Forget about fine china or a sterling-silver ice bucket. When bride Jess and groom Nate thought about what they'd ask for on a wedding registry, nothing came to mind. As in, they wanted nothing. "Don't get me wrong," wrote Jess on their shared site, Round the World Couple. "I would have loved to run through a big department store with that tagger gun beeping all the things that looked good." But the two were in the process of selling, donating, or giving away all their stuff to embark on a yearlong—as you may have guessed—'round the world adventure, so registering for new sheets and hand towels didn't quite fit with that vision. So instead they set up a Honeyfund registry, and asked their guests to gift them experiences that they could enjoy throughout the year. Some options from their registry: Spanish lessons a trek in Macchu Pichu a sunrise hike in Darjeeling, India a train journey across southern Africa When it comes down to it, of course, they were basically registering for cash: If grandma spent $200 to buy them dinner somewhere exotic, they wouldn't get a restaurant credit, they'd get money in their Honeyfund account, and it would be![]()
