Hi Everyone! Welcome to our Honeymoon Registry!

Dennis and I thank you for being a part of our upcoming wedding.

We are very excited because our big day, October 2nd is quickly approaching. After much discussion, we decided to book a 10-day cruise to the Panama Canal.

As we thought about the "Registry" for our wedding, we both immediately knew that we really have many of the typical household things people normally give, like pots and pans or place settings. While we have China it mainly collects dust in our homes because we so seldom use it. We also wanted to come up with something that would be more meaningful and unique and that our family and friends would really enjoy giving to us.

Dennis and I believe our honeymoon will be a special trip that will last a lifetime in our memories and in our hearts.

So, we decided to add our own unique honeymoon registry! We thought you would like to review our itinerary and look at some of the things we plan to do on our cruise. Whatever gift you choose to give us, whether it's a contribution toward dinner, bottle of wine, a day tour, spa treatment or having cocktails while soaking up the sun, we are truly appreciative.

To donate a gift to our honeymoon, select one of the listed activities below, choose a number to the right of that item, and hit the "Give Gifts" button at the bottom of the page. You will be prompted for credit card information, and that's it! It's so easy!


We are so very happy to have your continued love and support.

With all our love,

Elva & Dennis

We're going to 10 Day Panama Canal Cruise!

We will be sailing on the Princess Cruise line and the name of our ship is the Island Princess. The Island Princess is described as a fabulous floating resort designed to make our stay onboard truly memorable. This vessel has 90% ocean-view staterooms - with over 700 balconies and a wrap-around Promenade Deck.

Our itinerary is as follows:


DAY DATE PORT ARRIVE DEPART

Sun Oct. 11 Ft. Lauderdale 5:00pm
Mon Oct. 12 At Sea
Tue Oct. 13 At Sea

Wed Oct. 14 Aruba 7:00am 1:00pm
Aruba is an island of contrasting terrain, from its white-sand shoreline to its cactus-dotted interior. The charming Dutch island is known for its superior snorkeling and duty-free shopping. Diving excursions include the wreck of a World War II German freighter.

Thu Oct.15 Cartagena, Columbia 9:00am 3:00pm
Cartagena is a fascinating city, nearly surrounded by lagoons, bays and the Caribbean Sea. Almost all excursions include a stop at the mall for jewelry shopping (the city is famous for emeralds). For those not interested in expensive jewelry, bargaining is expected at Las Bovedas, where coffee beans and handicrafts are good buys.

Fri Oct 16 Panama Canal (Partial Transit) (Cruising) 5:00am 3:30pm
The Panama Canal is both an engineering masterpiece and a natural wonder. Connecting the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the passageway crosses the huge, man-made Gatun Lake and the amazing Gaillard Cut, blasted out of solid mountainside. The great locks raise and lower your ship along a 50-mile waterway -- sometimes with just inches to spare on either side.

Fri Oct 16 Cristobal, Panama 4:00pm 8:00pm
Serving as the Atlantic entrance to the Panama Canal, Cristobal is one of the country's most important ports. Nearby is the international trade city of Colon, most notable for the Colon Free Zone, an import/export hub and a good place to shop. Also in Colon are magnificent colonial Spanish forts such as Fort St. Lorenzo.

Sat Oct 17 Puerta Limon, Costa Rica 7:00am 6:00pm
Puerto Limon serves as a gateway to the capital city of San Jose. Excursions to San Jose usually include a visit to the opera house, the crafts village of Moravia and a privately owned ranch. Other excursions here include a ride on the "banana train" to the banana-growing districts and a tour of a tropical flower farm.

Sun Oct 18 At Sea
Mon Oct 19 Ocho Rios, Jamaica 9:00am 4:00pm
This bustling town is backed against a wash of green hills and is home to one of the most celebrated attractions in the Caribbean -- Dunn's River Falls. Most passengers also choose to visit the tropical plantations, take a coastal yacht cruise or drift down a river on a bamboo raft.

Tue Oct 20 At Sea
Wed Oct 21 Ft. Lauderdale, FL 7:00am
