Absolutely!

Is there a gift registry?

There is the bank account Wishing Well above, as well as a physical Wishing Well at the venue if you would like to gift us.

Why is the name of your wedding website "Wicklow Wedding"?

Wicklow Road in Narrow Neck is special to us - it is where we first moved in together in 2024, and subsequently bought our first home across the road in 2025! Also we love alliteration.

If you have any questions that aren't covered here, please don't hesitate to reach out. We'd love to hear from you and will do our best to get back to you as soon as we can.
