The birthdays you never want to miss, and the ones you might not be here for. Plan your words now. We deliver them on the day, whether that's next month or long after you're gone.
Birthdays, anniversaries, the big firsts. Set them up once, write whenever you're ready, and we'll deliver your words on the day.
Letters for future milestones, heirlooms, special surprises and custom packages, planned with you and delivered after you've gone.
Some you'll be there for. Some you might not. Either way, your words arrive right on time.
A letter for each of your child's coming birthdays. A yearly arrival they'll look forward to.
Written months ahead, timed to land on the morning itself. For a partner, a daughter, a son.
FIFO, defence, long trips. Your love arrives home on the dates you know you'll miss.
Expecting parents, writing now, to be opened on baby's first birthday.
A quiet "thinking of you" timed to arrive on a friend's most difficult day.
Encouragement timed for exam results, a first job, or moving out of home.
Apart for study or work. Letters that land on your anniversaries and birthdays.
A letter to yourself, a year from now. A New Year intention you'll meet again.
Who it's for and the day it should arrive, from tomorrow to 5 years away. That's all you need to start.
Choose a font and see every page as it will print, up to 3 sheets. We'll nudge you if you leave it unfinished.
A free e-letter, or printed on beautiful paper with a wax seal or keepsake. Send automatically, or confirm closer to the day.
E-letters land at 8am on the day. Printed letters are printed, sealed and addressed by hand, and posted to arrive on time.
E-letters are free. Printed letters cover stationery, printing, hand-addressing, a personal check and postage, even years from now.
Your words, delivered by email at 8am on the day.
100% recycled premium stock with a matching envelope.
Sustainably sourced fine paper with a weight and texture you can feel.
When you pay more than 6 months before the date, a small timing fee covers keeping your letter safe for years and rising postage. Choose "confirm closer to the day" and you'll usually pay none.
Book several printed letters in one go, like the next five birthdays, and save on the whole order. Pay now, write each one whenever you like.
Example: the next 5 birthdays on Classic, about $230 in total.
Write down your stories, memories and wishes, add up to 5 photos, and keep them safe in one private place.
Letters, heirlooms and surprises for when you're no longer here, or dates beyond 5 years. Always starts with a conversation.
