We had a brilliant wedding day at Rudding Park Hotel back in April this year and used 1bigpresent.com instead of asking for gifts which we really did not need! We have lived together for a while now in our own flat and we have all the traditional household type wedding presents people tend to buy, so we wanted something to avoid the prospect of receiving 12 toasters, 5 kettles etc etc. We came across 1bigpresent.com and it was perfect for us! It took away the "cheeky" feeling of asking for cash or cheques but let us explain through our own personal profile that we wished to use the money for an extra special honeymoon. Our guests fully embraced the website and found the unique code system a dream to use and everyone who contributed left a little message which was nice for us. We closed our account after the wedding (in order to get our hands on the dosh!) and the money was in our account EXTREMELY fast. A great little feature of the site allowed us to send thank you messages to all who had contributed, which meant we didn't have to spend hours writing letters! What a brilliant website!
