"What a fantastic service and so easy to use - we would definitely recommend Bliss List to anyone in need of a stress free wedding list! Especially if you're looking for an alternative to the traditional list, such as a honeymoon fund. Bliss list gave us the opportunity to ask our guests for donations but in a fun way, so that they could feel like they were actually purchasing something unique for us...and not just handing over a cheque. Chris & Sarah are very professional but at the same time really personable, and any queries were answered within a day - usually quicker! We unfortunately had a cashflow crisis 'mid-honeymoon' (through no fault of our own I hasten to add) - so we wrote a quick e-mail to Bliss List and Chris arranged a transfer of the available funds from our list, which was in our bank in a matter of days. Thank you Bliss List!!!"
Nick & Hannah, West Sussex, 19th December 2009
"I'd really recommend Bliss List. It allows you to request specific items, or just give your guests some ideas - and they don't have to buy through the site, but can tick a 'reserved' box to say that's what they're getting. The backstage team are really friendly and give you a personal touch - well done - this is something quite special."
Gill & Simon, Bath, 19th December '09
"We would just like to say a big thank you to Bliss List for providing such a good, efficient and personal service. It is great value and the site provided us with the flexibility we needed to manage our honeymoon fund in the way that we wanted to. Thanks!"
Andy & Susan, Jersey, 24th Oct 2009
"Bliss list was ideal for us as we wanted spending money for our honeymoon but it allowed our guests to feel like they were buying tangible items rather than just donating cash. As we were only having a small wedding, being charged a percentage rather than a fixed fee made sense and it was much less than other similar websites. The customer service was friendly and efficient and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them."
Emma & Carl, Hitchin, 10th Oct 2009
"We used Bliss List to set up our own honeymoon gift list. The website was easy to set up and we were even able to add web links so that our guests could read up on the activity themselves before they purchased. Our guests loved the site and the ease of use - we will definitely use Bliss List again if we ever had the need to. The customer service was excellent - if we sent a question it was answered quickly. "
Alex & Karen, Coleford, 3rd Oct 2009
"We used Bliss List for our wedding gift list and would recommend it to everyone. It was very easy to set up and edit along the way. Our guests found it easy to purchase a gift for us and the customer service provided by Bliss List is outstanding. Commission rate is lower than most of the gift list websites we came across and they handle payments rather than Paypal. It is really easy to see who has bought you a gift and the thank you manager makes it easy to ensure you can thank each person for their gift. Great service!"
Kevin & Vicky, Bracknell, 19th Sept 2009
"Chris and Sarah at Bliss List were so helpful and efficient at getting our gifts to us. The whole process was so painless which is great, you have enough to think about whilst planning a wedding so knowing that we didn't have to worry about our gift list was a godsend. The commission charges can't be beaten and we were always kept updated on where we were with our gifts. We would strongly recommend Bliss List and have told all our friends that are getting married about it. Thanks again for such a great service and making our honeymoon so much more perfect."
Sally & Chris, Reading, 12th Sept 2009
"We could not fault the service from Bliss List. The list was incredibly easy to set up and we could completely personalise it to ask for whatever we wanted- this was important to us as we did not ask for 'material' gifts but instead things such as honeymoon flights, a wine tasting tour on honeymoon, cocktails and romantic meals. We also added in a selection of charity gifts and many guests chose to give a combination of 'treats' and charity donations which was exactly what we wanted. None of the guests had any problems using the list and the money was transferred into our account just a couple of days after our wedding. We felt the commission was very reasonable compared to some of the other websites and it was reassuring to know we would never have to pay more than £50. As the credit card charges would have been the responsibility of the guests (which was made very clear as was the fact that bank transfers and cheques would NOT be charged), none of our guests chose to pay by card so no one was charged. I have a feeling that if the charges were picked up by the couple (as on many other websites) then a lot of the guests would have taken the 'easy option' of paying by card and we would have seen a lot less of our money! I would not hesitate to recommend Bliss List- we did a lot of research and I really feel this is the best value for money website and offers extremely good service."
Kate & Dan, Henley-on-Thames, 5th Sept 2009
"We are extremely happy with the website and the service we've received from Bliss List. I'd highly recommend them to other people. It's easy to set up and exciting to watch the emails come in notifying of new gifts. Thanks for your friendly, hassle free service."
Nigel & Kirstyne, St Helier, 5th Sept 2009
"A very easy to use service, reasonably priced, and it gives the wedding couple the most flexibility for their list (allowing you to choose list items from anywhere, and bespoke items). Customer service was always personal and prompt, and receiving payments was easy. I would recommend this service without hesitation."
Stephen & Anna, London, 29th August 09
"The service from Bliss List and Sarah and Chris was perfect. They kept regular contact with us about the status of our list, we were informed every time we received a gift. There were no set up fees and only paid 2.5% of the total value of the fund we received, which is capped at a maximum of £50, you can't beat that anywhere. We searched through many sites but no others offered the flexibility that todays day and age requires. We have lived together for 5 years and have all of the normal toasters and plates, so we were able to ask for money towards our honeymoon, cocktails by the pool, contributions towards a yacht cruise, a romantic meal for two, you can have anything you want and even add links to other websites. The service we received was fantastic, and I would certainly recommend to anyone, it's a shame we won't need to use them again, although there is always special birthday's or anniversaries I guess. Thank you so much"
Kate & David, Leeds, 27th August 09
"We heard of Bliss List through a close friend who had used them for their wedding months prior to ours. We emailed and asked questions etc and from that first email the service has been first class. Your emails are always replied to within a day,no question or query is ever a problem. They make the whole experience personal and stress free! I didn't panic about anything as they take care of it so well,there was never anything to worry about! Even when I ran out of cards to give to guests within days I had another pack posted out to me! Our guests loved the idea and how easy it was to use the format! The payment was on time and everything they say they do as a company,they do and more. The whole experience has been a pleasure and I would recommend Bliss List to anybody and everybody in the near future! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did! Thanks again,wishing you lots of success."
Lauren & Mitchell, Leicester, 22nd August 2009
"Bliss List was a fantastic option for us and meant we had extra spending money for our honeymoon. Bliss List was great! Our guests felt like they were giving us a gift, rather than just money, and it was great to add our own special touch to the list. The staff at Bliss List kept in touch with us throughout, and made us feel at ease with the whole process. A fantastic option for couples who want more choice for their gift list, and Bliss List is one that I would thoroughly recommend. "
Annabel & Mike, Aberdeen, 21st August 2009
"Bliss List was perfect for us as it offered us total freedom so we could ask for a whole variety of presents without being tied to one shop. The service we received was excellent, prompt and friendly. The perfect wedding gift list website!"
Joe & Ellie, Wimbledon, 8th August 2009
"We highly recommend Bliss List as an alternative to a traditional wedding gift list and especially if contributions to honeymoon are preferred. Customer service was excellent from my initial questions to the final payment. Thank you Bliss List for providing and managing our wedding gift list so efficiently."
Chris & Tillie, Vancouver, Canada, 7th August 2009
"Bliss List have been fantastic, we found setting up the list very simple and easy. Our friends and family loved the list and Chris and Sarah were great if there were any problems when people ordered gifts. They replied to emails very promptly and were extremely helpful. The payments came through with ease before and after the wedding and the fees Bliss List charge were well explained and so much cheaper than any other company. I will be recommending Bliss List to all my friends and family. "
Iwan & Rebecca, Berkshire, 18th July 2009
"We definitely recommend Bliss list to any bride and groom. The website has a great look and is such a good idea for couples who don't need another set of plates! The website is very easy to set up and easy to use by your guests. Both Chris and Sarah are always on hand to answer your questions. "
Mike & Maria, Basingstoke, 18th July 09
"As one only marries once, I will probably not use Bliss List again!! I will however recommend the site to friends and family as it was easy to use, flexible, and all the payments were received promptly and as frequently as we wished. Thank you"
Adrian & Siri, London, 27th June 2009
"Superb, gives you the flexibility to have your wedding list exactly the way you want it!"
Vinny and Beckie, Twickenham, 27th June 2009
"We liked the site because it wasn't complicated, had a good choice of graphics and the ability to add your own photo and personality to our list. The only feedback we had from our guests was "what a great idea". A lot of my friends are already planning to use Bliss List for their upcoming nuptials."
Joanna & Rob, Guildford, 13th June 2009
"Bliss List is the only wedding gift site I would recommend! Excellent value, easy to use, very adaptable to every couples wants and needs and a personal service given near the time of your wedding."
Mark & Amy, Burford, 31st May 09
"A great service - you aren't tied to a particular shop, tour operator, etc, it's really easy to manage and add to your list, the after-wedding service was good and it's cheaper than similar services on the web. Thoroughly recommend it."
Matt & Rachel, Morpeth, 21st May 2009
"My Wife and I had lived together for about 3 years before we got married and we had pretty much everything we needed or wanted so arranging the usual wedding list at some department store was totally unnecessary. Bliss List allowed our guests to give us something we really needed help with, a Honeymoon! We went to Bali and had the best time ever, Thanks to Bliss List. So Thank you very much Bliss List. We wish you ever success. "
Peter & Jackie, London, 16th May 2009
"Simple, honest and friendly service. Friends can either easily give money or reserve something that they can personalise. The perfect old-fashioned wedding list updated to now."
Adrian & Alice, Coventry, 16th May 2009
"We decided to go with Bliss list because their comission rate was very reasonable compared with most other online companies. Like a lot of couples we only wanted money to help with the cost of our wedding as we have lived together for some time now and have enough salad bowls and dinner sets to last a lifetime. The list was very easy to set up and we were able to break our honeymoon down into components such as flights, spa day, romantic meals, boat trip, etc. so our guests still felt they were buying a gift and not just handing over cash. The website also allows you the option of using actual gifts in your list. We are really pleased with the service we received, they kept us fully informed throughout and were quick to answer questions. We just received our final payment and would absolutely recommend using Bliss List to anybody. "
Steven & Laura, Leigh-On-Sea, 13th May 2009
"Bliss List really suited us as we didn't want the usual department store gift list. We could add whatever gifts we wanted, from contributions towards our honeymoon to donations to charity. Bliss List was easy to use and the commission is really low so it's hardly cost us anything. We thoroughly recommend it!"
Rachel & Dan, Clackmannanshire, 9th May 2009
"We found Bliss List on the web after researching a number of companies all charging up to 9% of the total gift collection. The site was user-friendly, excellent value and hassle-free. We were emailed each time a gift came through and Sarah kept us up to date with progress of payment etc. We felt totally secure using the site and our guests also commented on how good a service Bliss List provided. The service was faultless and we would both highly recommend to anyone setting one up. Have a fab wedding!!"
Jamie & Jessica, London, 9th May 2009
"We decided to use the Bliss List as we did not want to be tied down to one list at one shop. Also we wanted to add 'experiences' for our honeymoon such as trips and cookery classes. The Bliss List was perfect for this and we will and have recommended the service to everyone we know who is getting married. It was great to have a one stop service that took all of the hassle out of the gift buying. Coming home from the honeymoon and buying loads of gifts for ourselves was fun too!!"
Ruth & Andy, Dundee, 9th May 2009
"We would definitely recommend using Bliss List for anybody wishing to set up an online wedding gift list. We already had all the household items that we needed and Bliss List enabled us to create a list of Honeymoon items that our guests could contribute too. It was really easy to create and maintain our lists and good fun watching the emails arrive with details of the gifts and the personal messages. The team at Bliss List always provided prompt replies to our queries and were very flexible about the payments which were transfered to our accounts on request. Its a great service at a cost that is a fraction of what you can pay elsewhere."
Matthew & Shirley, Hereford, 2nd May, 2009
"We would highly recommend Bliss List. The customer service is excellent, with regular updates emailed to you, speedy responses to any queries and flexibility over the payment process. It's really easy to use and the charges are the most reasonable that we had found. Overall a fantastic find for us - thanks Bliss List!"
James & Montse, London, 26th April 2009
"Bliss List offer a fast and efficient service and we encountered no problems with the site at all. Great communications, money was transferred into our account exactly when expected without delay. Bliss List gave us the flexibility to include Honeymoon activities as well as homewares. Have already recommended you to some friends who are getting married. Thank you for your fantastic website and service."
Kelly & Leigh, Bedfordshire, 25th April 2009
"Bliss List is not only the best wedding gift list service on-line, it is the only gift lift worthy of consideration. "
Angela & Chris, Ross-shire, 18th April 2009
"A great web site, easy to use, friendly and efficient. Would recommend to anyone looking for a gift list that allows them to select a more personal array of gifts."
Ian & Sarah, London, 28th Feb 2009
"A great website run by a friendly and helpful team. It is a very easy to use site that lets your guests give you cash but also feel like they are contributing to a specific item. This is useful when you need money for things that you cannot buy in a shop like a candle lit meal on the beach or a diving trip when you are on your honeymoon. It was useful to be able to have the money transferred to us in stages, you don't have to wait until a week after your wedding to get your hands on the cash! It comes in handy when you have to pay for things in advance as we did. We also found the Thank you manager a huge help as it tells you who you have and haven't sent a thank you to, don't want to upset any one!!"
Dan & Bekki, Plymouth, 21st Feb, 2009
"We used Bliss List to create a honeymoon list. It was so much more flexible than a single store list. Compared to other gift list websites, Bliss List was really good value. The list was easy to create and the Bliss List team were always really good at keeping in touch. We were able to access any cleared funds whenever we wanted. All in all a great service."
Neil & Liz, Brighton, 7th Feb 2009
"A big THANK YOU to Bliss List for a brilliant service. It was so simple to set up and use. The real plus for us was being able to combine honeymoon activities and treats with more traditional items. The big bonus for our guests was being able to reserve items and linking to other websites so they could get us the gifts themselves."
Sarah & Jamie, Northamptonshire, 5th December 2008
"A great service to use. So easy and great value for money. Definitely worth using!"
Jeroen & Joanna, London, 2nd December 2008
"Thank you Bliss list for making our wedding list hassle free, easy to use and for your lovely card on our wedding day! - it really made a difference and if we were getting married again we would use you in a flash!"
Iain & Kerry, Isle of Man, 31th October 2008
"Two weeks to go... and so pleased we chose Bliss List. Family and friends have happily contributed to, or purchased a variety of wedding materials (from wedding certificate, to rings and honeymoon)! We didn't need another toaster but the financial help has been great! Contributing to the wedding has made everyone feel a real part of it! Bliss List have been honest and helpful and provide a much needed service at a very decent price! I won't be coming back but only because I don't intend to get married more than once!"
Daphne & Simon, Lancing, 18th October, 2008
"We found Bliss List to be the perfect solution for us. The customer service is the best we have come across and response to any questions was immediate and very helpful. Our experience was extremely positive and we are happy to recommend Bliss List to all our friends. We wish Bliss List continued success that it well deserves. If only all companies that provides wedding services had the same work ethic!"
Jennifer & Francis, Enfield, 4th October 2008
"We really enjoyed using Bliss List for our wedding, and received very friendly and quick responses from the team who gave us bank transfers whenever we wanted. Our guests all loved using the site and the fact that you can put absolutely anything you like on it with web links to all your items. Furthermore Bliss List is the best value on the web too. We would whole-heartedly recommend Bliss List."
Olivia & Chris, Woking, 27th Sept 2008
"We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Bliss List service. I did quite a lot of research and it was by far the cheapest and turned out to be very flexible and easy to use. The real bonus was the personal touch offered by the staff in keeping us up to date with the level of contributions and timely payment of those contributions (to fund our honeymoon)."
Jon & Becky, London, 27th September 2008
"We couldn't recommend Bliss List more. It was extremely easy to set up our list, we were very happy with how it looked and our guests all found it easy to use too. The service from Chris and Sarah was fantastic at every stage plus it was refreshing not to be ripped off with inflated prices just because it was a wedding. Many thanks for everything."
Kevin & Kerry, Doncaster, 26th Sept 2008
"Dear Chris and Sarah, I am writing to say how thrilled my husband and I are with the service Bliss List provided. It was one of the simple joys of planning and executing our wedding. You
were speedy and friendly with every email you sent and the service could not have been better. Guests loved the icons for each gift and I encourage engaged friends to have their
gift list with you. If good service in business is duly rewarded, Bliss List will go from strength to strength. Thank you so much for the pleasure."
Jo & Kev, Oxford, 19th Sept 2008
"Thank you for your efficient, reliable and friendly service. You did everything you said you would with no hidden costs."
Daniel & Zoe, Nottingham, 13th Sept 2008
"Excellent service, inexpensive and throughly recommended!"
Lucy & Jason, Bristol, 11th Sept 2008
"We loved the service with Bliss List! It was great to be able to customize our presents with pictures, descriptions and links to the actual present! We had family and friends come from all over the world! They were all able to access the wedding list and found it really easy to use! We have been treated like queen & king with prompt replies and personalized service. We would recommend Bliss List to anybody! Enjoy & Congratulations!"
Mark & Kristin, Kirkham, 6th Sept 2008
"As we had lived together for some time, we didn't need many of the things that you need when setting up a home for the first time. However, we didn't just want to ask for money and we liked the idea of guests being able to give something that they chose for us if they liked rather than feeling limited to a list. Bliss list provided all this and more! Fab service, honest and reliable and really nice to contact. We even received a wedding congratulations card! I have strongly recommended you to many posters on youandyourwedding chat room! "
Emily & Robert, Walthamstow, 30th Sept 2008
"Thank you Bliss List for being professional and efficient wedding website. Keep up the good work. "
Michelle & Callum, London, 25th August 2008
"We found out about Bliss List after seeing a recommendation on a wedding forum. We looked at other sites but commission was so high that big chunks of our 'honeymoon' money would have disappeared. We decided to go ahead after checking the Bliss List website and reading the explanation of why Bliss List was set up. What struck us was a real sense of genuine motivation to create an efficient, low-cost and friendly service rather than just adding to the dominated market, yet another site driven by capitalising on couples getting married. The list itself, was so easy to set up and when guests started buying from the it, we got an email straight away, letting us know a gift had been bought. It was really lovely to get the emails and to read all the messages. None of the magic of receiving a gift was lost, which to me was really important. We drew our money out in stages, as we needed some before the wedding and then also before and during the honeymoon. Chris, would immediately arrange payment and email a statement to us, showing the breakdown of money sent. We had been apprehensive about using Bliss List, as it had seemed just too good to be true. But it was both 'good' and 'true' and we would recommend it to anyone. Many of our guests commented on what a fab idea and great service it was and some are using it now for their weddings. Bliss List work off recommendations and don't advertise which keeps the commission low. Though this sometimes means it can be harder finding them but as more people use them, the more this little gem of a company is getting known. We are delighted we found it and happy to pass on the good news! They are simply brilliant!!!"
Eleanor & Russell, Hull, 9th August 2008
"One word - Faultless!! The service we received was excellent and we were always kept up to date with payments. Very easy to use with a very useful 'Thank You Manager' which also stores our guests details for the thank you cards! Would recommend to all - by far the most competitive and best service available! Thank You Very Much!!!!"
Darragh & Helen, Oxted, 8th August, 2008
"What a wonderful website. You have done everything you promised and more and have achieved this in a fast and friendly way. Communication with yourselves was second to none. We had great feedback from our guests about how easy the site is to use and they all loved the idea of a honeymoon gift list. Thank you so much for making our wedding gift lift such an enjoyable and relaxed experience. I'm only sad our wedding is over now so I can't use the site anymore. I will definitely recommend you to all my friends. A huge thanks to you."
Amy & Matthew, Norwich, 3rd August, 2008
"We found Bliss List so easy to use. We just wanted contribution to our honeymoney and it was nice for our guests to be bale to pay for specific things such as meals out or a trip somewhere. The communication and service we have received from Chris at Bliss List has been excellent and receiving the money was trouble free. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING"
Lizzy & Andrew, Castleford, 26th June 2008
"Having lived together for 5 years before getting married we already had all the usual wedding type gifts. Bliss List was great as it allowed us to get contributions towards items we would actually make use of rather than receive presents that we didn't really need. It relieved any uneasiness about asking people for money when they didn't know what it was going to be used for. People felt they could contribute towards the big day, something for the honeymoon or give us a little pampering."
Catherine & Ben, Croydon, 5th July 2008
"We loved Bliss List!! Having lived together for a few years we didn't need anything for our home - funding most of the wedding ourselves, we wanted help with our honeymoon and this list allowed people to help us have a dream honeymoon. We were able to personalize the list which the guests thought was a great idea and really loved being able to give us an "experience". My friends who were married years ago were very jealous. This was a great way to personalize our event even more. "
Jane & Andy, London, 5th July 2008
"Bliss List is very easy to use service; our guests found this to be the case, too (one has decided to use it for his upcoming wedding, too). Also, Chris (the owner) was very helpful over the phone when I called with a question. Finally, it is a great value service."
Holly & Paresh, London, 24th June 2008
"If your looking for a fast, easy and convienient way to set up your wedding gift list, then look no further than Bliss List. This site for us, was ideal from start to finish. Not only is it easy to set up, it allows you to choose exactly what gifts you want to place on it, from many different sites or places, not like others where you have to have, what they sell. The other good thing about this site compared to the majority of gift sites out there, is that they dont charge you a large fee for using it and certainly dont take a large piece of your fund at the end. They simply take a small fee, which really puts others sites to shame, and outlines exactly how so many people are trying to profit from your special day. I would recommend anyone to use this site over any other. "
Claire & Steve, Gainsborough, 28th June 2008
"Other wedding list companies I spoke to were not willing to do what we wanted and were a bit unhelpful to say the least! Chris at bliss list on the other hand was really friendly and helpful. He was happy to help us with all our unusual requests; creating many new categories for us and explaining clearly how the site worked. Chris also kept us up to date with all the payment info. It was the one part of the wedding organising that worked like a dream and all our guests commented on how unique the list was."
Hannah & Federico, London, 21st June 2008
"Bliss List are great. The site allowed us the flexibility to make our honeymoon sound fun and interesting and let guests feel like they had really contributed rather than just giving cash. Chris at Bliss List was very helpful when we had any questions at the start and along the way and has kept us completely up to date with payments etc a really nice personal touch. The whole process was seamless which was very much appreciated during the run-up to the wedding when everything starts getting a bit manic! Thanks very much Lucy and Geoff"
Lucy & Geoff, London, 7th June 2008
"Bliss list is such an easy way to create your own dream list. It was such fun to do and we are looking forward to going out and choosing the exact things that WE want now rather than what our guests THINK we want. "
Stuart & Marneta, Oxford, 1st June 2008
"We found Bliss List really easy to use - we set up our list in minutes and it looked fantastic. The transferring of money went smoothly and someone was always on hand to answer any queries we had."
Dan & Lan, London, 31st May 2008
"We just want to say a huge thank you to Bliss List for a wonderful site. We have only recently been married and have just received all of our funds, but from start to finish it was totally stress-FREE. The list was very easy to put together and our guests also commented on how easy it was to purchase from. We have received such good service, as we had a couple of questions at the beginning and they were answered very quickly and we didn't have to chase anyone for the payments either. So once again a HUGE thank you for making the whole experience a pleasurable one."
Julie & Colin, Bebington, 30th May 2008
"We would strongly recommend using Bliss List to anyone looking for a site to manage their 'honeymiles'. Not only because it was so easy to set up and use, but more importantly, for the incredibly low commission taken and the personal friendly service you receive from the couple who run it (newlyweds themselves!). So many companies try to cash in on you as soon as you mention the word 'wedding' - not Bliss List."
Petter & Georgiana, Orpington, 3rd May 2008
"We hunted high and low for a site to offer our guests the opportunity to give us money for our honeymoon trip but without actually asking for money. We stumbled upon Bliss List by chance and we are so pleased we did. We have had excellent service from Chris who has been happy to help whenever we have needed it. The service is unique and I would highly recommend it to anyone!"
Michael & Rebecca, Harrogate, 25th April 2008
"Thanks very much for everything, we were delighted with the service, the communication was great and it was so easy to use! In this day in age it is 'bliss' to find something so quick and easy to do and when planning a wedding time is of the essence, Bliss List took me a mere half an hour to set up."
Leon & Hanni, Plymouth, 18th April 2008
