Hello friends,

This is the gift register for our wedding. They are all things we could use in our new life together.

If you purchase a gift, please note it by commenting on the post in which it appears. That way, others know the gift is taken. We will not look at the blog from now until after the wedding, so don't worry about secrecy.

Please also be sure to check the comments to make sure a gift is still free before purchasing it.

If you don't have a google account and don't want to get one, you can post comments using this log in

Hello friends,

Sorry to everyone for not posting the gift register earlier. It will be up in the next couple of days.

Hello friends,

This is the gift register for our wedding. What I am going to do is post a list of gifts that Yi-Shen and I could use in our new life together. Then when someone has purchased one of these gifts, they can post the fact here in a comment so that others do not purchase the same gift.

Yi-Shen and I will not look at this blog until after the wedding, so it will be mainly up to you guys to keep track of what gifts are still available and which are purchased by scanning the comments. If the string of comments is getting too long, I may get one of our parents to collate an updated list in a new post. Please always comment on the most recent post, or we will lose the news of your gift!

I am really looking forward to seeing you all at our wedding. Thank you for all your generosity, past, present and future.

Love to everyone
Aidan
