I think it’s pretty common with younger people. My mom always balked at honeymoon funds so I didn’t put one on our registry at first, but my friends asked for it because it makes it easier for them to gift money. Honestly, I think it’s a good idea. It’s more secure than leaving cash or check in a card in a box at your venue, and it makes things more convenient for your guests.
That’s exactly where I am. I’m thinking I will put a honeymoon fund up the week before wedding but not until then.
I didn’t do a cash fund through my registry bc my mom felt very strongly against it. I got all gifts for my shower, but everyone gave cash/checks for my actual wedding gifts. Didn’t seem to be a problem for anyone.

I would do a cash registry. As a guest, I like RSVPing and sending the gift (whether it be cash or off of the registry) at the same time, so I don’t have to think about it again. I put a honeymoon fund and a house projects fund on mine since we just bought a house.
If you want to personalize it more, you can put specific aspects of the honeymoon like excursions that people can sponsor. We might put certain house projects on ours that people can contribute to.
We’re 3 months out and relatives who are not able to attend sent us money for our honeymoon fund 😊
Our whole registry was a honeymoon fund. I'd say around 40-50% of folks still just gave cards and cash/cheques.
