Thank you so much for the beautiful oak serving board! We can’t wait to use it during the many dinner parties you’ll be invited to this winter. Looking forward to celebrating with you at our wedding!

For a kitchen gift you received before your wedding

How did you know we were dreaming of those crystal champagne flutes?! They’re by far the most beautiful glasses in our home and we’ve never felt fancier. You’ll have to come over soon so we can toast to you! So excited to see you in June.

For drinkware you received before your wedding

We had a blast dancing the night away with you at our wedding. We also can’t thank you enough for the espresso maker. Our mornings have never been brighter! We can’t wait to see you in Austin next month… all caffeinated up!

For a coffee gift you received after your wedding

Where have you been hiding those killer dance moves? Thank you so much for rocking out at our wedding. And we absolutely love our new cast iron skillet and cookbook! We’re already cooking up a storm. Hope to see you soon in New York!

For cookware you received after your wedding

Thank you so much for the beer-brewing kit! We hope to be sipping backyard IPAs with you in no time. We missed you at the wedding, but know you were there in spirit. Can’t wait to see you when we’re back from our honeymoon!

Things To Do

| RESTAURANTS |

Do you love croissants? This is the closest you'll get to France from the west coast, we swear.

Petitgrain Boulangerie

No-frills seafood shack off PCH, a favorite of Jack and Thais'

Malibu Seafood Fresh Fish Market & Patio Cafe

Neighborhood staple - get the chicken sandwich + the carrot cake

R+D Kitchen

Thais & Jack's favorite breakfast spot on Montana Ave

Le Cafe de la Plage

Great oceanfront spot for drinks + a bite to eat in Venice

The Waterfront Venice

Milo & Olive

Ever on the hunt for the burger that surpasses that of In-N-Out, we think we found it

Heavy Handed

Great breakfast/lunch spot (also next door to the yoga studio where Thais teaches)!

Thyme Cafe & Market

Best tapas around - and great happy hour every day from 5-6:30pm!

Manchego

Felix has now become a standing date for Thais' birthday. Old Italian grandma recipes, pasta handmade in front of you, and pizza to die for (reservations recommended)

Felix Trattoria

| THINGS TO DO/SEE |

A welcoming studio in Santa Monica (and also where Thais currently teaches!)

Santa Monica Yoga

Believe it or not, October is peak beach time in LA. We recommend the beach at Ocean View Park, Bay St, or Will Rogers

BEACH DAY

Central street with restaurants & shops a block from the beach

Main Street Santa Monica

Malibu Pier

These guys got Thais and Jack comfortable in the water. Take a surf lesson or rent a surfboard/paddleboard/wetsuit

Kapowui Surf Lessons Santa Monica / Venice

Abbot Kinney Boulevard

Venice Beach Boardwalk & Skatepark

There's nothing we love more than a mid-week getaway (shout-out to non-traditional work schedules). You're coming all the way out here - might as well make a trip out of it! Here are some of our favorites:

| MAKE A TRIP OUT OF IT |

About 90 mins from LA! Check out our favorite spot, the Ojai Rancho Inn, or its sister property, The Capri Hotel

Ojai

Quirky little Danish town 90 mins north of LA in the Santa Ynez Valley - wine tasting galore!

Solvang

The place that needs no introduction - just 2 hours to gay retro heaven in the desert. Check out The Saguaro for a fun time, El Cactus for something quieter, or the Ace for the cool kids

Palm Springs

Go howl at the moon! About 2.5 hours from LA

Joshua Tree

We love a good Orange County coastal town. Honorable mentions for Laguna Beach & Oceanside. Depends on the traffic (!), but anywhere from 1-2 hours away
