Atlanta,
GA � February 2007 � Travel Spike,
the interactive leader in the travel and tourism marketplace, has teamed
with TheBigDay.com, the premier online honeymoon registry, to create brand
new Featured Destination and Featured Resort programs. As TheBigDay.com
partner, Travel Spike will highlight world-class resorts and destinations
to introduce couples and wedding planners to more ideas for honeymoon hot
spots and Destination Weddings.
Instead
of registering for toasters and other traditional items for a wedding,
couples on TheBigDay.com can now
register for the Honeymoon of their dreams and allow their guests to contribute
toward the honeymoon costs. Guests can give couples anything from a romantic
dinner at a top restaurant in Hawaii or a couples massage at a resort in
the Caribbean, to surfing lessons in Fiji, which the bride and groom can
enjoy during their honeymoon.
�Each
and every honeymoon should be as interesting and unique as the newlyweds
who will embark on it,� said Ryan Bifulco, founder and president of Travel
Spike. �Our partnership is an opportunity to combine our travel industry
expertise with the high-tech offerings at TheBigDay.com. And, since more
and more couples are using the Internet to book their honeymoon travel
or Destination Wedding, our joint venture will expose them to memorable
options and new destinations.�
�We
are very happy to have Travel Spike on our team and look forward to the
Featured Destination program,� said Michael Cottam, co-founder of TheBigDay.com.
�We want to make sure that those couples who register at TheBigDay.com
will see all the adventures, experiences, and romantic moments that are
possible at the Featured Destination. We know that Travel Spike has unsurpassed
talent and experience in the industry and are excited to leverage those
assets at TheBigDay.com.�
Destinations
and hotels that want to enhance their own website can use TheBigDay.com�s
best of breed honeymoon registration engine. The Destination or hotel could
showcase on their own website all the local amenities and attractions that
a wedding planner or couple would need to plan the perfect Honeymoon or
Destination Wedding.
