One of my bestie's did this when she got married. They had wedding registries but also the honeymoon registry. They already were living together in a house at the time they got married and they in not so many words, "strongly encouraged" people to purchase from the honeymoon registry rather than the traditional gift registries (created only to appease the groom's mother/family). So that's what my husband and I did--we got them a breakfast in bed upgrade for two mornings to help make their honeymoon more memorable/enjoyable rather than "housewares" they didnt really need or want.
I think this is a type of gift that should replace a wedding gift, not something extra along with a shower & wedding gift.
