Hi Everyone!

Welcome to our lovely Honeymoon Registry! We could not be more excited to get married, and then take a trip of a lifetime! We decided on Italy because it is rich in culture and history! (Plus we can't wait to drink as much wine and eat as much pasta and gelato as possible!)

We'll start by leaving Kansas City behind and flying straight to Rome! From there, we'll take a car up to Florence and begin this amazing trip! We plan to soak in the sights and see many different museums, such as the Accademia and Uffizi!! Since Kala doesn't cook, we are tapping into her Italian heritage and taking a cooking class! Hopefully some of this will stick with her, so she can become a master Italian Chef when we get home!

After a few days of exploring Florence, we are heading to Greve in Chianti to stay in an adorable small hotel that dates back to the 1400's! We'll do lots of exploring and relaxing!

We'll board a train in Florence and head south to Naples. A few miles south is the town of Positano, where we'll be staying the next 4 days! This is where we'll take in the views and life of Italy from the coast!! We'll stay in a hotel with terrace views of the water! When we aren't just admiring the view, we'll head out to explore Positano, or for day trips to Capri, Almafi, and Ravello!

Next, we'll take the train back up to Rome and finish our trip exploring this historical city! We plan to spend time at the Vatican, taking in the view of the Colosseum, St. Peter's Square and so much more!!

Finally, we'll pack up and leave on a jet plane back to Kansas City! We'll have tons of great pictures, videos, and memories to then share when we get home! It'll be even more special knowing we were able to take this trip of a lifetime because of our amazing friends and family!

Ciao!
