Melynda & Patrick

With your wonderful gift we'll spend a night on the town, dance, laugh, and let loose wherever we desire.

With your wedding gift we'll spend a night out at a traditional Irish Pub, enjoying its rich musical heritage from ballads and sean-nos singers, to fiddlers and pipers. We'll sit back and listen to traditional Irish music, or "Trad Sessions," and spend an evening with the locals!

With your generous gift we will tour the Irish cathedrals.

On this tour we visit one of Ireland's quintessential attractions, the Blarney Castle in the County of Cork, where we get to kiss the Blarney Stone. As legend has it we could be granted the "gift of the gab."

We will take the tour to Loughcrew Cairns, also known as the Hills of the Witch. A group of Neolithic passage tombs dating back to 3000BC and the host to some of the most beautiful examples of Neolithic art in Ireland. Not only will we be rewarded by some of the most wonderful examples of Stone age cairns but also by some of the most stunning views in Ireland. A wonderful honeymoon tour!

At Northern Ireland's most famous landmark and World Heritage Site, we'll visit the Giants Causeway built by the legendary Finn MacCool, so he could fight another giant - or caused by lava flows 6 million years ago, you decide which to believe!

We'll go exploring, and tour one of the most famous and beautiful road circuits in the South West of Ireland, The Ring of Kerry. It traverses the Kerry coast from Kenmare to Killarney with many incredible sites along the way!

We'll get to sample on this tour some of Ireland's famous brands of whiskey - that's whiskey with an 'e' while visiting some of Irelands oldest distilleries.

We will spend the night in a real medieval castle. Surrounded by original pieces of furniture, family portraits, magnificent hallways, unique stairwells, and all the modern comforts of a luxury hotel and if we are really lucky a friendly ghost!

Your gift will fill our bellies with the finest cuisine at The Saddle Room located inside our hotel - The Shelbourne.

Your thoughtful gift will let us partake of a traditional Irish breakfast in our hotel - The Shelbourne - in the heart of Dublin.

What could be better than knowing we'll have breakfast to enjoy between the sheets? We'll order eggs florentine, cinnamon rolls, freshly squeezed orange juice and hot coffee which all seem to taste better served to us in bed!

No trip to Ireland is complete without a drop of the "black stuff" and where better to have it than at the Guinness Storehouse. After our tour around the brewery we'll have a pint or two in the Gravity Bar with stunning views across Dublin. Cheers!

We'll go back in time and dine medieval style with goblets, daggers, serving wenches, traditional Irish balladeers, and what night would not be complete without someone being thrown in the dungeon? A honeymoon evening of feasting and fun!

We look forward to reserving an intimate candlelit dinner. We'll choose a quiet restaurant with a warm atmosphere, outstanding cuisine and impeccable service.

With your gift we will enjoy a short boat ride to Pembroke Dock, Wales, to visit Grandpa Teddy and Grandma Dot Howells who can't come to celebrate our wedding with us in the states.

With your gift we will be able to travel by train to the southern part of Ireland to continue our romantic honeymoon. Or it will get us back to our hotel after too much fun at the Irish pub.

Any help to get to and from our destination is a wonderful gift. We will be thanking you long after take off.

We'll toast to our lives together as we uncork the effervescence of a bottle of champagne. Cheers!

A personal lockable honeymoon journal to record our most special memories. We will look back over the journal fondly in the years to come.
