When you’re thinking about jewelry to wear during your destination wedding, honeymoon, or to celebrate your wedding anniversary, it can be extremely special to wear something that reminds you of these meaningful moments. If you are having a destination wedding like we did, and you’re looking for custom gift ideas, ‘Giving the Gift of Dune’ is a great way to say thank you to everyone playing a role in your special day, too!

My husband & I got engaged & married in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, and it’s a place we travel to at least once a year. When I discovered Dune Jewelry could make meaningful pieces using sand from Cabo San Lucas, I knew I had to get this wave necklace. It represents the waves from the Sea of Cortez & Pacific Ocean crashing onto the sand, which is the perfect reminder of one of the many things I love about Cabo. It’s a necklace I love to wear not only when we’re on vacation in Cabo, but also as a reminder of the special memories we have from our engagement, destination wedding, honeymoon, and anniversary trips in Cabo. 

Had I found out about Dune Jewelry before our wedding, I definitely would have incorporated Dune Jewelry into our wedding gifts. Jewelry custom made with sand from your destination wedding location would be the perfect gift to give to your maid of honor, bridesmaids, mother of the bride, & mother of the groom to wear on your special day! I love Dune Jewelry’s wedding gift options for men, too. Cabo is known for golf (and drinking cervezas), so I love this Golf Divot-Repair Tool/Bottle Opener as a gift for the father of the bride, father of the groom, best man, and groomsmen. These cufflinks would make a great gift for the groom, too! 

Sand and destination weddings go hand-in-hand, don’t you agree? I absolutely love my wave necklace made with Cabo sand – not only for the beautiful Dune Jewelry design – but for all the amazing Cabo memories that come along with it. I hope my sand story inspires you to find meaningful destination wedding jewelry and gifts for your loved ones!
