Why a named star fits Long Distance
Long distance gifts should feel like a bridge across miles.
Symbolic permanence
A named star lasts forever, matching the depth of what long distance means to you.
Personal by design
You choose the name, dedication, and moment, so the gift feels one of a kind.
A moment you can revisit
With real coordinates, long distance can look up at the same star again and again.
Long Distance gifting problems a star solves
Common long distance gifts can feel routine or temporary. A star gives the moment a permanent, personal anchor.
- Distance makes it hard to send something meaningful and timely.
- Many gifts do not feel connected to your shared story.
- It can be hard to feel close when you are far apart.
