Wedding Registries

Let us start this posting by saying we don't expect any gifts from any of you. Just coming to our wedding is gift enough! If you can't make it to our wedding (Dylan and I have missed many important weddings of late because of finances)-- we understand.

If you would like to get us a gift, we do need many things. However, whatever we need does not compare to the needs of the anti-war movement! As many of you know, Dylan and and I volunteer much of our time to the Los Angeles branch of the A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism). Please consider making a donation in our name at their website:

ANSWER LA

Now, if you don't want to donate, then we are accepting presents. We are registered at (in order of importance):

Crate & Barrel

Macy's

Target

Amazon.com

Pillows&Throws.com

The greatest lamp of all time!

Thank you!

Hotel Reservations

There aren't really any hotels close to the actual wedding venue and since we are planning to have our house be the "headquarters" for all other wedding activities, we are encouraging all folks to stay at the Super 8 only about two blocks from our house.

Super 8 Motel - Los Angeles/Downtown
1341 W Sunset Blvd
Hwy 101 Exit Alvarado St
Los Angeles, CA 90026 US
Phone: 213-250-2233
Fax: 213-250-5067


I've checked out the hotel and I think it looks suitable. It seems quiet, clean, and has a few amenities, like hairdryers in the room, iron and ironing board, television, and air conditioning. With our group discount, it is $78 for a single and $83 for a double, per night.

TO MAKE A RESERVATION, YOU MUST DO IT THROUGH ME TO GET THE GROUP DISCOUNT. PLEASE CONTACT ME AT via e-mail or call me to let me know that you need a room. They will fill up, so please contact me as soon as you can. Also, there are no cancelations once the reservation has been made, so please confirm you travel arrangements before contacting.

********2/8/07: My cousin Ged found out that there is an even cheaper rate available if you have AAA! You can reserve the room yourself and it allows for cancelations.*********

If you don't want to stay with the majority of the wedding guests, making a reservation at any of the hotels downtown will be close to the action.

Of course, if you can't afford a place to stay, we will find some arrangement for you. We have plenty of room in our house and after that fills up, we have plenty of friends with couches. Let me know what you all are planning, and your flights so I can schedule airport pick-ups! Can't wait to see all of you!
