Welcome to our Traveler's Joy registry site!

As most of you know, Aries and I have been together for the past 2 years. Since we already have most of the typical household items, we've chosen this registry to fulfill one of our (well, mostly my) dreams of going to New Zealand. We will be taking part in The Hobbit premiere tour which will run from November 23 to December 7.

The best gift you can give us is your presence at our wedding (really!). However, if you would like to contribute to a gift, we would be so grateful if you can help fund our honeymoon. We've included some of the activities we'd like to try and the places we'd like to visit below.

Thank you for visiting our Traveler's Joy registry site and for considering a gift towards this amazing trip that we will remember for the rest of our lives!!! Please let us know if you have any questions. We look forward to celebrating with you on October 26 in Chicago.


Lots of love,

Laurice & Aries
