Welcome to our Honeymoon Registry!

Instead of buying a traditional gift, you can help make our honeymoon the trip of a lifetime!

We will begin our honeymoon in Spain, where we will eat, drink, and be merry in Madrid, Barcelona, and the Pyrenees. Along our journey we plan on visiting Toledo, Segovia, Zaragoza, Andorra, Bilbao, San Sebastian, and Toulouse. Our final days will be spent in oh-so-romantic Paris before flying back to Miami.
