Wedding registry descriptions and ideas on how to write the awkward cash gift requests
Memento is mobile cash app that can be added to any existing wedding website, such as The Knot, Wedding Wire, Zola, Minted and more. Below are sample registry descriptions to get you started. It takes less than 5-minutes to set up and on the big day you will receive thoughtful video messages from friends and family, oh, and some extra cash.
The fortunate.
Gifts are welcome but after [x] years of being together, we are fortunate enough to already have all the physical items we need for our home. Instead, please consider contributing to our Memento fund - a personal message and cash gifts for us to invest in [an epic honeymoon adventure, a new home, our student loans, the wedding of our dreams]. We really appreciate your generosity!
The realistic.
As much as we’d appreciate a nice fondue set, what we really want is a personal message from you and some extra cash for us to invest in our future. Thank you for your thoughtfulness.
The classic.
An easy way to send us wedding funds for our big day! We can invest in what we need and save the messages for a lifetime.
The apartment.
While we greatly appreciate your thoughtfulness, at this time we have all the things we could possibly need, and realistically fit in our apartment. What we’d really like is a Memento - a thoughtful video message and some additional cash funds for us to use toward [an epic honeymoon, our dream wedding, a new home etc.]. Plus, we can store all of the memories!
The thoughtful.
If you would like to send us a wedding gift, we’d really appreciate a Memento. A fun video or thoughtful text message with some extra funds to support our future. We’ve got big plans!
The punny.
Ready for a good time? So are we! If you feel like getting us a gift, we’d love for you to support to our wedding FUN-d.
The generation.
Memento is a new mobile app that personalizes digital cash gifts for special events - like our wedding day! While we know apps like Venmo and Zelle aren’t for everyone, it’s an easy way for some of our guests to send us a thoughtful and meaningful video message with the convenience of an app. You can even send us a gift straight from the dance floor!
The destination.
Near or far, we’d love to hear from you on our wedding day. Please send us a Memento video message or note with your advice or well-wishes. Every gift helps and every memory will be cherished.
The simple.
A new way to send a personal video message or write a thoughtful note to us on our big day. Plus a few extra funds.
