Getting Married: The I Do Foundation

Have you considered donating a portion of your wedding purchases to a good cause? Having your guests donate to your favorite charitable foundation? Skipping the expense and hassle of party favors and donating the money directly to The Center for Whale Studies?

This can be done either directly or through the I Do Foundation. Through the I Do Foundation, you can make a difference. Not only will they donate up to 8% of any gifts on your registry purchased through them, you can also ask guests (via your website, parents, family, and bridesmaids) that you would prefer, in lieu of presents, a charitable donation to be made to The CWS. (You can also set up your wedding web page with the I Do Foundation.)
