Stephanie & Tim

With your wonderful gift we'll spend a night on the town, dance, laugh, and let loose wherever we desire.

We are so excited to go snorkeling on our honeymoon, floating through the cool blue water as we swim eye to eye with exotic marine life. Paradise found!

As you may know, Tim and I will be spending some time at home with friends and family before heading out on our cruise. We have made some plans and are planning to see a Broadway show during the week!

Mmmm... all you can eat homemade pasta! Becco is one of Stephanie's favorite restaurants in the city and just happens to be conveniently located near Broadway - making it the perfect spot for a pre-theater dinner when we go to see Wicked!

Tom Moore's Tavern is Bermuda's "oldest eating house" and would be a lovely spot for a special dinner to celebrate.

Our Royal Caribbean International honeymoon cruise promises us the ultimate indulgence with their extensive Wine Cellar Collection. With over 50 bottles of champagne and wine from around the world, we will choose from full bodied reds, buttery whites, delicate blushes, sparkling champagnes, and alcohol free wines and champagnes. Thanks to you we will enjoy this gift at dinner or have it delivered to our stateroom for a relaxing evening.

We will enjoy an intimate Italian dinner in the romantic Portofino Restaurant. As we sail to our next destination, we will indulge in Italian classics and the chef's newly inspired creations while taking in the stunning views of the ocean.

Although we'll go on a few excursions we want to leave plenty of time to explore the many beaches in Bermuda... and we'll need all the accessories, including snorkel masks and fins, to do it!

Although Tim and I truly do not need to fit more stuff into our soon-to-be combined homes, that won't necessarily stop us from picking up some souvenirs on our trip. Who knows what wonderful things we'll find in Bermuda that we simply can't live without? :)

This camera will allow us to capture even the most elusive marine life. This is the perfect gift for us - the warm water tropical travelers.

Ok, so it's not a boat... but the Bermuda transportation pass will allow us unlimited access to the various public transportation options to get around the islands... since tourists are not allowed to rent cars!

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!

While I realize home renovation doesn't exactly sound like an activity for a honeymoon, the reality is Tim actually likes doing it and we still have a ton of work on both houses... We're planning to re-finish the basement in my house and put in a second bathroom, and we are finally about to have not one but two new bathrooms at Tim's! Say good-bye to the wrench! We're mostly doing it ourselves (read: Stephanie picks stuff out and Tim does the work) so we have multiple trips to Lowe's and Home Depot in our future...

From the excellent service at the hotel to the attentive waiters at dinner, there's going to be a long list of people to thank for helping us have the perfect time away from home.

What better way to remember the amazing time we had on our honeymoon than with pictures taken by the professional photographer onboard our Royal Caribbean International cruise. We'll choose our favorites so we can look back on our incredible honeymoon cruise for years to come!

While having an amazing time on our honeymoon we would love to keep in touch with our friends and family back at home. With your generous gift we will be able to let everyone know the highlights of our days onboard and the exciting adventures we will be experiencing!

So maybe it seems odd that we haven't even gone on our honeymoon yet and we're already talking about our next trip... but Stephanie does like to plan, especially when it comes to picking out the next vacation! We don't know where it will be yet - sadly Egypt seems off the table for now, but who knows? Maybe somewhere tropical, exotic, or even Vancouver in the summer... supposedly the weather is much better than in the winter :)
