We’ve been asked what we’d like for a gift and the answer is simple: you, at our wedding, having a great time.But if you insist then we’ll say what we’d also love is the most amazing honeymoon possible. We have the basics covered but we’re hoping for the holiday of a lifetime. We want to see and do everything we’ve dreamed about and if you’d like to help us with that then read on!
Here’s how our gift list works. We hope you find something you’d like us to do, however all you New Yorker experts should feel free to add your own suggestion!
