Brandon: June 2008 Archives

I came across this article today in the travel section of the New York Times that discusses how the green honeymoon is becoming a consumer driven market. We hope our new partnership with Native Energy Travel Offsets is just one way our Members consider reducing the emissions from their honeymoon travel.  If you are interested in sustainable travel, check out Elevate Destinations - they are a boutique travel agency focused in this area.

American Public Media's Marketplace (on National Public Radio) recently reported on how high end retailers are battling lifestyle wedding registries.  Only five years ago, the registry marketplace only had a half dozen brick and mortar retailers.  Thing have certainly changed since then! 

Wedding registries are becoming one other way for couples to express who they are and their lifestyle.  Traveler's Joy believes a honeymoon registry speaks a millions words about how a couple is looking forward to exploring new places and experiences together.

This morning I came across the article below on how the modern wedding couple continues to change demographically and how that has affected registry choices.  We could not agree more here at Traveler's Joy (and are happy because of it!) as our Members continue to honeymoon in exotic locations and for longer time periods with the help of their honeymoon registry.  It makes us so happy to hear about the amazing places we help our couples travel to and celebrate their first few weeks of marriage together!
