We’ve just waded through the two biggest months for weddings, which means we just completed the two months in which you’d most likely to purchase a wedding present, which makes this post a little late to the party, but better late than never!

For one of my best friend’s wedding, I wanted to select a gift that wasn’t from her registry and was personal. She did this for me, and I love what she selected for me. (No offense to registry gifts, they are totally fabulous, but in this case, I wanted something different.)

I saw a design from etsy seller lala Design Studio on pinterest, and was immediately reminded of a necklace my friend wore throughout college. After consulting with our mutual friend (and fellow bridesmaid), I selected the two lovers custom necklace.

Gorgeous, no?

I am super, super impressed with this piece. I opened the box to check it out before I wrapped it and have decided I need one for myself. And, there are lots of great occasions to give a gift like this: Valentine’s Day, an anniversary, to a newly engaged friend, etc. My personal favorite part of this gift is that it’s small. My friend is still in law school, and her now-husband has been telling her they won’t be able to take all their wedding gifts back to school with them. Since this is so small, it’s definitely going to school with them!
