Anniversary gifts

An anniversary map of where it all began

Where you met, where you said I do and your first home — the places of your story on one poster, each in its own shape with a line of its own. Or the night sky over the evening you met.

  • Two or three UK places on one poster, as circles, hearts, houses or squares
  • A line under each place: “Where we met · 2014”
  • One of your own photos in place of a map, if you like
  • Or the night sky over any of the places

From £26 · free UK delivery

A story map with Caversham, Sonning and Tilehurst in a circle, a heart and a house, in a black frame above a sideboard
Digitally styled room: the maps are real and drawn as they print; frame and scale are illustrative. The names are an example.

Ideas for the words

  • Anna & Tom
  • Our story
  • Where it all began
  • Ten years of us
  • Where we met · 2014
  • Then, now, always

The title goes at the top; each place has its own line underneath.

The paper anniversary

The first wedding anniversary is traditionally paper, and this is a print on 200gsm matte paper — framed, it's ready to hang.

Choosing the places

Most couples choose where they met, where they married and their first home. A first date, a favourite holiday or where your children were born work too.

How it works

Your story, on your wall.

  1. Step 1

    Choose your places

    Search two or three UK places and frame each one: where you met, where you married, your first home.

  2. Step 2

    Make it yours

    Pick the shapes and colours, write a line under each place, and add a photo or a night sky if you like.

  3. Step 3

    Printed & delivered

Questions

Good to know

What's the paper anniversary?

The first wedding anniversary is traditionally paper. A story map printed on 200gsm matte paper fits the tradition — and framed, it's ready to hang.

How many places can we include?

Two or three: side by side on a landscape poster, or stacked on a portrait one.

Can one of the places be a photo?

Yes — the two of you on your wedding day, say, or your first front door. At least one place stays a map or a night sky.

Can one of the places be the night sky?

Yes. Choose “The stars” for any place and set the date and the time, and it shows the sky over it at that moment.

Where does the map come from?

From OpenStreetMap, the open map of the world that volunteers keep up to date. Every road, path, river, railway and park on your poster is real map data, drawn in the colours you choose. Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors.

Will I see it before I pay?

Yes. You see the whole poster as you make it, and you approve it before checkout. Please check the spelling — we print the words you approve.

How is it delivered?

Every poster is printed to order and delivered free in the UK. See Delivery & returns for timings and what we do if anything arrives damaged.
