Dear Friends and Family, As we prepare to embark on the adventure of a lifetime together, we are thrilled to share some exciting news with all of you! In lieu of a traditional wedding registry, we have decided to take a slightly unconventional route that better aligns with our dreams and aspirations for the future. Instead of asking for household items, we have set up a special fund to help us achieve two significant milestones in our journey: our dream honeymoon and the down payment for our future home. Your contribution to this fund will not only make these dreams a reality but will also create lasting memories that we will cherish forever. Our honeymoon will be to visit China, where we will have the incredible opportunity to see Hannah's family members that were not able to come to the US for the wedding, including her grandmother, uncles, aunts, and cousins. This will be Luke's first chance to meet them in person. This trip holds immense sentimental value for us, and your support will make it even more special. If you would like to participate in helping us achieve these goals, there are a few methods to contribute: 1. Venmo @LukeShackelford and the last four of my phone number to confirm is 4256 2. Cash or Checks can either be brought to the wedding or mailed to 701 Gray Ave. Durham, NC 27701 3. Bank Transfer: Please reach out to us for bank information. We want to express our heartfelt gratitude for your love, support, and presence in our lives. Your generosity means the world to us, and we cannot wait to celebrate this joyous occasion with each and every one of you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being a part of our love story. With love and gratitude, Luke and Hannah
