Thanks for visiting our honeymoon registry. We are looking forward to seeing everybody in Austin next October for the wedding. It will be wonderful to have all of our friends, family, and 8-10 of the local peacocks there to share this special day with us. We especially appreciate all of our friends and family that live outside of Texas who are planning to attend. We hope you'll enjoy Austin as much as we do.

After we were engaged, we realized that our stuff would also become engaged and hence we've spent the last 6 months whittling away the extra toasters, blenders, and coffee pots. An agreement was made when we began contemplating where to register - minimize the stuff factor. Instead, let's celebrate our love with a honeymoon that will create memories for a lifetime. When we are an old married couple it is the memories and experiences we will cherish from our younger days, not the fancy tea set. We hope that family and friends will celebrate us on our wedding day by helping us realize a dream honeymoon that we will reminisce about for the rest of our lives together.

We're going to Italy!

Italy Here We Come!! (with a little Switzerland and England thrown in for good measure).

Our honeymoon will commence with a flight from Austin to New York City to Zurich, Switzerland at which point we will take a train into Milan... yeah, we'll be ready for a couple glassed of Chianti and massage! We will travel around Northern Italy spending a few days in the Cinque Terre and then renting a car for the drive through Tuscany over to Venice. Next we fly to Sicily to take in the warmer weather and rub elbows with the mafia. Finally, we fly back to Milan, then off to London for a day (literally 24 hours), and then home sweet Austin.

Thank you so much for helping us have the honeymoon of our dreams.
