Thanks for visiting our honeymoon registry! The greatest wedding gift in the world is being able to share it with all of you. There is nothing more we could ask for than to be able to celebrate the happiest day of our lives surrounded by all the people we love and care about the most. Thank you so much for joining us as we embark on the adventure of our lives! We look forward to seeing you in San Francisco in October!

Over the years, mostly due to Christyn’s love of cooking, we have accumulated all of the kitchen and home appliances we can fit in our tiny San Francisco apartment (and then some!). So we thought in lieu of a traditional registry we would create this amazing honeymoon registry where everyone could be a part of the most exciting adventure of our lives – a once-in-a-lifetime trip to kick-off our lives together!

When most little girls think of their wedding they picture white dresses, flowers and bridesmaids, Christyn dreamt of honeymooning in the Maldives. This is one of the most romantic and relaxing places in the world – a perfect place to begin our honeymoon celebration. And since we’re flying so far we thought we’d round out our trip with some history in Cambodia, sightseeing in Bangkok and relaxing fun-in-the-sun in Bali.

We’re looking forward to experiencing a little of everything on this trip and we will do our best to document it so we can share our adventures with you. These memories will last us a lifetime, so we'd like to give you a big THANK YOU in advance for being a part of this magical experience!

Lots of love,

Christyn & Kevin

We're going to Maldives & Southeast Asia!

Since the best, and least expensive time to travel to the Maldives is in April, and we'll need some time to bank vacation from work and save as much money as possible, we'll be taking our honeymoon in April of 2015 instead of right after the wedding in October.

We'll be leaving San Francisco and traveling 42 straight hours to Malé, the capital of the Maldives where we will then take a seaplane to our private island resort. We will spend the first 4 days of the trip relaxing in our private, over-the-water bungalow in the middle of the Indian Ocean where we'll savor romantic dinners on the beach, enjoy breakfast in bed, embark on sunset sailing adventures, luxuriate in couple's massages by the water and revel in coral reef snorkeling - right outside our villa.

We'll then fly to Bangkok, Thailand where we'll spend 3 days exploring the beautiful Buddhist temples, tour the Chao Phraya River by boat, experience a traditional Thai massage, taste authentic Thai food by the water and on the street and, of course, be blown away by an exciting Ladyboy show.

Our next stop will be a brief stay in Siem Reap, Cambodia where we'll hire a private tour guide to help us explore the magnificent temple of Angkor Wat. This temple was built in the early 12th century, is the largest religious monument in the world and is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We'll only be staying for one night but this will give us an opportunity to explore the Night Markets of Siem Reap and taste authentic Cambodian cuisine.

After all of the exploring in Bangkok and Siem Reap, we'll be making our final stop in Bali, Indonesia. The last part of this trip will be spent mostly relaxing with a bike ride down the beach, an Indonesian cooking class and an afternoon with elephants thrown in for good measure. Our final night will be spent with a dinner ocean-side at one of Bali's most romantic restaurants.

Thank you for exploring our honeymoon registry and we look forward to making you a part of this sensational vacation!
