Anniversary gift

An anniversary gift website, made of your story.

Turn the years you've shared into a private website for your partner. Your moments, your places and a few letters for later, at one link with both your names.

Free while in early access.

Why a website for an anniversary?

Flowers fade and dinner reservations end. An anniversary is about the story you've written together, and that story deserves somewhere to live. A gift website keeps the first hello, the trip that went wrong and the little in-jokes in one place they can open whenever they like.

It's also private. Your partner opens it with a passcode only they would know, like the day you met. Nobody else sees the photos, and the site asks search engines not to list it.

Whether it's your first anniversary or your twentieth, you choose what goes in and what stays out. Change anything later, add a new moment every year, and it grows with you.

What goes inside

A sample gift's love story timeline, each moment with a date, a place and photos

Your love story, in order.

Each moment with a date, photos, a video and the story behind it. They scroll from the first day to today.

A world map with heart pins and dotted routes between the places in their story

A map of your places.

A pin for the café, the city, the beach. Press play and it flies from one to the next.

"Open when" letters on a string, each sealed with a wax heart, one locked with a question

Letters for later.

Write a letter to open on your next anniversary, sealed until the day, even a year away.

The keepsake book: each moment of the story laid out on paper, with a Save as PDF button

A keepsake book.

The whole gift laid out as a printable book, so the story is on paper too.

Ideas for your anniversary site

  • One moment for every year you have been together, with a photo from each.
  • Pins for every home you have shared, and the places you still want to go.
  • A letter sealed until next year: "Open on our next anniversary."
  • A quiz about the two of you, with a love coupon as the prize.
  • Wishes from the friends who were there at the start.
  • A passcode that is the date of your first kiss.

How to make one

  1. Pick your link. Sign up and choose a link with their name or both of yours, like alex-sam.xotale.com.
  2. Fill in your story. Add your moments, places, photos and letters. Choose one of nine themes. Change anything later.
  3. Seal it and send it. Set a passcode only they would know, like a date that matters, then send the link.

Questions, answered.

Is a website a good anniversary gift?

If your story matters to them, yes. It keeps your photos, places and words together in one private place they can open again and again.

Can I add to it every year?

Yes. Add new moments, places and letters whenever you like. The link stays the same.

Who can see our anniversary site?

Only people with the passcode. Without it, visitors see a welcome page with what you choose to show, nothing more.

Does it cost anything?

Holding your link is free, and XOtale is free while in early access.
