As a couple who were already living together prior to the wedding, I was thrilled when my bestie told me about Traveler’s Joy as a way to fund our honeymoon instead of a typical registry! Our friends and family loved this idea as well! It was so easy to use and I’ve been recommending it to my newly engaged friends since!

Traveler's Joy
Very easy to use and customize! They have some pre-set trips that we didn't end up using, but it was nice to have them as a template to create our own. They sent email notifications every time a gift was received so it was easy to track. It was also quick to get the money deposited, although I will caution against using the PayPal option as the site thought it was income.
Traveler's joy was so easy to set up and use! So simple for us to put together and for our guests to use. 10/10 recommend. It was also so easy to to cash everything out! Gave us an excuse to finally get that joint bank account set up 😅
Any questions?
Traveler's joy was easy, secure and helpful once we selected our honeymoon spot Traveler helped with tours and places to visit the costs broken down so that my guest can gift item and not break their budget. It was awesome
My sister recommended this and it was wonderful. We were able to find great things to do on our honeymoon and our friends and family got to help decide what to do. Just be sure to read all the information on the fees associated for using their website but it was great because we knew it wouldn't be done for free. It was really easy to use and set up and redeem our gifts as well.
excellent a fun way to set up a honeymoon fund! Our guests loved choosing from our different excursions for our honeymoon and it was so simple to use!
Loved Traveler’s Joy! So easy to use!
Loved using Traveler's Joys on our registry. It was simple for the guests to purchase gifts.
What a cool way to include a cash fund but more personal on our wedding registry! Our guests loved this option because they got to “pay for an experience”, and it was cool to see what people chose!
Easy to use for us and our guests, fun to add details and make our own and easy to withdraw funds. Definitely recommend!
We loved travelers joy! It was easy to create a page and navigate. Our guests had many compliments and thought it was really cool too.
My one critique is on the "travel tickets" that we received in the mail from every person who gave to our honeymoon fund. I was a little sad to see that the contributors message wasn't included on the ticket, I think it would make it a little more of a meaningful keepsake. Some people, like grandparents and aunts and uncles sent money and wrote sentimental messages. But on the ticket it only says the amount of money they sent. Also it seemed like some of the tickets may have gotten lost in the mail because we did not get them for every person who sent something

Hi Bacardi,
Thank you for your review. We really appreciate it!
Just a note that I've shared your comment with our Gift Card Team to determine if they have the space on the card to include the gift message that is sent to your email and you...
r Traveler's Joy account.
Also, each gift giver is given the choice if they want to send a physical card so not everyone chooses to send one.
Thanks again for your review and sharing your Traveler's Joy experience.
Congratulations on your marriage!
Best Regards,

Truly THE BEST!!!
Such a great registry option for couples who prioritize experiences! Highly recommend this to my friends, too.
Travelers Joy was so easy to use! Both for my husband and I as well as our guests. Highly recommend this vendor!!!
The process was pretty simple and our guests seemed to have an easy time getting on the site and donating to our honeymoon. There is a waiting period for withdrawing funds from the site after the wedding in order to receive the whole amount. So I waited the 7 days or so, so we were able to take out the whole amount.

Hi Karrin, Thank you so much for your review! We are so happy you had an excellent experience with Traveler's Joy. Just a note that there is no wait time to redeem your gifts based on the wedding date. We do have a 3 day hold on gifts to allow ...
the funds to move from the credit card company to your registry account and to give our team time to review (if necessary) the gift.
Thanks again and hope you had an amazing honeymoon!
Best Regards,

Great website, easy to use, pretty quick to cash out gifts (3 days holding time), and we could use the cash for anything we wanted as our plans changed from the original items we listed on the registry. Our guests were able to use it easily and choose to give a gift directly through the registry or separately by cash or check to us directly. We didn't want a bunch of stuff, but we wanted to take an epic honeymoon and this registry helped us do that! We also liked supporting a vendor local to us (Durham, NC) and that supports LGBTQ+ couples for our registry.
Such an easy website to set up our honeymoon fund. It was very easy for our guests to navigate. They're suggestions for activities based on where you want to go helped to plan more adventures for our trip.
Easy to use service that helped us seamlessly add experiences and keep track of gifts for our Italian honeymoon. Loved being able to link it to our website on The Knot.
Our registry on Traveler's Joy was fun and easy to set-up. We received a lot of compliments from family and friends who have used it. Redeeming gifts has also been a hassle-free process so far.
Traveler Joy made it so easy for our guests to contribute to our honeymoon fund! We got postcards in the mail once money was donated which made the experience so fun!
Our guests loved being able to give us specific honeymoon experiences, and we loved the simplicity of the platform. Definitely recommend!
Traveler's Joy was a great addition to our registry! People loved being able to buy us something specific for our honeymoon instead of just giving us money for our general honeymoon fund. It was nice to be able to break up big purchases into smaller price points!
This site was easy to use and convenient. I loved it, used it instead of a regular gift registry. The only thing was you can't use the money right away. Takes time for the money to hit accounts
Traveler's Joy was so easy to use, set up, and transfer our funds out of. I would highly recommend using this as a part of your wedding website and registry!
This is a great site if you are looking to cover travel expenses. It's so easy to set up your registry, your guests feel like they are really a part of your travels and it's so easy to redeem your gifts. We definitely recommend this site!
So easy to use and made our honeymoon that much more enjoyable!
This was very easy for our guests to use! It was also very customizable, which we appreciated.
I used Traveler's Joy for my wedding in May 2023, as a "general honeymoon fund" and "future date nights fund". My guests loved being able to donate to our future as we started our lives together, and the site is very easy to use!
Easy to use way to help fund your honeymoon.
Traveler's Joy was so easy to use and allowed our guests to purchase honeymoon activities for us instead of buying us household goods (which we didn't need, because we've been living in our own house together for many years now). You can choose the activities and how much each one costs and then you cash out (they take a small fee) and can spend the money however you please! There are lots of examples to help you get started. We loved Traveler's Joy!
Very easy service to use. Was able to seamlessly integrate into The Knot website platform and cash out funds to be used.
Fees seemed a little high relative to service provided which is why I gave 4 stars instead of 5.
Made asking for money easy and fun! We had a blast in Spain!
It was so easy to set up a travel experience registry with Traveler's Joy. We were able to customize our story and make our registry feel authentically us. People really liked the concept too and loved gifting experiences for our honeymoon!
Our guests loved this as much as we did! Great experience!
Very easy to use and easy for guests to help contribute!
The guest at our wedding loved this idea! They were so excited to give us something that would help create a memory rather than buying another household gift. Traveler's Joy even has registries already made for multiple destinations that you can edit and add to. It was super easy to navigate and gave us the freedom on what we used the money for since you can direct deposit the money into your bank account. Would highly recommend for all couple, especially older couples who already have kitchen things from living on your own for a few years.
Traveler's Joy was a great choice for our 'honey-fund.' With plenty of templates to choose from, you can make your travel fund quickly, though they do let you DIY and customize the page as much as you'd like.
We found Traveler's Joy by accident, but what a lovely thing to stumble upon! It was so nice to be able to plan out our honeymoon in a way that guests felt that they were meaningfully contributing to our experiences (as opposed to just putting money in a card). We received tons of comments from people on how "cool" an idea it was to do our registry this way. We've already recommended it to a number of people we know who are planning weddings. It worked fabulously for us!
Absolutely loved Traveler's Joy. It was easy for our wedding guests and for us to transfer to our bank account. Honeymoon fully paid for!
We used travels joy to control and organize our honeymoon fund and it made it so much easier! Definitely recommend to any couples that need a helping hand but don’t want to stress about the little things for money organization.
Made it super easy to receive and redeem honeymoon gifts. I loved that you could pick specific things for people to contribute towards like drinks, excursions, flights, etc.
Traveler’s Joy was the absolute best website for our honeymoon registry! They provide easy to select destinations and suggested activities. Our guests found it easy to use and loved that the gift was automatically delivered!
We've already lived together for about 4 years, so instead of a registry we used a honeymoon fund. I loved that you were able to list out all the activities on the honeymoon and have people contribute to specific activities or portions of it. It makes the giftgiver feel like the present is a little more customized than straight cash. Transferring the cash back was easy, and you aren't beholden to use it for the specified activity if your plans change. There's a fee, but you can choose to pay it all yourself, have your guests pay, or split with the guests. All in all, the interface was super clean and simple and made for a really great way for family to gift. Would definitely recommend!
Traveler’s Joy was absolutely perfect for our needs. Super simple to set up, easy to customize, no fees on our end and everyone who used it said it was easy and convenient. Would 100% use this again — and I kind of want to continue using it for birthday and Christmas haha
Traveler's Joy made making our Honeymoon Registry so easy! Not only easy for us, but easy for our friends and family to use. Because we've been together for almost 5 years before getting married, we didn't need a toaster, sheets, towels, or a toaster, we have all of that. Traveler's Joy provided a way for our family and friends to gift us experiences! When we made the registry, it asked where we were honeymooning and gave us the option of picking out what we wanted on the registry or using their instant registry. Easy peasy!! Traveler's Joy was recommended to me by a friend and I will be recommended it to any of my friends getting married too!
We LOVED our experience with Travelers Joy honeymoon registry. We used this registry during summer 2022. The user interface was intuitive for us to set up the registry and easy for guests. We liked how we could set up custom gift experiences for our trip or use some of their pre-determined items. The best part was that all the “gifts” were transferred to us as cash contributions that we could put towards anything on our trip. It gave the guests the joy of selecting a gift experience from the registry while giving the bride and groom flexibility. The system also keeps track of who purchased what, and the money was easy to redeem directly to our bank account. We would highly recommend using Traveler’s Joy if you already have a lot of houseware items and would rather have money towards experiences. Side bonus note —The honeymoon registry also made writing thank you notes much easier as we were then able to write about how much we enjoyed experience “XYZ”!
Our honeymoon was completely paid for by our kind-hearted wedding guests and the capabilities provided by Traveler's Joy customizable website. Traveler's Joy allows you to customize your own wedding website and design your own honeymoon trip. From this webpage, your guests can choose which honeymoon activities they want to contribute to. My other favorite feature was the ability to print out a excel file of all the guests who contributed which streamlined the thank you card process after the wedding. Traveler's Joy also offered the ability to buy pre-printed thank you cards which were shipped to us in less than three-weeks. I would 100% recommend this website to any couple who already has household good items and would rather crate memories traveling with their significant other.
Super easy and convenient. Gave us everything we wanted!
HIGHLY recommend Traveler's Joy. We started planning our 2020 wedding in 2018 and had to postpone the wedding and honeymoon 4x. Throughout it all, we knew Traveler's Joy was there and we could easily adjust our plans and redeem our gifts as they came in for whenever our honeymoon ended up happening. Our guests have loved the personalization of the gift giving and our specific thank yous we then sent them based on TJ's tracking of said gifts.
Absolutely loved this! The registry made it so easy and fun for our guests to be able to give us a gift that would go towards our honeymoon. Being able to pick items that our guests could buy made it a really neat way to get money for our honeymoon.
So glad we chose to use Traveler’s Joy for our honeymoon registry! Worked great and we received our gift money quickly! Thanks!
Traveler's Joy was super easy to use for our registry and also super quick in receiving our funds. I highly recommend using this service for your gift registry if you want a 'no hassle' online portal that your guests can easily access and find you the perfect gift - thank you!!
Highly recommend using Traveler's Joy Honeymoon Registry! We are sooo glad that we found their website. You can tailor your registry to any destination in the world. It's super easy to set up and our guests absolutely loved the idea! It was a big hit and a huge success! Hawaii here we come!!!
This site is super user friendly! My favorite part was how it synced so well with my wedding website registry through The Knot. It was simple to add gifts to our Traveler’s Joy registry and select the quantity/amount per gift. There’s even the option to add the service charge to the person sending you a gift, to take it from your gift amount, or split down the middle. We decided to charge the service fee to the person gifting which didn’t seem to stop them from purchasing considering all of our gifts were taken by the time of the wedding! Many people purchased our gifts on Traveler’s Joy first over typical household items because they felt they were contributing to specific honeymoon experiences, meanwhile it’s all just cash going into your account. They can even submit it anonymously (my aunt did that and then surprised me at the bridal shower), or choose to add on a physical card that looks like a ticket which is mailed to you. We had no issue with the 72-hour hold for each gift before it’s officially in your account balance, and then you manually transfer it to your bank. The total time does take about a week to get the money in your account but it’s fine to be patient. I highly recommend using this for your registry because let’s be honest, money is tight for all of us right now and who doesn’t want gift $$$ in their accounts?!
Super useful and easy to use for guests!
Traveler’s Joy was awesome to work with for our honeymoon registry! We used The Knot to sync a traditional registry (i.e. Crate & Barrel) with our honeymoon registry through Traveler’s Joy. Our guests loved gifting us specific experiences for our trip.
Traveler’s Joy is awesome! It was so fun to pick out activities for our honeymoon, and then our guests could easily gift them to us!! Knowing that we have snorkeling, kayaking, private dinners, and a private cabana rental gives us so much more to look forward to! We love that our family was able to help make our honeymoon even more special and memorable.
loved using this site to get funds for our honeymoon. easy to use and easy to get the funds out at any time.
I liked Traveler's Joy because it gave you the option to "charge" the couple or the person gifting the fee, not require it be the couple.
They do have a 3-day holding period for the payment to clear before it gets released.. which wasn't a huge deal just something to note in case it is to you.
We actually had a number of guests use this to send gift money so I would definitely recommend :)
This was so convenient for us and our guests. Highly recommend
Our guests loved using our honeymoon registry to gift us money with a bit more personalization. Travelers Joy was easy to use for our guests and for us to receive our money.
Great website for receiving gifts that is very low hassle!
Traveler's Joy was so great to use! For my husband and I, we were already living in a house together for 2 years and meant so much to us that we could make a honeymoon fund, specifically through Traveler's Joy. It was so easy to use and loved that you could personalize it as much as you want. Customer service was very responsive and easy to work with as well when I needed to contact them once. It was also really nice having the ability to sync Traveler's Joy my TheKnot wedding page. One of my favorite things about this honeymoon fund was that you had the ability to let guests choose to pay by cash (promised gift) or by credit card directly. I know having fees for your guests or self to pay for a fund like this with a card is not ideal but by having the ability to choose a promised gift made it so nice! Occasionally the site would get buggy but overall highly recommend using Traveler's Joy :)
We had most of the things we need and loved being able to create a Honeymoon registry! Loved that there were samples so we could figure out what to write since my first draft was super awkward. Happy that I could upload my own photos and really tailor the registry to be specific to our honeymoon. We got great responses and our guests loved seeing our honeymoon plans!
Traveler's Joy was so easy to use! So many of our guests complimented us on the honeymoon registry and we were able to go on the trip of a lifetime because of it!
Absolutely loved Traveler's Joy. Our guests had no problem with the website and getting our money was very easy. The website was easy to navigate, add items, etc. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking to do a honeymoon registry instead of a "traditional" registry
Amazing Honeymoon registry website!! Very easy and fun for us to create the website. Our guest found the website easy to use and enjoyed giving us gift to enjoy on our Honeymoon.
Travelers Joy worked well for our honeymoon registry. It connected to our wedding website on The Knot and people seemed to have no problem contributing. Only complaint is that transfers to our bank account were a little slow.
Travelers joy made it so easy for our guests ti contribute ti our honeymoon fund! We lived the idea so much and didn’t need any home items so this was perfect. After the wedding it was so easy to add the money to our bank account which I was worried about at first. But it was smooth and only took like 1-2 days to go into our account. We CANT WAIT for our honey moon this November!
I used this about 13 years ago for my first wedding and again 5/29/22. It remains easy to use, set up, and cash out. I would recommend it to anyone.
This was so convenient for us. We're both established so we didn't need a wedding registry with a bunch of stuff for our house. Instead, we were able to use the money we collected for our awesome honeymoon in Mexico.
A Great way to have a moneyfund while allowing your guests to help pay for specific items rather than just giving cash. It was pretty easy to set up, and easy to understand. I gave 4 stars as I feel the interface could still use a little adjustment to make it a bit more clear for both us and our guests to understand how much is being asked for.
This service was fantastic! Super easy to set up and for our friends and family to utilize - highly recommend!
Utilized Traveler's Joy as a part of our registry for our Honeymoon to Hawaii. I can't recommend the service enough. It was easy to use and the platform helped guide us to the different activities that we were planning.
Traveler's Joy is really easy to use! It met the needs of our honeymoon fund perfectly. They do charge fees of about 3% in addition to the credit card fees. But they give you options on whether to have your guests pay them, you pay them, or split the 2 fees.
We loved the option for travel joy! We don’t really need “stuff” and didn’t want to ask for money so this was a great alternative and our guest felt they more included by picking things to contribute towards! Love it
Traveler's Joy is a great tool for planning your honeymoon! We had no trouble getting our money after the wedding and it was deposited into my bank account in a timely manner. Definite recommend.
Traveler's Joy made it very easy for our friends and family to gift us excursions for our honeymoon. The website template was very user friendly and our guests were able to navigate the site with ease. We loved that we could link it to our existing Knot website too. We loved using this site to help fun our perfect honeymoon!
We were really pleased with this option for our registry. We had several guests who took interest to help cover costs for our amazing honeymoon. After a person gifted us, we received a cute keepsake with their name to save for a scrapbook. Transferring the money when it was time to use it was simple. I’d highly recommend Traveler’s Joy again and again.
A friend of mine utilize this website and spoke on how easy and convenient it was. The website made it easy for us to set up and research our honeymoon. Our family was able to pay for a specific item in our trip or just send money for us to use as we saw fit. The cash withdrawal was easy and fast. Guest We’re also able to add Notes to their gift to us. And they also mailed out a little card telling you that they had sent a gift on the website and an email. And also made sending thank you notes really easy.
Loved having this on our registry! So many people loved the idea of gifting us an experience. Highly recommend
Traveler's Joy honestly saved our honeymoon. We were planning on going to Tahiti for months, when one month before we were supposed to leave, the country largely shut down due to covid. We had already received many gifts for our honeymoon at that point and were worried about being able to honor them in a new location. We switched our destination to St. Lucia and were able to apply our gifts there instead, with zero fuss! It made the enormous task of rebooking a honeymoon with 30 days of runway (and the small detail of having our own wedding along the way) VERY manageable. A perfectly flexible registry for inflexible times!
Customizing our registry was easy and fun, and we loved getting our little "travel passports" in the mail. We had complete confidence and security in how our gifts were being handled and how the money was transferred to us.
Loved this idea and we got plenty of complements on it! They have creative ideas for different destinations.
This is a fantastic, easy-to-use site for your honeymoon registry! Set up was easy and fast!
Travelers joy made the registry side of wedding planning super easy. Recommend if you want to get money more than objects. People can "pay" for an excursion on your honeymoon, but really it's a big funnel and you get a payout at the end. Easy to use.
Traveler's Joy helped us make our honeymoon dreams come true! It was easy to set up our registry page and connect it to our wedding website. We could choose from one of their pre-created registries, based on location, to help us create the registry. Our guests raved at how easy it was to purchase the honeymoon experiences and loved that they could be apart of our trip. I would recommend Traveler's Joy to everyone looking for a honeymoon registry.
Our family and friends were happy to support us in our travel experiences! Very user friendly website. 10/10. Very happy someone recommended this site to us.
We loved using Travelers joy because it allowed us to breakdown specific activities we wanted to do on our honeymoon. Family/friends could contribute as much as they wanted and they seemed to feel better knowing they were contributing to activities we were actually planning to do (rather than a large honeymoon fund). Highly recommend this if you don’t need a lot of traditional/household registry items! We’re barely have room in our house as it is, so it was nice having this as an alternative:)
We loved how easy it was to register and make our page for a honeymoon fund. Our guests said it was easy to use too
Absolutely perfect for my guests. We are vacationing to New Zealand.
Many people were so excited to pick something “kayaking with seals” or “dinner at hobbiton”. I worked with a travel agency based in New Zealand called First Light Travel. They gave me a quote that showed all the places and experiences we would do each day. They also had explained what each thing was. I had already had ideas and they worked with me personally on setting it up and getting it to work for him and I and our budget!
From there I took the images, explanations of the experience and plopped it into the Travelers Joy Registry. People loved it!
Each time someone purchased something we would get at “boarding pass” sent in the mail or even a really beautiful card. They even offered Thank you cards after with the addresses already written on it and you can even add a message.
I do wish the splitting of the costs was a bit easier or not quite so confusing. I would constantly mix it up and then have to find the cost online again. I also wish it would convert the currency.
This is a great way to involve your guests in a honeymoon without having them having to stress out about what gifts to buy you. We really enjoyed using the service and so did our guests.
We loved using this website for our honeymoon travel fund/registry! Very user friendly and fun to set up.
We decided on Traveler’s Joy for our wedding registry since we already have an established household. The site was so incredibly easy to use, multiple options for fee payment, no issues transferring money into assigned accounts. Would very highly recommend this as a registry!
Travelers Joy was a great way for our honeymoon to become a reality. Couples who live together before marriage typically have house appliances and other typical wedding gifts. This website helped guests see what was important to us rather than getting a new toaster.
This worked great for giving guests an easy and classy way to help fund our honeymoon! The price they charged was extremely reasonable for the service they provided.
Traveler’s Joy was easy and fun to use, and I had plenty of wedding guests tell me how cool it was that they could gift us personal experiences rather than just cash to a single “honeymoon fund”!
Traveler's Joy was an awesome addition to our wedding registry. The ability to "gift" experiences was incredible and our guests loved it. Very easy to use.
Great registry system but fees are quite high actually- you can choose who takes on the fees (gifter, receiver, split between both) but whichever you choose, they're still fairly hefty. Customer service itself is good, website easy to maneuver and once you cash in the check, it does arrive in a timely manner.
Such a fun way for guest to give to specific aspects of the honeymoon. They felt like they were really giving a gift of experience rather than cash.
