Southeast Asia Honeymoon Fund
June 14, 2025
We mean it when we say that your presence is the greatest gift of all. However, should you wish to honor us with a gesture, we would be grateful for contributions to support our honeymoon adventure to Vietnam and the Philippines. This is entirely optional; your love is more than enough! A brief backstory on our honeymoon decision: Erin's dad always said he wanted to return to Vietnam, a country whose beauty he raved about despite only seeing it in the middle of a war. After his passing in January 2025, we decided to celebrate him by going on that trip for our honeymoon. Along the way, we'll stop to experience the natural beauty and wildlife of the Philippines, a place we had hoped to visit while we lived in Japan last summer but ran out of time. You can click on each registry item for a brief message from us about how it fits into our trip.
