Hello friends and family!

As you all know, we are non-traditional people. So, considering that fact, it should come as no surprise that we are also having a non-traditional wedding. Although the ceremony will be private with just us two, we do plan on visiting with everyone we love, either just before or right after. Well, pretty much everyone anywhere in Florida that is... Because we're planning the Great Floridian Road Trip!

Starting in Pensacola, we'll head down the panhandle and drive south to our first destination, Tampa. From there, we'll be sight-seeing down the coast and through the everglades (making a pit-stop in Miami to get hitched), and head on down to the keys (where anyone who wants to meet up with us is invited, by the way...). After a few days, we'll be heading back up on the Atlantic side of Florida, on our way to Jacksonville, before we finally head home to Pensacola... That's a long drive!

Since we already have a home and (almost) all the stuff we want, it makes more sense to offer anyone interested the option of donating directly to either support the big trip, or to a (much needed) home-improvement fund that we've been saving for. And of course, any donation would be GREATLY APPRECIATED but also TOTALLY OPTIONAL! More important will be the time we get to spend with all our friends and family, from Pensacola to Key West, to Jacksonville and back again! Thanks everyone! We can't wait till April!!
