We are so fortunate for the things we already have: each other, our wonderful families, and supportive friends. While all we truly ask for is your presence with us on our special day, we would be honored if you choose to make a charitable donation in our name in lieu of gifts. Please see our registry at JustGive.org. While we feel this organization is providing a great service, we do want you to be aware that they will add a $5 fee to your total donation to cover administrative costs. If you are uncomfortable with that, please feel free to make your donation directly to any of our charities instead. You should be able to find links to their individual web pages from our registry. JustGive.org will automatically notify us of your gift, but the individual charities may not be set up to do so, or may not be able to in a timely manner. If you prefer making your donation directly to one of our charities, please be sure to tell us about it, or we may never know of your generosity!

We understand that many people prefer the idea of giving more traditional wedding gifts, so we have also registered at the following locations:

Crate and Barrel, registry number 9824073
Bed, Bath & Beyond, registry number 2154297

Joy (Helena's mom) gave us her china, which we LOVE, but we're missing a few pieces. It’s made by Noritake and is called Derry (pattern 5931). Unfortunately the pattern has been discontinued, but we did find some replacements online, so we have set up a registry with Amazon.com.
