Update from Albert: I distinctly remember not being able to afford things on people’s registries when I was younger. They would put crazy things up and I would be stuck thinking, geez, I can buy a couple of spoons. For our registry, if you are planning on buying a gift, but can’t afford the item you want to get, you can simply buy a gift card with a portion of the gift on it. In your notes just tell us what it is for (we promise to use it to get it).
For all of our guests, especially those coming from out of town, we want to emphasize that your presence is all we need and ask for (and besides, we all know Albert already has two of every gadget imaginable – three if it is a fountain pen, a bow, or a racquet.)
If you would like to send a gift, other than yourself or an adorable child, please mail them to our friends Candace and Dave Hoagland at:
7806 Hayfield Road, Alexandria VA 22315
Since we are leaving on Sunday for Tokyo, we will not be able to easily transport any gifts with us, and our apartment in Alexandria does not hold any packages. Candace, Dave, Quentin, and Annabella have been gracious enough to let us keep some things there while we travel. (Thank you!)
To make the sending easier, we have registered at Amazon.com. Just enter a last name and wedding date and it should pop right up.
We have also included some items that we couldn’t find on Amazon on Bernard and Agnes’ wishlist. (Thank you, Bernard and Agnes!)
