Hello and welcome to our honeymoon registry!

We are looking forward to seeing everybody in Kauai in April. It will be wonderful to have all of our friends and family together to celebrate our special day with us.

We decided that in addition to a traditional registry, we would invite our family and friends to help us create honeymoon memories that will last a lifetime. This registry works much like a traditional registry - simply select one or more items below and we will receive notice of your gift.

Thanks so much for your generosity.

Love,
Esther & Rob

We're going to Greek Isles!

Both of us have long dreamt of visiting the Greek isles and realized that Greece's close proximity to Kaua'i made this the ideal time to visit. We'll depart the day after the wedding for the quick flight to Athens. Upon arrival, we'll spend one day exploring the Acropolis and sampling Athen's best greek food. That evening, we'll catch a flight to the fabled Santorini, where we'll spend a week relaxing and unwinding from the wedding. After Santorini, we'll spend a few days island-hopping by ferry to Folegandros & Naxos, then back to Athens and our flight home.
