When it came time to register for items, we looked around and realized that between the two of us, we had 3 knife sets, tons of pots and pans, and every kitchen item known to man.  We had too much STUFF.

What we really wanted?  A honeymoon to create memories for a lifetime.  Japan is some place I've wanted to be since I was a child, and it was pretty high up on hubby's list too.  So that's what we registered for.  Funds towards airline tickets and Japan rail passes, guided hike up Mt. Fuji, formal tea ceremony.  Best thing?  Sumo wrestling tickets!!

For those that wanted to give actual items like his parents, they got us these amazing travel backpacks for our journey.

It was by far the best decision we made.  And the best part is?  Our honeymoon registry covered 100% of our trip.  So, we went on an amazing trip with zero debt.
