First off, we'd like to say that every ones presence at our wedding is the greatest gift we could ask for. The time, effort, and expense of traveling to be with us is something we deeply appreciate in our hearts, and we are so thrilled that we will be able to celebrate this happy occasion with everyone.

As many of you know, with both of us living on our own before we started our own home, we accumulated much along the way. The tea pots, silverware, pots and pans and glasses that seem to break so frequently seemed to be a bit unnecessary in the limited cabinet space we have left in our home. In researching, we found that the most rewarding gift we could receive would be a fantastic honeymoon. Viola! So here we are. We hope you find this registry as a way to help us make our perfect honeymoon come true! Over the years, we have taken a lot of trips together, but our dream trip to Napa Valley, I have been planning and researching for close to two years. As our first trip as man and wife, we couldn't think of a better place to go than the one place in the United States that has the best wine and food in the country, something we both agreed were are favorite things to do while vacationing. I hope this gives everyone a small glimpse of what a wonderful adventure we are embarking on together and a great vacation to steal when you are all ready to make your own trip out west.

Love, Andrea and Mike

We're going to Napa & Sonoma, California!

Our tentative honeymoon schedule will go as follows...

Friday: Land in San Francisco, sight see and spend the night
Saturday: finish sightseeing and make our way up to Napa
Saturday through Tuesday Nights: in Napa
Wednesday: we will drive up to the Mendocino Coast and stay a night on the ocean
Thursday: we'll venture down Highway 1 to Sonoma
Thursday and Friday: will be spent in and around Sonoma
Saturday Night: as late as possible we'll hop a flight home returning Sunday morning.

Throughout the trip we will bicycle around the vineyards, horseback ride in the Armstrong Redwoods Reserve, eat amazing food at some of the countries best restaurants, drink more wine, relax at a volcanic ash spa, see world class artwork and architecture, did I mention taste different wines and hopefully get some peaceful sleep and fantastic breakfast at the many different B&B's we'll be staying at.
