A great website, easy to use!
My husband and I loved the ease of using Travelers Joy. Our guests were so impressed with the process and loved that they could give toward our honeymoon!
We had already been living together for a few years when we got married so there were a lot of typical registry items that we just didn't need. Traveler's Joy was a great way to request monetary gifts, and our friends and family LOVED knowing what their gift would be helping us pay for on the honeymoon! We had no problems from the time we set it up, to when we requested and received the money. I would definitely recommend Traveler's Joy to my friends and family!
Very helpful
Excellent resource to use for all engaged couples!
I was unsure of using an online service to collect gifts for my destination wedding, but Traveler's Joy made the process simple and transparent. I received exactly what I wanted through them! Very grateful for Traveler's Joy!
Excellent! I would definitely recommend this site for a wedding registry.
We enjoyed using Traveler's Joy! Raised enough for our honeymoon to do tons of extra activities!
Traveler’s Joy was exactly what my husband and I were looking for in a registry. We could have not been happier. So easy to use! Our family and friends loved it, as well!
Only complaint is the time it takes to receive your money people have left for you. If you went on your honeymoon right after your wedding you wouldn’t be able to use the gifts until a few days into your vacation. It makes it almost nonfunctional.
No problems with Traveler's Joy. Easy for our guests to use and no one had any problems. It was easy to get our direct deposit at the end. Synced well with our knot website.
It was a neat thing to do for our wedding/honeymoon and gave our guests something else to show their love for us. But we didn't really do any of the specific things.
Our experience with Travelor's Joy was excellent! The suggestions they had for adventures were well thought out and easy to use. Our wedding guests enjoyed the option to provide us with experiences rather than material goods. This is an excellent option for a registry!
While it was a great platform - the UX was fantastic, and we were able to do everything we needed with ease - we had one particularly big issue with our experience on Traveler's Joy. We are in Canada and we as well as many of our donators didn't think to check what currency the gifts would be in. So it was a big surprise when the day before the wedding, my father notified me that all of our guests were being charged 30% more than they thought they were. We had to go through each donation and send personal e-transfers for the difference along with an apology! When you're super busy prepping for a wedding, these things can get overlooked. I think it needed to be much clearer to us and our guests that the currency was in USD.
Travelers joy made our registry experience so easy! Our guests had such a simple time purchasing gifts and so many people complimented us on the uniqueness of the registry!
Traveler's Joy made it easy for us to select activities to add to our honeymoon list. Most of our family and friends were able to access and contribute with ease. The only downside is that money is taken away from the couple for taxes. This is all explained upfront though. We have no complaints about the site.
Convenient for people not coming to the wedding to share gifts
Great way to receive funds for honeymoon instead of physical gifts!
The service ended up being confusing for our guests. Only a single person used it. Since it serves as a "middle man' without providing any real benefit other than a wedding website, most people ignored it entirely. Nothing negative transpired, and we received funds for the one guest who used it (minus the fees we both paid to Traveler's Joy) quickly. No complaints, but nothing I could recommend, either.

Nov 19,2018It was great but sadly no one trusted the site I'm not sure how to improve upon that because to me the site was straightforward.
