Gift Suggestions

As always your presence is the more than enough for us but if you would like to get us a gift we have some ways you can contribute below.

Registry

As some of you know we have recently just bought our first house together and will hopefully be moving in two weeks before the wedding. We have most of the essentials but there are a few things we would like to get to make our house a home. We have had a few requests for a registry so here is a list of items we are planning to buy/would like.
