Is there a registry?
Given that we are asking our friends and family to fly out to Italy for our wedding (with only a few months notice!) ... your presence is a present enough. Thank you for joining us!
Are Andrei & Andrew the same person? (Xenia's version)
Yes.
Are Andrei & Andrew the same person? (Andrew's version)
Ok - so, explanation time: Many Russian immigrants choose what "American" name they want to use when speaking English. Those with the Russian name "Andrei/Andrey" typically choose, Andrei, Andrey, Andre or the Americanized Andrew.
Andrew chose Andrew (or maybe his parent's chose it), so when speaking in English he goes by Andrew. When speaking Russian, or when with his Russian friends, he goes by Andrei (with a rolled "r").
Long story short - feel free to say Andrew, or if you can roll your "r" say Andrei!
This all seems very sudden - is Xenia pregnant?
No. We're just in love & a little crazy :)
Can I bring my kids?
If your kids are not listed when you go to RSVP please message Xenia or Andrei - it's likely possible!
