Dear Friends & Family:

Blessed to have found one other, Todd and I also appreciate how fortunate we are to be surrounded with such wonderful friends and family. Your impact on our individual lives has been uniquely positive, and now shapes our collective future. For that, we are forever grateful.

Already in possession of the many "essential" home items a newly engaged couple desires, and convinced that newly created memories will be the jewels of our lives together, we concluded a 'Honeymoon Registry' was the ideal solution.

Having shared many exciting events together, Todd and I both relish and cherish your participation in creating our perfect honeymoon, our first real adventure as husband and wife!

Grateful for your continued presence and generosity, along with our dedication to one another, we both thank and celebrate you alongside our upcoming union!

See you in Lake Oswego!

Love,
Simone and Todd

We're going to Paris and French & Italian Riviera!

We couldn't be more thrilled about our upcoming adventure. We both have such an incredible passion for travel and are thoroughly taking advantage of making this a "once in a lifetime trip." We wanted to combine cuisine, arts, history, beaches and making beautiful memories. We decided that a visit to Paris (we've both never been!) followed by a yacht cruise of the French and Italian Riviera would fulfill all of our indulgent criteria. The yacht is described as intimate and magical for Honeymooners...How Perfect! We are so excited to share this trip with all of you!

Here is our anticipated itinerary:

Paris, France for 3 days to visit the Louvre, The Eiffel Tower and The Palace of Versailles.

We then catch a train to the South of France to board our Yacht Cruise in Nice.

From Nice we set sail on a Seven-Day cruise and will visit 7 Ports of Call including:

Portofino, Italy
Cinque Terre, Italy
Florence, Italy
Portoferraio, Elba Italy
Corsica, France
Rome, Italy

We will then spend 2 days in Rome and fly home. It is going to be a jam-packed trip and I know we are going to have a fabulous time! We can't wait to share our stories with you!
