In our preparations and discussions about what we "need," we decided that we have so much already, and just getting tons and tons of stuff would not fit with our value of living simply. However, we also know that many people might want to give gifts, and there are a few things that we can use. So, here are six options for gift giving:

1. Gifts to Charity-See our links section to see what charities we think would benefit from your gift. Please bring a check, made out to the organization you would like to support, and wrapped, to the reception.

2. From the Ground Up-We have registered with Michael Mahon, an Seagrove, NC potter, to make our dinnerware. You can call him at 910-464-6228 to place a order, or email him at mahanpots@rtmc.net. Click here to view the dinnerware.

3. Carnival Cruise Bucks-We are going to be crusin' for our honeymoon, and these cruise dollars will help us on the ship, and on excursions to shore. Call 1-800-906-7603 to order, our cruise ship is the "Paradise" and we sail on July 11th.

4. Linens-n-Things-Search under "Seltzer" under the Bridal Registry.

5. Cycles de ORO-Unprecedented! Help build two bikes by buying a piece of it(prices from $30). Go to Cycles de ORO at 1410 Mill St in Greensboro, or call 336-274-5959 and tell them you want to buy for Seltzer/Hensley.

6. Help your local craftsperson-Support local artists and business by buying a cool wine glass, mug, plate, pitcher, ladle rest, etc. from a local crafts person in your area. We like funky!
