Hatch My House Online Wedding Registry Helps Engaged Couples Save for a House

March 19, 2012

Hatch My House launches a unique online wedding gift registry that lets couples save for a house of their dreams with the help of closest friends and family.

Created for the new generation of newlyweds, Hatch My House provides a fresh alternative to traditional registries for couples who want to save toward a down payment on a house in a unique and personal way.

In an elegant, tech savvy solution, Hatch My House lets family and friends contribute toward the couple’s goal of home ownership through a fun, interactive experience...Items throughout the house range from $25 to $900 and guests can set their own price on an item or select multiple gifts to arrive at their desired price range.

According to wedding etiquette expert Peggy Post, “It is okay for the couple to signal that gifts of money would be welcome. As with registries, give this information out by word of mouth: “Of course we would love anything you get us, but we could really use help with a down-payment on our first home.”

Hatch My House wedding registry is free to set up and uses secure payment methods through Paypal to accept wedding gifts. The service fee of 5.9%, which includes Paypal fees, can be paid by the couple or their guests.

“Giving couples the option to save toward a home is both practical and deeply meaningful,” said Erin-Marie MacEwen, who cofounded Hatch My House with her husband Rieve. “Little by little, couples are able to move forward as a family, building their home and making their dream a reality."

HatchMyHouse was started by San Francisco couple Erin-Marie and Rieve MacEwen for their own wedding...The MacEwens created Hatch My House for their own wedding.

Now, Hatch My House is available to engaged couples worldwide and makes a great online gift registry for couples planning a destination wedding.
