My husband and I had lived together for years before getting married, so taking the traditional route and registering for sheets, towels and dishes was not a good option for us. On top of that, we both have family abroad and many of them were not able to joins us on our wedding day but they still wanted to be a part of it, even if it was just by sending a gift. So when I saw the Deposit a Gift logo I was intrigued by it and looked more into it. I was aprehansive at first, but the FAQ section was very clear about everything and anything that came to mind. I cannot say enough how happy I am to have discover it. We had no issues with people making transactions with their international credit cards. We were notified everytime we received a gift. And when I had a concern about something and wrote an email to DAG, I was pleasantly surprised to received a call back in a matter of minutes. I definetly would use them again for another event and will recommend to anybody who is a little shy about asking for money instead of gifts.

Deposit a Gift is a great idea! I used the site to raise money for a charity bike ride I did with my kids, ages 10 and 4. The site was intuitive, easy to use, and a convenient one-stop-shop to send people interested in our ride. We set up our donation page so that people could help us buy equipment for the ride or just make a donation to our charity. Deposit a Gift even published an article about our plans to help spread the word. How cool is that?! I will definitely use the site again for our next family fund raiser.

Our honeymoon, thanks to Deposit a Gift, was a dream come true! We really wanted to live it up for our honeymoon since we had never taken a luxurious vacation together. We figured a honeymoon was the only time we could justify going all out. We dreamed big and picked a package to Bora Bora complete with the overwater bungalow suite. Registering on DAG was super easy and fun and Dana was always available and on top of it if we had any questions. Many of our friends wanted to get us an experience we'd remember instead of a pan or dish, so they started contributing to our honeymoon registry. Our family and friends knew how excited we were about the trip and how much we love to travel, so they wanted to help make it happen. In the end, we were able to relax on the beach and enjoy every moment, without worrying about the cost. That was the greatest gift we could have asked for! I tell every bride and groom I know to create a personal registry and dream big. We got all of the kitchen and home goodies too, but this gift was our favorite (shhh!).
