Lacking fun activities in 2020 (besides wedding planning of course), we’ve spent a considerable amount of time renovating, painting, and furnishing our flat. Consequently, we’re blessed with all we could ask for in our home. So, if you would like to make a gift, click on the link below where you can view our full Honeymoon itinerary and make a contribution should you wish. Thank you.
Please note that the fund will close on the 15th of November.
