Honeymoon Registry for Tara and Amjad

Tara and Amjad

Hi Everyone! First off, we'd like to say that your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift we could ask for. The time, effort and expense of traveling to be with us is something we deeply appreciate, and we are so thrilled that we will be able to celebrate this happy occasion with you. We have been blessed to have a lot of the essential home items that a newly engaged couple needs, and because we will be moving several times in the near future, we currently have nowhere to put our possessions other than in storage! Therefore, we hope you find this registry as a way to help us make our perfect honeymoon come true! Amjad and I are very much looking forward to our first real adventure together as husband and wife. Depending on Amjad receiving his visas, we hope to visit Italy (Amjad's childhood home), Switzerland, France, and Ireland (where Tara was born and spent summers with her family). It is because of the lifetime memories we will gain from this trip that we finally settled on a honeymoon registry. We greatly appreciate and will fondly remember these gifts for years to come. We'll do our best to document our honeymoon and include some fantastic photos in your much-deserved thank you note. Thanks again and we can't wait to see you at the wedding (or earlier!). Love, Amjad & Tara (P.S. Scroll to the bottom of the page for a few, more traditional, gift ideas if you prefer.) مرحبا للجميع أولا نود القول ان وجودكم في عرسنا هو أحسن هدية لنا. فنحن نثمن كثيرا الوقت والجهد ومصاريف التنقل لتكونوا معنا، ومتحمسون جدا للاحتفال بهذه المناسبة السعيدة معكم. نحمد الله على امتلاكنا لمعظم الأغراض المنزلية التي يحتاجها العرسان الجدد. وفي المستقبل القريب، سننتقل من مكان لآخر عدة مرات قبل الاستقرار، مما سيضطرنا الى وضع ممتلكاتنا في مخازن مؤجرة. لذلك نتمنى ان تجدوا في هذه القائمة طريقة لتحويل حلم شهر العسل المثالي الى حقيقة! أمجد وانا نتطلع بحماس لمغامرتنا الأولى معا كزوج وزوجة. وحال حصول أمجد على التأشيرات المطلوبة، ننوي زيارة إيطاليا (حيث كان يسكن أمجد في طفولته) وسويسرا وفرنسا وايرلندا (حيث ولدت تارا وقضت مواسم الصيف مع عائلتها). إن شهر العسل هذا كفيل بخلق ذكريات جميلة تكفينا طول العمر ما دفعنا لعمل هذه القائمة. نحن نقدر هذه الهدايا ونعتز بالذكريات المصاحبة لها للسنوات القادمة. سنعمل ما باستطاعتنا لتوثيق شهر العسل بالصور وسنرفق بعض هذه الصور مع بطاقات شكرنا الجزيل لكم. نشكركم مرة أخرى ونلتقيكم في العرس إن شاء الله. مع فائق الاحترام، أمجد وتارا ملاحظة - عند شرائك للهدية سيكون هناك خياران للدفع:- الأول بحساب PayPal الذي لا ننصح باستخدامه للعراقيين والعرب لأنه يتطلب فتح حساب والى اخره. اما الخيار الثاني فأسهل وهو باختيار الهدية والضغظ على زر الخيار الثاني عند الدفع وأخيرا إحضار ثمن الهدية نقدا او بصك عند العرس.

Airplane Tickets! تذاكر الطيران
