Registry

Both Alyssa and Timur have been fortunate enough to have all they need to be happy. We know that many of you have to travel far to be present at our wedding. Being surrounded by our friends and family on this occasion is the best present we could ask for and don't expect any other gifts!

Nevertheless, if you'd like to make a contribution in our honor, please consider one of the charities below -- or one of your choice.
