Traveler's Joy Honeymoon Registry
Lacey Rosenbaum & Heath Baumann
Hello Everyone-

Thank you for visiting our honeymoon registry! We decided to register for the gift of travel rather than traditional gifts because we just do not have room for housewares in our small apartment.

Since Heath has never been out of the country, we thought this would be a perfect time for him to go abroad. We have dreamed of visiting Europe, specifically the Mediterranean region, so we have planned a trip that will allow us to see as much as we can!

We are so excited for this trip of a lifetime. We can think of no better way to start our marriage than a romantic adventure together.

We really appreciate your support in sending us off to our wonderful honeymoon.

Love,
Lacey and Heath
Destination
