Honeymoon Fund

To Our Guests

When thinking of a gift for us,&nbsp; We ask if you'd please consider,&nbsp; Contributing to our honeymoon,&nbsp; To make it all the sweeter.&nbsp; Our house is full of all the things,&nbsp; A couple could require,&nbsp; And so a holiday away,&nbsp; Is what we most desire.&nbsp;

Then while we're relaxing on the beach,&nbsp; Or by the pool so blue, We'll sit back and know that,&nbsp; It is truly thanks to you!

However&nbsp;if you prefer to buy&nbsp; us&nbsp;a gift,&nbsp; We are happy with whatever you choose!
