Question

Why are there no/limited physical gifts on the registry?

Answer

Katherine and Earl will be moving to Japan! (predicted to be August 2025) Due to our major move, we are trying not to add too many extra physical items that we will have to pack up and send to Japan. There will be limited space and the potential for items to break in transit. There are different monetary fund options, but your presence is the best gift to us!

Question

Do you want to stay in Yosemite in the days following the wedding?

Answer

We will be Staying in Yosemite Valley Sunday night through Tuesday morning. Flexible Schedule: Sunday: Glacier Point & check into accommodations (we recommend booking a Curry Village Tent Cabin ASAP if you plan on staying in the Valley. Due to the limited availability, you will want to book this immediately. You are always able to cancel if you change your mind). Curry Village Sunday Night -buy yourself pizza at Curry and meet up with our group for dinner. Monday: Free choice - Take a Hike, you're in Yosemite! We highly recommend the Vernal Falls "Mist Trail" for those looking for a moderate hike, and Lower Yosemite Falls or Mirror Lake for those looking for a more leisurely stroll. Yosemite has so much to offer: see the sights, book a tram ride at the Yosemite Valley Lodge, rent a bike at Curry Village, or simply take the shuttle and explore all areas. Tuesday Morning: Coffee at Curry Village between 6-8am and say our goodbyes.
