Hi everyone!

Thanks for visiting our honeymoon registry!

When we were trying to decide where to register, we came across this site and thought it would be a fun way to get our friends and family involved with our honeymoon planning. We will forever associate you with all the fun activities we have planned (from adventure to pure relaxation), and we will send pictures to show our wide grins!

We thank you for helping to celebrate our new life together, and look forward to more celebrations in person!

Mimi and Alan

We're going to Vietnam and Cambodia!!

When we were trying to figure out where to go for our honeymoon, we had several criteria in mind. First, it had to be someplace neither of us had ever been or would have another chance to visit anytime soon. Second, it had to have a little of everything -- sun, culture, and good hiking. And finally, we wanted somewhere with a touch of mystery, great natural beauty and romance. So, we're waiting to take our honeymoon until December, when it will be freezing in Washington but warm in ... Vietnam and Cambodia! We'll spend the 12 day journey experiencing the incredible temples of Angkor Wat, sailing amonst the limestone at Halong Bay (and sea kayaking, too!), checking out the breathtaking royal tombs at Hue on a romantic river cruise, taking a cooking class at Hoi An, and more! It's going to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and we are so grateful to you for helping us make it a reality!
