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 in our hearts, and we are so thrilled that we will be able to celebrate this happy occasion with you.

We have been blessed to have a lot of the "essential" home items a newly engaged couple needs. We hope you find this registry as a way to help us make our perfect honeymoon come true! While Joey and I have taken many exciting trips together, we are very much looking forward to our first real adventure as husband and wife. It is because of the lifetime of memories we will gain from this trip that we finally settled on a honeymoon registry. We greatly appreciate and will fondly remember these gifts for years to come. After all, the memories from this honeymoon will last a lot longer than a new set of wine glasses (especially at Ashley's breakage rate!).

We'll do our best to document our experience via photo and include it in your much-deserved "thank you" note.

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

Love,
Joey and Ashley

About Our Honeymoon

When deciding were to honeymoon, Ashley voiced her only requirement: a location where all one needs are flip flops and sun dresses. After many brainstorming sessions, we decided on Barbados, West indies. Barbados lies on the boundary of South America and the Caribbean. The island also satisfies Joey's desire to not burn up. The island's temperature is consistantly between 75-85 degrees year round.

We plan to stay away from the "tourists traps" that the South coast offers and do some exploring on our visit. We'll treat ourselves to a nice-resort type hotel to wind down for a few days, but take up the east and north coasts soon after for the remainder of the trip. The wild, east Atlantic coast provides for some amazing surf, scenic views, and a glimspe for the Bajan's past.

We'll also feed into Ashley's glory days of surfing!! We plan to take surf lessons together, sail, snorkel, hike and explore. It's advised to rent a car as well. It's actually called a "moke" and you drive on the left side of the road. That in itself should keep things quite entertaining!

We look forward to this incredible trip that will celebrate our committment to one another as husband and wife! We look forward to documenting the trip and sharing our stories with all of you.

Thank you for being apart of this speacial time in our lives and we look forward to seeing you at the wedding!
