Debra & Tom

Many ancient culinary traditions and characteristics of Italy's distinct regional cuisines and traditional recipes are passed down from generation to generation. We will experience hands on instruction by our own professional Italian chef. It's true what they say, "Italians live to eat while the rest of the world eats to live."

A gondola ride is the quintessence of romantic Venice! We will enjoy a soothing journey along the canals and be captivated by the glamour and elegance of this true Italian honeymoon experience. We'll be taken to a spectacular water front Venetian restaurant to be wined and dined in style. Simply heaven!

On our romantic Italian honeymoon, we'll embrace Venice's rich history on this guided walk around St. Mark's Square! Afterwards we will tour some of the city's most famous historical landmarks including the gold-dotted St. Mark's Basilica, the Gothic Ducale Palace and the breathtaking Bridge of Sighs.

We will explore the quintessential wine region of Tuscany! We will learn about the history of the distinctive and historical wine making region of Italy while our expert guides will share their vast knowledge of wine, and more important, offer us a sampling of some of their favorites. Tuscany is not only famous for its wine but also its olive oil. We will taste some of the famous Crostini Toscano as we learn why extra virgin olive oil plays such an important role in Italian Cuisine.

We will tour through the fertile and picturesque Tuscan countryside towards the historic university city of Pisa. Together, we'll take the panoramic drive along the Arno embankments, visit the Piazza dei Miracoli famous for the celebrated Leaning Tower, and unequalled masterpieces of Romanesque art carried out between the 11th and 12th centuries. This will be a great honeymoon day!

With your wedding gift we will explore three of Venice's most fascinating islands, Murano, Burano, and Torcello by boat. This romantic honeymoon guided tour takes us to Murano's ancient glass-making factories, Burano's centuries-old lace-making houses and Torcello's Byzantine churches.

With your wedding gift we will reserve a night in our Honeymoon Suite and indulge in luxury that exceeds all of our expectations. Our honeymoon suite is not just romantic; it's spacious, comfortable, luxurious and very private. Thank you for Suite Memories!

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!

We’ll love a night just to ourselves! Indulging in the romantic ambiance, we’ll enjoy tantalizing cuisine at our favorite restaurant and make a toast to our lives together!

We would love to shop around for our favorite piece of art as a cherished keepsake from our once in a lifetime trip. This gift will adorn our home for many years to come!

We would like to select some Italian dinnerware, glassware and linens while we are in Italy as a special memory of our wedding and honeymoon.

It won't be like driving at home. Exploring on our honeymoon will be an adventure.

What a great wedding gift! On a scooter with the warm breezes blowing gently on our faces, we will enjoy a fun honeymoon day exploring our honeymoon destination.

Thank you for allowing us to pre-plan our trip. It all goes towards having the ultimate getaway made possible by your generous registry gift.

What a feeling! An aromatic exfoliate gel is applied to our bodies to refine the skin, and then oils and creams are added to moisturize and soften. Finally our bodies are wrapped to increase the warmth, completely relax us and set the mood for romance.

I will be pampered with a classic and gentle cleansing facial with wonderful aromatic ingredients, leaving my skin radiant and beautiful. No photos during the treatment allowed!

There is nothing like waking up to the sweet smell of flowers by our bedside. How romantic!

We'll enjoy a sensual aromatherapy massage engaging a combination of stimulating techniques and soothing aromas. This is perfect for our romantic honeymoon!

Communicating with the locals could come in very handy.

My nails have to look good to show off my beautiful wedding ring!

I will be pampered with a foot facial, foot cleansing, foot scrub, masque and moisturizing massage of lower legs and feet. This is a pure delight for my soles and soul!

We can plan to start our trip with a romantic flair! What better way than with the decadence of this unbeatable combination?

Tom needs all the lessons he can get!
