How does Our Big Wish.com work?
In 3 simple steps, you will be closer to having your Big Wish granted.

  1. Create a home cash gift registry account using the e-mail address that is associated with your PayPal account. (If you do not already have a PayPal account, please sign up for one. This account is where you will receive your money on your wedding day. (You may also have a check sent to your home.)
  2. Build your Personal Page, which includes your photo, information about your wedding, and a description of your Big Wish for your guests to read.
  3. Log on to view your account, make changes, and process withdrawal requests.

It's that easy!

What does this service cost?
We provide our home cash gift registry services at Our Big Wish at no charge to you, the happy couple. Your personal page and all account services are our gift to you.

How long before and after the wedding may guests give?
You can open your home cash gift registry with OurBishWish.com as soon as you desire. Your guests will have access to it from the time you register until 1 year after the wedding date.

Can I log in to view my balance?
Yes. When you log in to your account you will have the option to view all of the gifts given to you.

In case of an emergency can I withdraw money?
Our Policy at OurBigWish.com is that no money given to the Happy Couple may be withdrawn before their wedding date. This is for the security and protection of both the Couple and the Friends and Family giving the gifts. If you have more questions please feel free to contact our Customer Service Center.

Are there regulations on where and how I spend the money?
No. While we offer you this home cash gift registry service as an opportunity for you to save for a down payment, mortgage, or improvements to a home, you are free to spend the money as you wish.

How do I let my family and friends know about OurBigWish.com?
OurBigWish.com is happy to offer you 100 invitation insert cards free of charge. (If you would like more than 100 inserts, we still offer them free of charge, but will ask that you pay a $4 shipping charge.) These will help you tell your family and friends in a tasteful, stylish way that you've decided to register with OurBigWish.com. If you are interested in receiving these cards, please e-mail us at inviteinserts@ourbigwish.com and include your name and the address where you would like the cards sent.

Why should I use Our Big Wish to give my gift?
The Happy Couple who sent you to our site chose us because OurBigWish.com is the premier home cash gift registry site on the web today. We operate using top industry standards in Security and Protection. More and more people are getting married after having already established separate households. When combining "stuff", they find that what they need is not MORE stuff---but money to go towards putting a down payment on a home, paying for an existing mortgage, or helping with improvements to an existing home.

What does this service cost?
Our Big Wish is free of charge for the Happy Couple. For you, the Family and Friends, Our Big Wish adds an 8% service charge to cover our processing fees, customer service, and costs to operate the site. (This is less than the average tax, gift wrap, and shipping fees for most wedding gifts.) When you purchase part of a Happy Couple's Big Wish -- for example, giving $100 -- your loved one will receive ALL of the $100, unlike some other sites which charge the couple. You will pay $108-that's $100 + 8% service charge. Still have questions?
Please contact our Customer Service Center.

Where does the money go?
After completing your gift purchase with PayPal, the world's leader in on-line payment security technology, the money will be held in a secured account for the Happy Couple. On their wedding day, the money will be deposited directly into their account, or sent to them as a check, ready to be used to towards their Big Wish.

Does Our Big Wish have access to my credit card information?
No. Our Big Wish will never have access to your credit card information. Your money transactions will all take place on PayPal's secure servers.

How will the Happy Couple know the gift came from me?
The Couple has their own account which they are able to log into in order to view who has given them a gift.
