Pleasant Holidays Features Starwood Hawaii Hotels & Resorts on New Honeymoon Registry
Honolulu, HI (PRWeb) February 14, 2007 -- Pleasant Holidays, in a joint venture with Starwood Hawaii Hotels & Resorts, announces the launching of an online honeymoon gift registry service powered by TheBigDay.com where Starwood Hawaii is the featured supplier. Wedding couples choosing Starwood Hawaii properties for their honeymoon will be provided with a "registry wizard" that will allow them to create a honeymoon registry where the items on the gift registry are the activities and experiences the couple will enjoy while on their honeymoon at the Starwood property where they will be staying. Wedding guests then have the opportunity to purchase a honeymoon experience as a wedding gift that the lucky couple will remember forever. Couples are notified of gifts bought from their registry by email and (optionally) also via text messages sent to their cell phones.
Couples can either book their travel online, or take advantage of travel consultation provided by Pleasant Holiday's Hawaii travel experts.
Couples pay no fees to signup for the Starwood Hawaii honeymoon registry service, which includes a free wedding webpage, free wedding webpage announcement cards, and a free email account for organizing their wedding-related correspondence. Couples who book their honeymoon to a Starwood Hawaii property through Pleasant Holidays receive a discount on the services fees normally charged on the honeymoon gifts bought from their registries. Usually, a 9% service charge is deducted from the registry gifts purchased, but couples who book at least $2000 have their service charge reduced to 3.5%, and couples who book $3500 or more pay no service fee at all. "In fact, most of our customers get their honeymoon registry for free," says Michael Cottam, president of TheBigDay.com, "and as our customers receive an average of about $2000 in gifts from their honeymoon registry, they're able to make their dream honeymoon a reality."
"We're excited about this new opportunity to augment our methods for targeting the very competitive Hawaii honeymoon market segment," says Michael Troy, Starwood's Area Director of Sales and Marketing for Hawaii and French Polynesia. "And the lead management and reporting tools provided by TheBigDay.com allow us to closely monitor the performance of the cobranded honeymoon registry program in terms of new customers and additional sales."

Blackpool is a medium-sized seaside resort in north-western England with miles of deep sandy beaches.
