I GOT A CAR!

It’s been 3 and a half years since I owned a car, and I’m officially saying goodbye to my old ways of travel (the subway..mom’s car…Ubers) and hello to the brand new 2022 Hyundai Tucson! I’m in love with this thing and have been so excited to tell you about it. It’s truly the perfect little SUV for my current stage of life. I’m highlighting all my favorite features below & giving you a tour of the car…

EXTERIOR 

Hyundai questioned every detail to make the 2022 Tucson more stylish, comfortable, safe and intuitive. This thing is a total showstopper and gives you a sense of luxury without the outrageous price-tag.

Exterior features I love:

-The all white look and sleek futuristic design 

-The distinct LED headlights that blend into the grill and can only be seen when illuminated (SO cool in the dark)

-The prominent 3D grill featuring the blacked out Hyundai emblem

-The unique and angular wheel design

.

INTERIOR

This model is just as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside..

Interior features I love:

-The interior COLOR. I can’t get over the two-toned black and gray (it’s a really light gray). So chic!! Also available in all black.

-Dying over the extra large panoramic sunroof. If you watch my videos on Instagram today, you can see how well-lit and open this makes the car feel. 

-Remote start!

-Automatically lock and unlock the car by touching the handle

-Heated Steering Wheel and Seats 

-10.25 high-definition touchscreen display

-Reverse 360 camera

-Wireless charger and ‘catch-all’ compartment

-Apple CarPlay

-Large trunk that automatically opens when you’re within range with the key. You can also set the open height to four different levels (major for shorties!)

-Heated rear passenger seats that also recline and have plenty of legroom. 

-Remote smart park assist (watch my IG video to see it in action)

Feeling so grateful for this incredible car that’s going to be such a big part of the next chapter of our lives :,) I seriously couldn’t have picked anything better. If you’re like me and in a transitional stage in your life and looking for the perfect vehicle to navigate it all in.. look no further. This is the perfect car to start your new beginnings with and take with you on all our future adventures.

Over the last 8 years, I’ve lived in 5 different cities and transferred my belongings from boxes to storage units to apartments. I’m so thankful for all of those chapters, but there’s nothing I’m more excited for than the next one where I eventually move into a home with my soon to be husband!!

The Knot has made our registry process so fun and easy. I was able to add anything from the internet to our registry with the ‘add to the knot’ button – which is such a great feature. I loved reading through all of their most recent articles for tips and ideas for what to register for. We were also able to easily add our registry to our our wedding website with The Knot so guests could access it. I put this post together with everything we registered for to help you with yours!

3 Tips Before Your Register…

1. Register Early! We didn’t realize how early guests would start asking / checking our website to see what we had registered for. We found out a lot of people like to plan far in advance for gifts, so we got our registry up as soon as we could! It takes the guesswork out of gift buying for your guests. Don’t worry if you don’t complete it right away, you can always update it along the way.

2. Do It Together. Conner and I set up a night where we had dinner, wine, and made a list of everything we wanted to register for. It was so fun to do together and got us excited for the future 🙂 We found a lot of what we wanted online, but also took a trip to Crate and Barrel and Williams Sonoma to see things in person – which was really helpful.

3. Hit All The Price Points. Under $50, under $75, under $100, and beyond. That way all of your guests can choose what they want to spend. One thing I realized is sometimes people will go in on the higher priced items together!
