Australia-Based Digital Wedding Registry Startup 'Envelope Registry' Announces US Launch
Envelope Registry Launches with Stunning Design and an Ultra-Personalized Platform
MELBOURNE, Australia, April 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Australia-based digital wedding registry startup Envelope Registry today announced the availability of their cash contribution service in the US. Envelope enables couples to beautifully and delicately ask for cash to use on various experiences and items in lieu of a traditional wedding gift.
"We're seeing a paradigm shift with modern couples wanting to receive experiences, or to choose physical items from different independent makers rather than getting everything from one department store," said Simon Baldwin, co-founder of Envelope. "Envelope is catered to the folks who'd rather share a bottle of wine with the friends who bought it for them, or create memories wandering through a foreign city, than receiving a kitchen blender from a big box store."
Unlike other cash funds in the market today, Envelope focuses on making the gifting experience personal and meaningful for both the betrothed and the wedding guests. Using stunning imagery sourced from the VSCO community, both couples and guests are met with a platform that is simply beautiful.
Guests can contribute money toward items, such as 100 miles towards an airline ticket or bottles of wine, and Envelope transfers the money to the couple. Couples have a choice of more than 200 experiences/items to choose from, including everything from yoga lessons to dinner in Paris. If users can't find what they're are looking for, all they need to do is email Envelope and they will create the item for you!
Additionally, Envelope will be launching a service in June 2015 that helps couples manage their thank you cards. All newlyweds will need to do is type a personal note to each of their guests, upload a photo, or choose from a range of beautiful hand-made cards, and Envelope prints, hand writes and mails them out.
To build excitement in the US market about Envelope's official launch, Envelope will be matching one lucky couple's registry dollar for dollar up to $5,000!
