Our registry lies within the enchanted vaults of Amazon, accessible through the sacred portal https://www.amazon.com/wedding/registry/2RZNDRZXIOWXE
Do you accept gold coins, magic relics, or alternative gifts?
We are deeply grateful for any offerings bestowed upon us! In addition to our registry, we are also accepting contributions to our honeymoon fund via Venmo ($brianna-carsen). A treasury chest shall be available at the event for those who wish to bestow gifts in person.
Is my presence enough, or do you truly reqiure a tribute?
Though gifts are always cherished, the greatest treasure is celebrating with you! Your presence, laughter, and joy are the most priceless gifts of all.
RSVP & Attendance
When is the deadline to accept this noble invitation?
We request all esteemed guests RSVP by September 1st, so we may adequately prepare for the gathering.
Can I bring a traveling companion (plus-one)?

What if I can't make the journey?
Though we shall greatly miss your company, we understand that some may not be able to embark on this quest. Rest assured, no knights shall be dispatched to summon you from your keep… this time. 😉
