A Wedding Keepsake Like No Other
What Is The Story of Us?
The Story of Us is a gift from the wedding couple to their wedding guests, a thoughtfully written and beautifully designed booklet of the couple’s lives: wedding guests come away with a deeper sense of the wedding couple—as individuals, and what they mean to each other.
This meaningful keepsake/favor can be placed on each guest seat, included in welcome bags, or handed out at going home time—a precious memento that continues to resonate long after the wedding day.
The Story of Us
A wedding gathers the people who already know the protagonists—but also those who know them less.The Story of Us gently brings everyone into the same circle.
This custom-designed booklet tells the individual stories first, and then the story the couple created together. It is offered to the guests as a meaningful keepsake—something to read, to hold, and to keep.
More than a favor, it is an act of welcome.
The Structure of the Booklet
While every booklet is unique, The Story of Us usually unfolds in a simple,
elegant progression:
The Bride
A brief portrait of the bride—her background, formative moments, and what shaped her.
Not a biography, but a glimpse.The Groom
A parallel portrait of the groom—his story, character, and path.
Balanced, personal, and restrained.How You Met
The meeting of two lives.
Where and how your paths crossed, and what drew you together.The Proposal (or the Knowing)
Whether it was a formal proposal, a quiet agreement, or a shared certainty—this chapter marks the turning point.The Wedding Day
A closing reflection: the meaning of this day, the place, the moment, and the people gathered to witness it.
What It Can Include
Each booklet is carefully curated and personalized. It may may include:
Personal backgrounds of the bride and groom
Selected photographs (used sparingly and intentionally)
Meaningful dates or places
Favorite quotations, reading, or line of poetry
Wedding details such as date and location
A Note to Your Guests
A short message of gratitude—simple, sincere, and heartfelt
...

A Guided Process
Instead of interviews or calls, we provide thoughtfully designed questionnaires that gently guide you through your story: your background, how you met, the moments that mattered, and what this union means to you.
You can take your time. Reflect. Write in your own words.
You decide what is shared and how it is told.

From your responses, we carefully elaborate and shape the material into a coherent, flowing narrative—refining language, creating continuity, and ensuring balance between both voices.Nothing is invented. Nothing is exaggerated.
The story remains yours.Design & Presentation
