RSVP for Guests Living Outside of the United States

Hello all!  We hope you have all received our invitations by now, along with the self-addressed return envelopes.  For those of you living in the United States, please note that the the return envelopes have already been pre-paid for you, so all you have to do is pop them in the mail! 

Unfortunately, for our friends and family living outside of the United States we were not able to pre-pay the return postage as we were informed by the post office that this was impossible to do for international return mail.  We would not like any of you to feel obligated to pay for the return RSVP postage, so if you wish you can send an email to either me or my mother with your response before April 1st.  For those of you who don't have it, my email is: mmarinow7@gmail.com and my mother's is: hmam12@verizon.net. 

We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this might cause, and we look forward to hearing from you all, and maybe seeing some of you, very soon!  And regardless if you can make it or not, please know that you will all be in our hearts and on our minds on June 4th, and we can all celebrate together whether you are near or far!

Wedding Registry Information- Updated!

We are very touched by the fact that many people have been asking us about sending us gifts for our wedding.  Although the greatest gift of all is having you in our lives and celebrating this special occasion with our loved ones (and we do not expect or ask for anything in return), for those of you who have asked about gifts, we have thought of the following options:

- Due to the international nature of our wedding, we will not be having a gift registry in the United States since it will very difficult to transport items to and from Spain.  Therefore, we have created one gift registry here in Spain at the department store called "El Corte Ingles."  This account will be available online starting March 6th, 2016 and will stay open until August 3rd, 2016. For those of you who would like use the El Corte Ingles registry, please visit the following website starting March 6th: https://www.elcorteingles.es/bodamas_ssl/invitados/celebrantes_acceso.asp?promo=01&idioma=010

Once you click on this link you will be prompted to search for our registry using either the bride or groom's name and surnames which would be one of the following:

Name: Melissa Ann      Surname(s): Marinow 

or 

Name: Eduardo            Surname(s): Mayas Sanz 

-However, since the El Corte Ingles registry`s currency for buying products is in Euros, we have thought of a different option for those guests wishing to send gifts in US Dollars. We kindly ask that anyone wishing to give gifts in US Dollars, please mail a check made out to Melissa Ann Marinow to my parent's home address in Sunset Beach California.  You may address the envelope to: 

Dr. & Mrs. Harry Marinow

P.O. Box 1480

Sunset Beach, CA

90742

We hope this information will be helpful to those who have been curious about gifts, and as we said before, the greatest gift of all is being able to share this special occasion with all of you, whether it be from near or far!

Happy New Year and Hotel Discount Update!

First and foremost, Edu and I would like to wish all of our dear family and friends and a very happy new year! We hope all of you had a wonderful holiday season, and that the new year is off to a great start for each and every one of you!

Now that we are officially in 2016, preparations for our special day are in full swing.... Which means we have some exciting updates for our guests. Specifically, regarding accommodation.  The Hotel Santo Domingo, where our reception will be held, has kindly created a promotional code for our guests to use when booking a room online. This code will provide our guests with a 20% discount off the regular market price of the room. 

To take advantage of this offer, please visit the hotel's webpage at: http://hotelsantodomingo.es/en 

Once you are on the home page, you will see a white box on the right side of the page. There, you can type in the check-in date and number of nights you would like to book a room. Under the number of nights box, there is an option to enter a promotional code, which is where you will enter our special wedding code: BOD16JUNSEB

After you enter the wedding code and click on the box "check rates and book," you can browse the various room options and available prices.

We hope this will be helpful to those of you wanting to stay at the reception hotel!

Edu and I will be back soon with more updates and information, and keep your eyes peeled for our invitations which will be sent out shortly!

As always, we wish everyone the very best and look forward to hopefully seeing some of you very soon!
