We just fulfilled our dream of becoming homeowners and returned back to our roots in Long Beach! But now it's time to furnish the place. Every little bit helps...and we promise to invite you over!

Help us remember our wedding for years to come with a high-quality photo album!

Not sure what to get? Just want us to pick something out ourselves or put it towards something special?

Did you know there is great dive spots in Croatia? We didn't - but now we do! A wreck or cave dive would be awesome. Tim may not be certified by then so in that case, we'll do a cave snorkel :).

Libations to toast our time in paradise.

Treat us to an outdoor candlelit couples massage at the Hvar Adriana Spa hotel. Savor the moment of a luxurious massage side by side on our spa terrace overlooking the sea. Benefit from the light, sounds and pure air of Hvar. http://www.suncanihvar.com/adriana-hvar-spa-hotel/sensori-spa.html

We're booked on a 4-hour bus ride from Dubrovnik to Hvar...want to get us there in style? Upgrade us to a private car so we can stop and wine taste along the way! We'd be forever grateful. :)

Come join us in our backyard and relax in the hammock! Color: Spring Bay Stripe Also available on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00862B1MK/ref=twister_B00AASOT1I

The key to a happy marriage? A good night's rest when you can get it! Feel free to help us upgrade to a new Sleep Number bed for our bad backs. What's your number?!

As new homeowners, there will be a lot of time spent getting comfortable in our home. Help get us out of the house for a dinner, movie, night out in LA, or wherever you think we should go - we'd love to hear what YOUR favorite date nights are!

In a year, we'll look back on our wedding with fond memories! Help us celebrate with a weekend getaway to celebrate one year of wedded bliss!

We'd love to take in the ocean breezes every morning...in Dubrovnik and Hvar

We plan on spending a few days relaxing in luxury on the Island of Hvar, the sunniest spot in all of Europe!

Help us get to Croatia!

The more we've researched Croatia, the more excited we are to visit Plitvice Lakes - it might look straight out of the movies but it's real!

The cable car over Dubrovnik seems like the perfect way to grab some great views of the city and the surrounding coast. From the top you can see up to 37 miles while taking in the entire city, the surrounding coast, and the wonderful fresh air.

We love walking tours - such a great way to see a new city and get some exercise so you can indulge in the local cuisine! A walking tour of the Old City starting from Pile Gate will take us to its elegant main street and its most important sights: Franciscan Monastery, Onofrio`s Fountains, Sponza Palace, Orlando`s Column, City Bell Tower, Church of St Blaise, the city’s patron saint, Rector’s Palace, the seat of the Republic and the Cathedral.

Doesn't this sound amazing? There is no better way to experience Dubrovnik! Board your sea kayak and set out into the clear blue Adriatic Sea. Paddle along the magnificent Dubrovnik City Walls, getting a close-up view of this UNESCO listed wonder, have a swim in one of the secluded caves and simply enjoy being at one with nature. An unforgettable experience and a lovely way to spend a morning or afternoon.

We're hoping we can find a way to rent our own dinghy for the day and privately explore the beautiful waters among a few of Croatia's 1000 Dalmatian islands during our time in Hvar.

The island of Vis is one of the most remote of all Adriatic islands. After a pleasant sail we will arrive to the islet of Bisevo, highlighted by the Blue Cave. The cave is a natural phenomenon which can be entered only by small fishermen's boats. The cave itself is quite spacious and offers an unforgettable experience, especially the light effect created by the sun reflecting in the cave through the sea. We continue to Komiza, whose inhabitants are believed to be the best fishermen on the Adriatic. We will visit the Fishermen's museum located in a fortified building from the 16th century. After the visit enjoy some free time for strolling around or maybe a swim.

We would LOVE to book a pontoon at the Bonj 'les bains' Beach Club - doesn't it seem like it's made for a honeymoon?!? Included for the day is a baldachin – a canopy day bed – sunbeds, an umbrella, towels, our own private stone cabana (a changing area with bi-folding doors and a couch if a break from the sun was needed) and wi-fi (we'll email you a postcard!). The ultimate luxury if we can swing it!!

For the ultimate Dubrovnik experience pay a visit to Restaurant & Lounge 360°. Set within the great walls of Dubrovnik itself, overlooking the port with stunning views and stylish atmosphere, our creatively presented food, stylish lounge bar, extraordinary wine cellar, top service and first class ambience will leave you and your honorable guests simply amazed. http://360dubrovnik.com/index.php

Sample the foods and wines of South Dalmatia and the Pelješac Peninsula on a 9-hour gourmet lovers tour from Dubrovnik. Meet friendly wine producers at local wineries, and cruise to the oyster farms of the picturesque Little Ston Bay.

Coffee is popular and always a welcome reason to take a break. Croatia, Montenegro and Bosnia-Herzegovina all have lively cafe scenes. The cafes are for drinking coffee, local wine, beer or spirits. Multiple daily coffee breaks are not unusual in Croatia.

We can't wait to start our herb garden in a real backyard! Help us keep track of our herbs with these adorable markers.

Everything we'd need for a picnic in the park!

Nothing is better than coming home to fresh flowers. Keep our home bright with blooms that will keep us remembering the great times we've spent with you!

Our new home has beautiful wood accents throughout - we thought these frames were perfect ways to tie in the home with our memories.

We'd love to start camping more - isn't this table perfect for a night in the woods (or even tailgating at USC!)

We'd love to have fresh veggies from local farms shipped to our door - it will keep us healthy and happy in our first year of marriage!
