Hello Everyone!

Thank you for visiting our honeymoon registry! As you all know, David and I love to wine, dine, and travel! Therefore, we have decided to register for the gift of travel rather than traditional gifts, especially since we just do not have room for housewares in our small apartment.

Since David has never been to Italy and I have been dying to go back, we have decided to travel all through the country with several stops along the way! Our love for France has also grown stronger ever since our visit together a couple of years ago, so we have decided that once we are done traveling through Italy, we are going to drive through Monaco to Southern France and experience the countryside together for the first time!

We are so excited for our honeymoon and cannot think of a better way to start our marriage than this adventure together. We tried to break up the cost of everything so rather than one person taking on the entire cost of something, we split it up to make it easier, which is why you will see that more than one person can contribute to the same gift (under the "still need" section).

We really appreciate you all giving us a gift that will make our honeymoon that much more special and we look forward to doing as many tours and tastings as possible!

Love Always,

Elyse & David
