Choose Once More

For Daniel, from Emma

What they wrote: “We got married in the rain on a Tuesday because the venue was cheaper. Twenty years later he still dances with me in the kitchen to old radio songs, and he fixed my grandmother's piano so I could play again.”

My Always, Rachel

For Rachel, from Marcus

How a custom anniversary song is made

  1. Step 1

    Tell us your story

    Their name, a music style and a few sentences about the two of you: how you met, the first date that went wrong, the habit that still makes you laugh. Those details are what make a custom anniversary song sound like your marriage and no one else’s.

  2. Step 2

    Hear your sample

    In a few minutes you get two versions, with lyrics written around your story and their name in the first line and the chorus. Listen to the first 45 seconds of each and read all the lyrics. Not quite right? Make another version or edit your answers.

  3. Step 3

    Unlock and send

    For $9.99 you unlock both full versions, MP3 downloads and a private gift page with their name, the cover art and your message. Send the link, or play it at the anniversary dinner.

Why a custom anniversary song means more than flowers

After a few years, anniversary gifts get hard. You have done the dinner, the flowers and the jewellery, and you both know the card will end up in a drawer. A custom anniversary song is different because it is made from your shared history: the rainy wedding, the first apartment, the hoodie she never gave back. Hearing your own story sung back is a very different feeling from hearing a song that belongs to everyone.

It also says the things that are hard to say out loud. Plenty of people find it easier to press play than to give a speech. A custom anniversary song lets you tell your partner what the years have meant without having to find the words across the table.

And it lasts longer than a bouquet. The MP3 is yours to keep and the gift page stays up, so a custom anniversary song comes back on the next anniversary, on a long drive, or the night you finally slow dance in the kitchen again.

Custom anniversary song ideas by year

First anniversary

One year in: the wedding day, the first fight about the dishwasher, the trip you took after. A light pop or acoustic custom anniversary song suits a year of firsts.

5th anniversary

Five years usually means a move, a pet, maybe a baby. Put the chaos in the verses and keep the chorus about the person who held it together.

10th anniversary

A decade deserves a story told in order. A romantic ballad or R&B custom anniversary song works well for ten years of inside jokes.

25th silver anniversary

Children can make this one for their parents: how they met, the house they built, the kids they raised. Folk or country suits a song about a whole family.

50th golden anniversary

Fifty years of marriage is worth a song the whole party hears. Jazz and gospel suit grandparents; mention the place they married and their grandchildren.

Dating anniversary

Not married yet? A custom anniversary song works just as well for one year of dating, the day you moved in together or the night you first said I love you.

Wedding anniversary dinner

Play it after the dessert arrives. Let the waiter in on it if you want the whole restaurant to hear the chorus.

Vow renewal

Use it for the walk down the aisle the second time around, or as the first dance at the renewal party.

Who to make a custom anniversary song for

Custom anniversary song for your wife

How you met, what she does that makes you laugh, the thing you would tell her if you were better with words. A custom anniversary song for your wife is the gift she will play for her friends.

Custom anniversary song for your husband

Write about road trips, his questionable dance moves and the way he takes care of everyone. A custom anniversary song for your husband says the soft part without a speech.

For your girlfriend or boyfriend

A song with your story and their name is a romantic gift for a dating anniversary that does not feel like it came from a catalogue.

For your parents

For their 25th, 30th or 40th, write the story the family tells about how they met. Play it at the party and watch them hear it for the first time.

For your grandparents

A golden anniversary song with their names, their town and every grandchild is something they will ask to hear again and again.

For friends celebrating

Best friends hitting ten years married? A funny, loving song from the whole friend group makes a better toast than a speech.

Pick a style that sounds like the two of you

The style sets the mood. Pick the music you dance to together, or the song that was playing when you met; every style can carry their name and your story.

Pop

Bright and catchy, for a fun first anniversary or a couple who sings in the car.

Acoustic

Guitar and voice, warm and close. The safe choice for most anniversary songs.

Country

Story first: the small town, the truck, the porch where he proposed.

R&B

Smooth and romantic, for date night, a slow dance and a love that only gets better.

Rock

Big guitars for the couple who met at a concert and still go to every show.

Romantic ballad

Slow and emotional, the classic choice for weddings, vow renewals and milestone years.

Folk

Simple melody, honest words, good for long stories and a family looking back.

Jazz

Elegant and unhurried, lovely for a golden anniversary or a dinner party.

Hip hop

Rhythm and wordplay, for a playful tribute full of inside jokes.

Latin pop

Warm and danceable, for the couple who met on a dance floor.

Gospel

Uplifting and grateful, for a marriage built on faith and family.

Kids

Rarely for an anniversary, but sweet if the children are singing it to Mom and Dad.

From a few lines to a custom anniversary song

Here is the kind of answer that works. Name: Rachel. Relationship: wife. Style: R&B. Story: “Ten years married. Our first date was a camping trip where it rained all night and we laughed until sunrise. She still wears my old college hoodie and leaves sticky notes in my lunch every Monday.” From Marcus.

That is enough for a custom anniversary song that opens on Rachel, turns the rained-out camping trip into the first verse and builds the chorus around her name and the sticky notes. It is one of the examples above, so you can hear what came out. You get two versions with different melodies; if a detail is missing, change your answers before you pay.

How to write the story for an anniversary song

You have about 300 characters, so spend them on specifics. “We have been through a lot together” fits every couple. “We got married in the rain on a Tuesday because the venue was cheaper, and he still dances with me in the kitchen” fits one. That kind of line is what makes a custom anniversary song land.

Good details: where and how you met, the first date, the proposal, a place that matters, a habit you love, a hard time you got through together, and the one thing you want them to hear. Write their name the way you want it sung.

Pick the style your partner listens to, or the one from your wedding. If you are unsure, acoustic and romantic ballad suit almost every anniversary.

How much does a custom anniversary song cost?

A custom anniversary song written and recorded by a professional songwriter usually costs from about $99 to several hundred dollars and takes days or weeks. If you want a person to write it, plan ahead.

This custom anniversary song is made with AI from your story, so it is ready in minutes and costs $9.99, once. You hear a sample before you pay and can redo it up to three times for free. The price covers both full versions, MP3 downloads and the gift page. No subscription, no credits.

How to give a custom anniversary song

When you unlock it you get a private link to the gift page: their name, your message, the cover art and both versions. Only people with the link can open it, and no account is needed.

Send it first thing on the morning of your anniversary, write the link in a card, play it at dinner or add the MP3 to a slideshow of your photos. However you give it, a custom anniversary song is best heard together.
