Digital wedding gift

Create a digital wedding gift from the voices and memories around the couple

A wedding gift becomes distinctive when it contains something the couple cannot simply buy. Messages, private stories and short videos from people around them can form a small digital archive of the moment.

Why this format works

If you use ChronoBoxes, set the reveal for the wedding day or another date within six months. For a longer archive, keep separate durable copies of the media.

ChronoBoxes separates the moment of creation from the moment of discovery. The recipient gets a private link, sees the waiting experience and opens the content when the configured date and any optional gate conditions are met.

Ideas you can use

  • Ask family members for one story each.
  • Record a 15-second message from people who cannot attend.
  • Use one photo from each side of the family.
  • Open the gift during a speech, breakfast or post-wedding dinner.
  • Reveal a second physical gift in the final message.

How to create this ChronoBox

  1. Write the core message first. Decide what the recipient should remember, discover or feel before adding effects.
  2. Choose a date that has context. Timing should connect to the birthday, anniversary, project, trip or milestone.
  3. Add gates only when they improve the experience. A secret question or location is optional.
  4. Add media only if it adds meaning. You can include up to 6 photos and 1 video for free; boxes with uploaded media can open up to 6 months after creation.
  5. Share the private link. Treat it as private information and send it only to the intended recipient or participants.

A concrete example

“Some of these messages came from people who could not be in the room. We saved them for the moment you would finally have time to hear them.”

Use the example as a structure, not as copy. The more specific the message is to the people and moment involved, the more valuable it becomes when it opens.

What is included for free?

ChronoBoxes has no paid tier. Text-only boxes keep encrypted content inside the private link. If you add photos or video, those files use temporary server storage so they can be revealed later.

Text-only · FreeMessage, opening date and optional gates. Encrypted content travels in the private link.
Photos + video · FreeUp to 6 photos + 1 video. No checkout. Normal ChronoBoxes can open up to 6 months from creation.

What to avoid

  • Do not use ChronoBoxes as your only long-term archive; keep independent backups of important media.
  • Do not publish private capsule links on public pages or social feeds if the content is personal.
  • Do not make questions or location gates so difficult that they block the intended recipient.
