If you are stumped for the perfect and unbelievably unique gift for your significant other? You must check out Make Love Locks for this special gift idea.....it is perfect for any occasion: A wedding, anniversary, Valentine's or Sweetest Day, Christmas or just because (that is the best occasion). 


Cologne, Germany and The Rhine River

I seriously cannot tell you how excited I was to find Make Love Locks and here's why: My husband is from Cologne, Germany. Last time we were in Cologne in the summer of 2012 we were walking on a bridge across The Rhine River and my brother-in-law showed us his and his wife's "love lock." 

One of the bridges crossing The Rhine River in Cologne, Germany

The chain link fence that runs on the side of the bridge is covered with them. The love locks have become a worldwide tradition and symbolizes everlasting and unbreakable love. The couple locks their love lock onto the bridge and throws the key into the river. How romantic is that? Both my husband and I said we had to do that next time we go to Germany. 

Fast forward to now.....my husband and I are celebrating our anniversary on December 13. We will  have been married 17 years. I wanted something special and unique for a gift and I remembered the love locks. I searched local stores for padlocks to get engraved but I didn't like any of them. I searched online and found Make Love Locks! Talk about being blown away by this site! They have a huge selection of different sized locks, tons of color, font and image choices and best of all.....they had a graphic of my husband's hometown showing the famous St. Martin's Cathedral and the "Dom" Cathedral in Cologne - these are two famous skyline symbols for Germany and Cologne.

Our Love Lock

My daughter was in on this secret because I had to tell someone about this awesome gift idea - I even included her name and birthday on the reverse side because she is a part of us and our union. My husband hasn't seen this as of this review posting and I am hoping this is the one time he isn't looking at my blog (Hi honey!) because I am hoping to surprise him with it on December 13th....Wish me Luck with that! Now we just need to plan our next trip to Germany to visit my husband's family and lock our love lock on the bridge and throw away the key! STOP right there......Love Locks are not just for when you are traveling abroad (we are only doing it because it is a meaningful location to us) - there are TONS of places across the United States that have very public love locks displays or you could lock your love lock on the fence of your forever house and throw away the key!! The possibilities are endless!

If you are looking for a unique and special gift for your loved one - stop right here and check out Make Love Locks website! It is easy to navigate and you can design your own love lock right before your eyes with ease! Shipping is very prompt - I had mine in days! This is a timeless gift that is perfect!
