More on our wedding registry...

I'm afraid that the story about our fairly unremarkable wedding registry (in our eyes) just won't die. The latest article is Charity Begins At the Altar in the Chicago Tribune who even sent a photographer around to snap us in London last week. "It might seem that Alexander and Elliott, who fell in love while doing volunteer work in the West Bank, have a one-of-a-kind wedding registry, an altruistic gift list that does not include a single request for place settings or Tupperware. But statistics show they are just one couple among thousands leading a burgeoning, multimillion-dollar trend: using a ceremony that celebrates love as a way to help people caught in the grip of poverty."

UPDATE: Yet more coverage... the Chicago Tribune article has been syndicated around US local papers, usually on 21 July under the title "Giving Cupid a shot at Charity" in Belleville News-Democrat, IL, San Luis Obispo Tribune, CA, Monterey County Herald, CA, Myrtle Beach Sun News, SC, Duluth News Tribune, MN, Macon Telegraph, GA, Biloxi Sun Herald, The State, SC, Bradenton Herald, Kentucky.com, Contra Costa Times, CA, Centre Daily Times, PA, Grand Forks Herald, ND, Charlotte Observer, NC, Columbus Ledger-Enquirer, GA, Kansas City Star, MO, Wichita Eagle, KS... and probably elsewhere (as I didn't run this search until late August by which time Googlenews wasn't picking up articles before 21st July. It was also mentioned in the Christian Century on 8 August, and in the Victoria Advoacate, TX on 13 August.
