Hi everyone!

First off, we'd like to say that your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift we could ask for. The time, effort, and expense of traveling to be with us is something we deeply appreciate, and we are so thrilled that we will be able to celebrate with you.

We were blessed to have two homes that we combined, so we have all of the essentials. Since we don't need a lot of physical items, our registry is a little different from traditional ones. We are asking for gifts in the following ways:

1) You can help our honeymoon be even better (and cheaper) for us! We have registered for both experiences and travel items. Some of the items will be used for future adventures.
2) Our house needs a lot of love! We always appreciate gift cards to home improvement stores.
3) Donations in our names to Paws of Honor (https://pawsofhonor.org). This non-profit supports retired law enforcement and military canine in the years after their service so they can continue to live in comfortable homes with their handlers.

Thanks again and we can't wait to see you at the wedding - or earlier!

We're going to Vanuatu, Australia, and UAE!

We are going around the world! We picked Vanuatu as our main destination, but the flight path will literally bring us around the world. So we decided to make the most of it! Our trip will start with a week in Vanuatu in an overwater bungalow. We will then fly to Australia (with a day long layover in Fiji), where we'll see Steve Irwin's zoo and dive the Great Barrier Reef. Finally, we'll stay a couple nights in Dubai and eat at the top of the world before returning to Virginia.
