Johanna and Marc
Hej & Hello Family & Friends, We have made a sweet home together with all of the necessities and comforts, so instead of a traditional registry we've set up this honeymoon registry so you can help us on our way to a beautiful summer honeymoon in France. We plan to start in Paris, strolling those insanely romantic streets, sitting in lots of cafés and having picnics by the Seine. We're planning a few jaunts into Champagne and wine country before getting lost in Provence, the Camargue and the Côte d'Azur. We are truly grateful for contribution to our honeymoon. You can choose one or more things from the list below, and we will raise a glass in your honor! We had to do this in dollars, but have converted all the amounts to Kronor for you Swedes. Love & Puss och Kram, Johanna and Marc
