUR Experiences

        With over 4,000 adventures to choose from, SPUR Experiences aims to deliver the most options for your wedding honeymoon fund. Not only can you register for spa days, wine tastings and adrenaline junkie options, you can also ask your guests to put money towards tickets for concerts, sporting and performing arts events. Want to know about more offerings SPUR Experiences has over other honeymoon fund sites? Couples get a 20% discount for any remaining items on their registry and can get free bonus gifts depending on what their loved ones purchase. And for those who want to keep the gifting costs low for guests, SPUR Experiences has the right thing for you. For gifts over $100, SPUR Experiences allows customers to do a "partial purchase." This means the gift's cost is split into 10 partial payments with each priced at 10% of the total cost. Our favorite perk about this honeymoon fund is that it's linked with The Knot, which means once you've created your wedding website (and added your wedding QR code to your invitations) you can easily put your SPUR Experiences registry on your site and get the ball rolling.

        • Honeymoon Fund Fees: Sign up is free and couples and guests aren't charged fees for purchasing gifts.
        • What Couples Love: Couples can't stop raving about how SPUR Experiences vouchers don't expire. Also, if you don't want an experience you received anymore, you can exchange the gift for credit towards other options.

        4. Hitchd

          Design-minded couples will appreciate the ability to create their honeymoon fund on Hitchd. The honeymoon fund site is dedicated exclusively to registries and focuses heavily on registry page design and a modern mobile and desktop experience for couples and wedding guests. Start by selecting a layout and font, then choose from gift idea design templates and honeymoon fund wording options that are completely customizable. If you're worried about asking for cash gifts, Hitchd's thoughtful design ensures guests still feel the time and thought you put into your registry. Plus, they offer thank-you cards where you can add photos from your trip for extra personalization to send your friends and family.

          • Honeymoon Fund Fees: Hitchd does a one time fee and has service plans ranging from $119 to $199 based on your wedding size, but you can try it for free before making a final decision. Credit cards have a processing fee of 2.9% plus $0.30 and 1.5% for international cards charged by Stripe that can be paid by the couple or gift giver.
          • What Couples Love: Couples love the variety of payment methods offered. Specifically, couples liked how the site supported international cards, which is ideal for people hosting a wedding with guests from around the world.

          5. Honeyfund

            Despite its name, Honeyfund can be used for any type of cash gift. So, while you can dedicate some of your wish list to your honeymoon, you can also create a house fund wedding registry, a place for people to donate to charity and more. On your personal page you can include a long list of trips and activities or just one donation box for guests to contribute to. Alternatively, you can register for zero-fee gift cards to nearly 200 dining, shopping and travel brands. Once you've built your unique honeymoon registry fund, share it with guests on social media or your wedding website.

            • Honeymoon Fund Fees: Honeyfund has no set-up charges, doesn't charge guests fees and allows "fee-free redemption" for couples who want to put the money into and take the money out of their PayPal or Venmo accounts (this can later be deposited into your bank account).
            • What Couples Love: Just about every couple said the lack of any fees for themselves and their guests was the reason why Honeyfund was the top honeymoon registry for them.

            6. Honeymoon Wishes

              Honeymoon Wishes is a great travel wedding registry for the adventurous couple. Thanks to the brand's exclusive partnerships with cruise lines and hotels, you can save for a variety of trips like Botswana, Fiji and beyond—seriously, they have more than 850 destinations to explore in over 70 countries. They also offer live customer service (which is perfect for guests who aren't computer savvy) and cutting-edge security. For couples looking for a premium ​​wedding registry for their honeymoon, Honeymoon Wishes fits the bill.

              • Honeymoon Fund Fees: Honeymoon Wishes is free to create, but comes with a service and handling fee depending on the fund request method: 3.5% for a direct funds transfer and 7% for a check. There's also an industry-standard 2.5% credit card processing fee for guests.
              • What Couples Love: Couples and guests can't stop raving about the customer service specialists available through Honeymoon Wishes. Not only can you email them about any questions or concerns, you can also give them a call and talk to a live agent.

              7. Blueprint

                If you're looking for a one-stop shop for your wedding's online presence, Blueprint could be a good option for you. Their platform offers wedding website and registry building, and you can add traditional gift and cash fund options, including honeymoon experiences.
