While your "presence" is the greatest gift you can share with us, we also recognize that some may desire sharing "presents" with us, too. That said, we've registered at sites below and would also welcome those who choose to make a tax-free donation to the Equality NC Foundation in honor of "Julia and Michelle's Union."

While there are many rights and privileges that we are currently unable to share with our heterosexual married counterparts in this wonderful nation, our hope is that someday our family will be awarded the same rights and privileges that our parents' families have held.

Equality North Carolina refers to three non-profit corporations, Equality NC, Equality NC Foundation, and Equality NC PAC. One of their current initiatives involves the creation of community for equality for all families in North Carolina. For more info, go to: http://equalitync.org/news/marryforequality.

Other traditional guest registry information is also available below. However, as we've stated earlier, your "presence" is the greatest gift of all! Thanks again for celebrating with us in your own way! Warmly, Michelle & Julia
