Tell the couple's story through memories and places — Album Map planning kit
Example and walkthrough: https://albummap.com/examples/anniversary-love-story-video

SAMPLE BRIEF
Choose a few chapters from the relationship, such as the first meeting, a first home, a shared trip, and life today. For a 25th or 50th anniversary, invite people from different eras to contribute one specific memory. Keep the couple's preferences in mind when choosing a private or group celebration.
- The couple's names and anniversary details
- Photos from several chapters of the relationship
- Meaningful places and a short explanation of each
- Family messages and a collection deadline
Aim: A clear love story that connects places, photos, and familiar voices, ending with a wish for the years ahead.

STORYBOARD
1. Where it began: Introduce the couple and the place where their story began.
   Prompt: For [names], celebrating a life built together.
2. Building a life: Pair early photos with a home, a wedding venue, or another turning point.
   Prompt: What small memory from those early years still makes you smile?
3. Shared journeys: Follow favorite trips and family milestones with photos and short captions.
   Prompt: Which place brings back a story only the two of you know?
4. Voices from the family: Bring together memories from relatives and longtime friends.
   Prompt: What has this couple taught you about building a life together?
5. The next chapter: Finish with a recent photo and a shared anniversary wish.
   Prompt: Here's to the places and memories still ahead.

CONTRIBUTOR MESSAGE — replace the placeholders before sharing
We're making an anniversary video for [names]. Please share one photo, a short video message, or a written memory. Try: 'One moment that shows the two of you at your best is…' Tell us the place or year if it helps the story. Add your contribution by [date] using [private contribution link].

WALKTHROUGH
1. Choose the audience and the reveal
Decide whether this is a private gift for your partner or a group tribute for a celebration. Confirm names, the anniversary year, and when the video will be shown. Set a contribution deadline early enough to review everything.
2. Collect a memory from each era
Ask family and friends for one specific story, a favorite photo, or a short message. Share the private invitation link and offer a written note for people who prefer not to record. Match meaningful places to the memories, using city-level locations when detail is unnecessary.
3. Arrange the relationship story
Group contributions into chapters. Start with the earliest shared memory, move through the years, and finish in the present. Choose map stops that explain the story, then try a map style that keeps photos and captions easy to follow.
4. Check the tribute before sharing
Preview names, dates, captions, and audio. Make sure private memories are appropriate for the intended audience. Export the finished video and test playback on the device used for the anniversary reveal.
