We will value your presence more than any wedding gift.

However, if you are compelled to give, we want your gifts to go towards a greater cause. In lieu of traditional wedding gifts, we ask that you take time to donate to one (or more!) of our favorite charities in your own name.

If you prefer to donate to one of your own favorite charities or if you need time to think about your donation, please don't feel any pressure! Your presence at our wedding will be the only present that we will ask from you.

P.S. Because a few of you have asked: We do not ask that you donate a minimum amount; donate whatever makes you feel comfortable. And of course, we will never ask you for "proof" of your donation.
