Every destination has “the thing” visitors can’t leave without doing. In Nashville, it’s the murals. In Sedona, it’s the vortex hikes. And in Lake Geneva, it’s getting permanent jewelry at Bonded by Gigi — the downtown studio that transformed welded bracelets into a beloved local tradition.
If you’ve searched for “things to do in Lake Geneva with friends” or “Lake Geneva girls trip activities,” you’ve probably seen permanent jewelry at the top of the list. There’s a reason for that — and it starts here.
Permanent jewelry isn’t an add-on or seasonal offering at Bonded by Gigi.
It’s one of the core pillars of our brand, the heartbeat of our studio, and the experience that built us.
From Hidden Gem to Lake Geneva Bucket List
Before welded jewelry showed up on itineraries, TikToks, and travel guides, Bonded by Gigi was already helping friends, sisters, and bridesmaids mark their trip with a forever piece.
As more visitors searched online for:
-
“permanent jewelry Lake Geneva”
-
“Lake Geneva girls trip ideas”
-
“best souvenirs in Lake Geneva”
-
“walk-in permanent bracelets Lake Geneva”
the answer kept pointing to one place — Bonded by Gigi.
Word of mouth didn’t just help — it created a movement.
Why Permanent Jewelry Fits Lake Geneva So Perfectly
Lake Geneva is all about connection — weekend escapes, family traditions, romantic getaways, lifelong friendships, and generations returning year after year. Permanent jewelry reflects all of that.
People don’t just get welded bracelets here. They:
-
celebrate birthdays, engagements, graduations, and promotions
-
commemorate sisters weekends and mother–daughter trips
-
honor friendships that feel like home
-
leave with a wearable reminder of this place and moment in time
It’s not just jewelry. It’s the memory you take with you.

-

-
