Making the site faster

Adam very kindly agreed, so here’s the […]

Here at Buy Our Honeymoon, we’re constantly making small adjustments and improvements to our service, to try to provide the best wedding list service we possibly can. Some of these — such as our recent multilingual registry feature — deserve a full blog post all of their own. Others are smaller, incremental improvements and changes, […]
Multilingual wedding lists in Italian and German
At the end of September, we launched a new feature to our wedding list service where you can provide your honeymoon registry in more than one language. This is great for couples with international families: not only can you list gifts in multiple currencies, you can also have your registry appear in English and up […]
