Five Star Gift Ideas

For your friend who enjoys open water swimming, the perfect wedding gift could be something that combines their passion for swimming with their new chapter of married life. Here are a few meaningful and personal gift ideas:

1. Customized Swim Towel: Consider getting a luxurious and absorbent swim towel customized with your friend's initials, or their new last name and wedding date. They can use it during their swimming sessions, at the beach, or on their honeymoon. It will serve as a practical reminder of the love and support they have in their marriage.

2. Waterproof Fitness Tracker: Help your friend keep track of their swimming progress and stay motivated with a waterproof fitness tracker. This device will not only monitor their swimming distance but also track their heart rate, calories burned, and sleep quality. It's a practical and thoughtful gift that will help them take their open water swimming to the next level.

3. Open Water Swim Training: If your friend is looking to improve their open water swimming skills, consider gifting them a training course or a series of private lessons with a professional swim coach. This will not only provide them with guidance to become a stronger swimmer but also give them an opportunity to meet like-minded individuals and form new friendships.

4. Personalized Swimming Gear: There are various items that can be personalized with your friend's name or initials, such as swim caps, goggles, or swim fins. These customized accessories will make them stand out during their open water swimming adventures while adding a personal touch to their gear collection.

5. Adventure or Travel Experience: Another unique gift idea would be to plan an adventurous trip or a relaxing getaway to a beautiful destination known for its open water swimming spots. It could be a weekend escape to a nearby beach or an organized swim tour in an exotic location. This gift allows your friend and their spouse to create cherished memories together while indulging in their shared love for open water swimming.

6. Subscription to a Swimming Magazine: A gift that keeps on giving, a subscription to a swimming magazine focusing on open water swimming will provide your friend with inspiration, training tips, and stories from experienced swimmers. It will be a delightful surprise every time the magazine arrives, giving them something to look forward to and expand their knowledge of the sport.

Remember to bring a personal touch to your gift by including a heartfelt note or creating a scrapbook filled with pictures of your friend's swimming adventures. Your thoughtfulness and consideration will make the gift even more special and appreciated.

Or you can get her/him a star map with the date of the wedding.

“This was such a beautiful gift for my son and his wife for the day they married. My only problem was I left it in the cart where I tried to buy a frame and they never got to see it. I have to order another one, it was too perfect of a gift 🎁👍❤️”
