Welcome Family and Friends
We are fortunate to have most of the things we need, and your presence is the best gift to us. No need for presents! That said, if you do feel strongly about giving us a gift, we have put together a fun registry. At the very least, hopefully it makes you laugh. We can't wait to celebrate with you!

Ice Cream in New Zealand (might be the best gift on here)
Buy us a NZD$7 Real Fruit Ice cream! If you've never had one, it's pretty much worth the airfare. They take ice cream and berries of your choice and force it through a soft serve machine.
-
Year of Beer with the Boys - Apologies in advance to Kelly, John, Skip and Betsy...
Send Marc for a "Beer with the Boys" once a month for a year. As kids, these boys put a pool on a roof, mowed a willy into a lawn, and pulled Rem out a window on a bed. As adults, nothing has changed.
-
A Real NZ Doughnut ("en-zedd")
Buy us a Fresh Cream Doughnut in New Zealand! Fried doughnut filled with fresh cream and raspberry jam. An absolutely iconic, low-fat, low-calorie, snack. 10/10 recommend. One each!
-
Save Our Relationship with Peanut Butter (Yep. We said that)
Someone (not naming names here Marc) eats peanut butter off a spoon until the jar is empty. Someone else can never find peanut butter when she wants it. Start us off on the right foot with TWO jars.
-
In-Flight Headphones (the janky ones in a plastic bag)
Gift us those funny headphones they give you on the plane that don’t fit and make announcements deafen you while the movie is unintelligible. Thank you for this fun gift towards return flights to NZ!
-
Airsick Bag (At least it has a sense of humour!)
A registry classic! JK. But really, if you’re gifting us flights to NZ, why not add all the bells and whistles?! We’ll try not to use it. Thank you for helping send us to New Zealand!
-
In-Flight Safety Briefing (Okaaay, we’ll pay attention)
Gift us a safety briefing video on an Air New Zealand flight. To get to NZ and back, we’ll have to watch six. They’re pretty funny. Look them up! You’re basically buying us a movie ticket...
-
An In-Flight Movie or 10 (13 hour flight)
Gift us a movie (or a marathon) towards our next flight to New Zealand. Will happily take recommendations! And here’s one for you: Hunt for the Wilderpeople. A Kiwi classic must watch.
-
Poker Buy In (full disclosure: we're terrible at it)
The Mazama gambling scene is a high-stakes environment. A group of local degenerates gather at Liberty Lane a handful of nights a year for a wild game where no one knows the rules. $10 buy in.
-
Trivia Night + a Drink
Trivia in Winthrop is a hotly contested night of fun facts and rivalry. With teams fighting to draft brains like Bryan and Rick's, we're defending champions next time. Sponsor team Stihl Stuuhpid.
-
A Line Dancing Lesson - One of us may not thank you for this...
Line dancing with Balsamroot Boots in the redneck Methow Valley. We've been once, and we were terrible at it. Tamsin 10/10 would try again. Marc 5/10 will try it again for Tamsin.
-
Wine of the Month - From the Mazama Store
The Mazama Store curates a wonderful collection of wines. With this gift we'll try a new bottle every month and send you our incredibly astute (not really) tasting notes and a slightly tipsy photo.
-
Inflight Pillow/Blanket (plastic wrapped of course)
A traditional wedding gift of bedding… for a flight to New Zealand! This plastic-wrapped pillow and blanket will support our restful (broken) sleep aboard a comfortable (nope) long-haul flight to NZ.
-
Make us run 60 miles along the PCT to Canada (Disclaimer: we WILL die)
We've talked about running the PCT to Canada and back, but we've never done it. Send us out with dehydrated food and a pile of gels to pack with our sleeping bags. Almost hoping no one gifts us this..
-
Build Drawers for Tam (and Marc too, but one of us is better at putting away laundry)
Finally install the set of drawers Tamsin's been dreaming of under the hanging clothes in our wardrobe. We'll build them, but your gift of drawer slides and lumber will pressure us to get them done!
-
Jerry-Rig Our Sauna (Then come use it with us!)
We've been slowly collecting used materials to build ourselves a franken-sauna. We have an old heater, some siding, a window, and a bunch of tile. Gift us the framing lumber and let's sauna!
-
Sign us up for our first Hockey Tournament together (Does this make us sponsored athletes?)
Marc's really good at hockey. Tamsin loves him a lot. So much that she's trying hockey too... with mixed results. Sign us up for our first tournament together at Winthrop Rink.
-
Round Trip Air Fare to New Zealand (or "Nu Zillund" as the locals say!)
"New Zealand, ooh-na-na. Half my heart is in New Zealand ooh-na-na..." But really. We're hoping to make it home to Aotearoa every couple of years. Send us there cattle-class. Or better yet, come too!
-
Inflight Meal on AirNZ (we’ll send you a postcard!)
Buy us dinner (or tea as it’s called in NZ) on the plane to New Zealand. The meal itself we might not be thrilled about… but the gift of helping us get Down Under and back is incredible. Cheers Mate!
-
Save Our Neighbors - Gift us blinds
In true Mazama-style, we don't have curtains. The LeDuc boys are kind of infamous for cooking in their boxers. Save our neighbors and help us install the blinds we keep saying we'll order but never do
-
Install Baseboards in Our Home (better yet, come stay and let's do it together!)
They say a builder's home is never finished. Ours isn't either. Holes in the walls give a place character! But if you're a perfectionist, feel free to gift us baseboards, and trim, and plaster, and...
-
Built-In Dining Bench - Will accept offers of skilled help!
We currently only have three dining chairs. Works great as long as guests are happy eating on the floor in the living room. Improve our table manners by gifting us the material to build a bench!
-
Build Us Bedside Tables
Well, we'll build them, but you're really the catalyst! We have a pile of water bottles and phone chargers that doesn't work at all. Buy us some drawer slides and a bit of lumber. Will send pics!
-
Year of Date Nights trying Local Eateries - Includes a texted review + Marchelin star rating
Our date nights are usually cooking out of the car boot at Harts Pass. But if you feel like encouraging us to get dressed up, we will happily try some of the new eateries in Winthrop and Twisp!
-
Install Lights in Our Bedroom (+100 increase in HP)
Our quaint bedroom is up a ladder in an open loft. It keeps us young! To make things adventurous, we also don't have lights yet. Gifting us lights would make the midnight bathroom runs way more boring
-
Sign us up for the 2027 Cutthroat Classic (Disclaimer: we may die)
The Cutthroat Classic is an 11-mile mountain race. Did you know our first two dates were running? After that we had sufficiently impressed one another, so we have thankfully almost never run again...
-
Year of Cleaning Services (will officially render our home the cleanest it's ever been)
We already feel slammed with work in the summers, but we're hoping it will only get worse if we get to start a family. Gifting us a year of house cleaning services will definitely lighten the load!
-
Fix Up the Truck (for the millionth time)
Marc got Toy 9 years ago, rebuilt the engine in 2018, and in 2020 the truck apparently got COVID too and died. Marc wants one last chance to fix this expensive driveway ornament before Tam gives up!
-
Honeymoon Fund - Rick, Missy and Roger want to come too...
In 2024, Rick and Missy took us to a remote lodge in the Eagle Cap Wilderness. Our dream honeymoon is to return for 2 nights this summer. Log cabins, no wifi, no service, and incredible meals. Minam!
-
Wedding Fun! Text us your song requests!
Add your wild to our wedding. Want two backstreet boys songs? Want to see everyone line dance together? Tamsin wants those things too. But really, thank you for helping fund our wild wedding.
Gift Any Amount
Life as 'The LeDucs'
If you would like to gift in any other way towards the wedding, the house, or the family we hope is in our future, you may do so here. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
