The most important thing to us is that the turtle dove alone is no symbol at all, they are a pair. Only when they are connected can true love and friendship be shown. We decided to show them in a circle, their wings touching, tounderline their unity. Since we're two best friends and we make videos about couples and friendships, we thought turtle doves would be the perfect symbol for us.
I (Becky) did the original drawing and Dodo did some great work on it with the computer to make it our icon. We really love this symbol, we love the purity and innocence behind it that can only be true love. What made us realise we wanted to make this our symbol/icon was the movie "Home Alone 2", where the symbol was first explained to me (Becky) as a young girl.
"As long as each of you has their turtle dove, you'll be friends forever." Sorry for the bad quality, but this was the only video on youtube!
Check out our videos on youtube! We'd really love some feedback, too, so please comment and rate!
