A lot of people have been asking me what to get us! And it’s been a bit awkward answering  each  time, haha! So here I will put some guidance for you.

Since we started dating, we have been showering each other with gifts. So much so, that by now we have absolutely every material good we could ever want or even think of. (✓ roomba, ✓ electric orange press, ✓ towels with embroided names, ✓ fancy stoneware  plates that are so heavy they’re too inconvenient for everyday use) At this point, we have had quite enough of material consumerism and would like to start looking ahead.

Specifically, we are working toward saving money to have enough of a financial cushion to be able to expand our family in some years time. And ideally, to be able to buy a little housey in the green somewhere for this expansion (and us) at one point. ♡  

For this reason, if you would like to bestow something upon us, we would appreciate your contribution toward our savings.

(Since some have asked me how exactly to do this:) In my culture, it is customary to put the desired amount of cash inside a card and inside an envelope. At specific points during the wedding (start, dinner), you will see a box which will invite you to leave your gift there. (If you don’t do paper money – or are visiting from abroad and don’t have EUR/CHF handy – you can also transfer something to us via bank transfer. The details are as follows: 

Bank: UBS
IBAN: CH35 0020 2202 1343 1740 Q
Address: Giessenstrasse 21, 8600 Dübendorf
Name: Samuele Ambrosini

Your card can also double as guest book entry, as we have opted against using a guest book on the day. Instead, we will retain the cards as memory of your visit. I have always been very fond of the cards I receive and have kept all since 2015. You can write as little or much as you want, don’t worry. „Congrats“ works. A cute design will make me smile.

By  the way: our plush family is very much complete (for now). I am having a very hard time finding homes for our already existing plushies. And Sam says we can’t get a bigger bed or bigger  house at the moment. (Even if it breaks my heart to say  this:) please don’t get us any plushies – i.e., alpacalis, teddies, sheepies,… They will be very welcome again once we expand the human family (in some years).
