May 19, 2012

We have lived together in Oakland (with our loving pup Boxcar) for coming on 3 years now. Because of this, nearly all of our day-to-day essentials are already in use in our lives. We have simple tastes that don't call for fancy china, expensive linens, etc. What we really need is the opportunity to travel the world and gain some experiences to take us into the biggest adventure of our lives to date: marriage!

That is why we are asking for our wedding guests to gift us with funds for our upcoming honeymoon to London and Barcelona. We have plotted out many of the sights we want to take in, and will obviously fill every moment we can truly experiencing these new cities and countries. The prices seem exorbitant, trust us we know. But with the mighty, mighty, mighty US Dollar in the exchange rate, we will be spending more than usual on everything we plan and hope to do! Every dollar will be magically cut in half before we get our hands on Pounds and Euros.

Thank you in advance for helping to send us on this fantastic experience, we promise to take tons of pictures!

Love, Paul & Christina
