Chrissy & Tate

With your gift we'll spend a day exploring the gorgeous coastal town of Ravello--historically known as a destination for artists, musicians, and writers! We'll go to the Villa Cimbrone and Villa Rufolo gardens, visit the Duomo, walk along the water, and enjoy all this maritime city has to offer!

We're not just going to be stuffing our faces with cheese, pasta, and wine...we're going to attend an Opera as well! This will be a really special treat together enjoy as husband and wife. Chrissy might even wear high heels for more than 15 minutes for a change.

We'll be exploring and staying in Capri for one night on our trip. This generous gift would provide us a night in a luxurious private suite at a five star hotel in Capri.

After a romantic honeymoon dinner, we'll experience Rome by night! We will stroll to the unforgettable Trevi Fountain, then on to the Roman Pantheon built in 27 BC to sample the most praised ice cream in Italy. Next, we will have a nightcap at the Piazza Navona, considered the most beautiful square in Rome with its 3 Bernini fountains. We can't wait!

Sure, wine is delicious---but we love beer too! Cheers!

Many ancient culinary traditions and characteristics of Italy's distinct regional cuisines and traditional recipes are passed down from generation to generation. We will experience hands on instruction by our own professional Italian chef. It's true what they say, "Italians live to eat while the rest of the world eats to live."

Yes, we'll be relaxing on the coast for a lot of our trip--but we'll also stop in a few cities & explore. Maybe Chrissy will even show Tate where her family lived in Rome!

We would love to go on a few tours while we are in Italy--the country is full of history!

We will take a romantic honeymoon drive along the breath-taking Amalfi coast to the hilltop town of Ravello, with a lovely Romanesque cathedral and the famous gardens of the Villa Rufalo, then on to picture perfect Sorrento to dine outdoors with spectacular views of the Italian Riviera and of course shopping!

With your wedding gift we'll enjoy the bustling city of Naples, home to mouth-watering pizza, and then head off to Pompeii, filled with well-preserved ancient ruins and Italian treasures. A great honeymoon experience!

We'll be staying in a variety of hotels and homes while traveling in Italy. With your perfect gift we can plan ahead and upgrade to a room with a view on our once in a lifetime trip!

While we'll be staying in a variety of hotels and homes on our trip, admittedly it would be great to spend a few nights in a fabulous suite. With your wedding gift we will reserve a night in our Honeymoon Suite and indulge in luxury that exceeds all of our expectations. Our honeymoon suite is not just romantic; it's spacious, comfortable, luxurious and very private. Thank you for Suite Memories!

We are going to travel around the countryside and hope to stay in a private home for a few nights. With your gift, we'll be able to stay in our own villa on the water with spectacular views of the Amalfi coast.

With this gift, we'll be able to arrange for a personal chef to come to our private villa and make a delicious Italian meal for just the two of us using the freshest ingredients available. Our mouths are watering already!

What could be better than knowing we'll have breakfast to enjoy between the sheets? We'll order eggs florentine, cinnamon rolls, freshly squeezed orange juice and hot coffee which all seem to taste better served to us in bed!

When in Rome...get it!?!?  If you don't get it, let me spell it out for you:  we're going to have wine with every meal (and probably in between).  Don't judge us, we're on our Honeymoon!

Some nights we'll want to travel a little further down the wine list and try something new. With your gift, we can purchase a lovely bottle of wine that doesn't come from a box!

Italy is home to some of the finest wines in the world.  What can be better than enjoying a great Italian wine while in Italy?  Not much, my friend.  Not much.

Yes, more wine!  And on this night, we want something that involves going down into a cellar.  '94 was a good year, right? Let's get fancy, y'all.

Don't let the picture fool you--we'll be avoiding burgers & instead enjoying local Italian cuisine as much as possible.  Maybe we'll even find an old Italian couple who still make fresh pizzas from scratch at a hole in the wall pizzeria! Some days we'll even stop in a local grocery, buy a few items, and have a picnic together while sitting on the rocks and enjoying the fantastic views of the Amalfi coast. This gift will help fill our bellies on more quaint and spontaneous meals. (and yes, we plan on coming back 900 pounds heavier!)

As we explore Italy and stay in new places, a few of our hotels provide poolside food service.  Let's face it, it's our Honeymoon and we will have days when we won't want to do anything but lay around in the sun & have someone else bring us everything we want.  With this gift, you can help contribute to our blissful laziness!

Knowing us, there will probably be a few times when we intend to just have a basic lunch.  Then we'll meet some locals who convince us to share a bottle of wine with them, and we'll buy one for them in return. Next thing we know, it'll be dinner time, and even though we just ate our weight in pasta and gelato over a four hour lunch, we'll still go out again for dinner shortly after.

We will have to choose from all the local Italian restaurants in town to reserve the perfect table in a fantastic setting. We will tantalize our taste buds with homemade pasta, Panini, fresh Seafood, select an Italian vino and enjoy the best dessert ever, ending with a cup of cappuccino. Now that's amore! With each of these gifts we'll be able to enjoy ourselves trying all of the delicious varieties of Italian food each day.

We look forward to reserving intimate candlelit dinners for two. We'll choose quiet restaurants with a warm atmosphere, outstanding cuisine and impeccable service--and raise a toast to the beginning of our journey together as husband and wife.

We would love to shop around for our favorite piece of art as a cherished keepsake from our once in a lifetime trip. This gift will adorn our home for many years to come!

We will visit all the trendy stores on the main street in the heart of the busy city, checking out the classically elegant European clothes in all the boutiques. We'll shop until we drop!

We'll need to pack a few nicer pieces for dinner at some of the finest restaurants in Italy.

Our current luggage leaves much to be desired (ie: Chrissy always ends up stuffing extra items in Tates bag). With this gift, we'll have spiffy new luggage to break in on our honeymoon!

Before we sweep ourselves away on a romantic honeymoon--there's some shopping to do! A cute pair of flats for strolling on cobblestone streets, a hat that makes Tate look sharp, sunscreen, bathing suits, and cute outfits that easily transition from day to night.

With this gift you can help us travel to and from the airport!

Europe has a great railway system, and we'd love to take a quick trip to another city without having to drive. Thanks to your gift, we'll be able to do so. Can't wait to send you pictures of the stunning views of the Italian countryside from our train window!

We'll be renting a car for our stay so we can easily travel between destinations and explore the country. Each gift will help cover our car rental for one day. We plan on renting a convertible--Chrissy will wear a scarf that gets blown away by the wind, and Tate will be behind the wheel wearing his vintage Ray Bans. Exploring on our honeymoon will be an adventure!

Any help to get to and from our destination is a wonderful gift. We will be thanking you long after take off.

We will experience the special indulgence of a couple's massage lying side-by-side being pampered with exotic oils that hydrate the skin, rejuvenate senses, and leave us refreshed and revitalized. We want to reserve our spa treatments early for this ultimate spa experience!

Tate would like to surprise Chrissy with a secret gift on their honeymoon.

We often enjoy staying in private homes when traveling, and living like the locals do for a few days. It's a great and unique way to experience a vacation.

As aspiring oenophiles, or people who just like wine, we'll spend a day or two at our desired winery enjoying the entertaining and knowledgeable explanation of the winemaking process, followed by a tasting of some of the finest wines!

There are many ferries and private boats available to rent to travel to and from each of the cities dotting the Amalfi coast. For daytime excursions between towns, it's often easier to travel by boat--this gift will help us explore each coastal village by sea.

We’ll need a spa day just to ourselves! We will sit back, relax and indulge in a rejuvenating and revitalizing spa treatment or massage to help soothe our tense muscles and to help us get back in the groove.
