The Name Game

Although one could say I’m in the romance biz, I’m not all that much of a romantic. I’m not one to blush at the presentation of roses and I don’t get all giggly for candlelit and champagne dinners. And I certainly don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day, but when I heard about this new program by Seven Stars, Turks and Caicos, I found myself getting all mushy and gushy.

In addition to amazing, individualized service and memories to last a lifetime, honeymooners can get a special souvenir—a star named after you. How cool is that?! Here are the deets: Stay in any of the 120 ocean-view suites and let your personal concierge (side note: all the rooms come equipped with them) know you are blissfully enjoying your honeymoon. Then once you return home, you’ll receive a parchment certificate with the telescopic coordinates of your own special star.

Although I’m thinking about going to the Seven Stars just so I can get my own celestial being, gifting names in honor of honeymooners isn’t entirely new. The uber posh Le Meridien, Bora Bora offers sea turtle naming opportunities at their onsite sanctuary. Ditto for their property in Cancun. And at any of the US Federal Forests, you can have a tree named in your honor with a small donation.

It all sounds so romantic to me; I guess a zebra can change its stripes…

Wouldn’t it be the coolest to wish upon your own star?
