@chucharro - The Elephant and Castle is a pub in Kensington, London that dates back to the 1800's. It is also a pub down the street from me in Adelaide, Australia. A quick google also points to one in Melbourne, one in Sydney as well as a North American chain. Your point?

My brother is getting married in Feb and has lived with his fiance for a couple of years now. They have everything they need and since they live interstate and I've not been to their house before, I don't want to get something decorative that will clash. I asked my brother if instead of a physical gift I could give him some money towards his honeymoon. He told me that a lot of people had offered him this so he and his soon-to-be arranged with their travel agent to have people be able to do just that. They haven't put it on the invite but if people ask them what they would like as gifts they mention that although they appreciate anything, the honeymoon option is there.

I personally think it comes down to the gift-giver. I love giving personal presents that mean something, but have no problems with gift-cards/cash. I'd rather a fun night out on me than having my present be stored in a cupboard somewhere. It is a bit tacky to ask people to pay for the actual wedding though.
