Write our story
Before and after

Not “we met at a party.” The jukebox.

Most “our story” pages read like a form. Yours starts from the small true things you tell us.

Before: the notes

“met at Nadia's birthday at the Crown, Oct 2021. Sam put ABBA on the jukebox three times, Jo complained, then stayed till closing. first date was a 10k Jo had signed up for and Sam ran it with no training, came last. proposal: on the sofa, a Tuesday, Sam had the ring for 5 months. dog: Biscuit. tone: funny, not soppy.”

After: written from those notes (website version, opening)

“Jo and Sam met over a disagreement about ABBA. It was October 2021, Nadia's birthday at the Crown, and Sam had put “Waterloo” on the jukebox for the third time. Jo went over to complain. Jo stayed until closing. The first date was a 10k that Jo had signed up for months earlier; Sam entered the morning of it, with no training, and came last, cheerfully. Four years, two flats and one dog called Biscuit later, Sam proposed on the sofa on an ordinary Tuesday, having carried the ring around for five months waiting for a moment that was special enough. The Tuesday, it turned out, was the moment.”

Sample: Jo and Sam are a made-up couple. Every real story comes only from what you tell us.

Questions

Where does it go?

On the wedding website's “Our story” page, in the programme or order of service, and read aloud by whoever is leading the ceremony if you want it there. You get all three lengths, so you do not have to cut it yourself.

Will it be in our voice?

It is written only from your answers and in the tone you pick, and it uses your words for the parts that matter: the line one of you said, the name of the bar, the dog. Nothing is added that you did not tell us. You read it before anyone else does.

Is it the ceremony script?

No. The ceremony script ($79) is every line the officiant says. This is the story of the two of you, in three lengths, for the website and the programme; if you also order the ceremony script, the same story opens it.
