The Turquoise Gift List
The world is changing. Not only are more and more exotic and far flung destinations becoming reachable and affordable, but the way in which we choose to pay for our dream holiday has changed.
Trends also show that many of us are getting married later in life - at a time when, generally speaking, we already possess many of the useful mundane household items such as towels, corkscrews, chopping boards and glasses which tend to be at the top of most wedding lists.
To try and address this issue, The Turquoise Holiday Company has come up with a novel and intriguing solution and to date, we have had an excellent response, both from the lucky recipients and the friends and relatives who are buying the gift (after all - who enjoys buying a frying pan as a present?).
The idea is simplicity itself:
1. |
As the lucky couple, you book your honeymoon with The Turquoise Holiday Company and pay the appropriate deposit in line with our booking conditions.
|
2. |
The Turquoise Holiday Company then sends you a supply of cards stating that the wedding list will be held at The Turquoise Holiday Company (you then simply insert your booking number on to the cards). You can dispatch these cards to as many or as few of your friends and family as you feel appropriate. |
3. |
Let us know whether or not you would like all or only part of your honeymoon to be available on your wedding list. For example, you may prefer for only your flights to be on the list (flying Business or First Class may be a priority for you) or alternatively, select a range of other products and services for your friends and family to purchase eg. room upgrades, seaplane fights, sailing trips or even special romantic dining experiences - just let us know what is important to you and we can then highlight these to your friends and family when they call or write to us for wedding gift ideas. |
4. |
Your guests, family and friends can then, by quoting your booking number, either pay contributions of any denomination into your booking, or choose any of the selected products chosen by the couple . Your honeymoon can also be accessed on-line and payments made in this manner as well. |
5. |
The balance of your honeymoon, less your deposit and the wedding list payments, must be received eight weeks prior to departure. Should it be the case that we are still receiving wedding list calls from your friends and family about contributions to your honeymoon after this final payment date, then we will arrange to refund you the difference. |
6. |
You can access your honeymoon on a secure website to see what amounts have been paid on to your booking and by whom. Turquoise will send you a full list of names and amounts when the balance is due (eight weeks before departure) and then a final list with your tickets. |
