A Wedding Time Capsule: Videos and Letters

A wedding time capsule is the video greetings, letters and memories a couple will open years later. Ideas for what to put inside and when to open it together.

A wedding is the start of a shared story, and it is natural to want to keep the emotions of that day for a long time. A wedding time capsule gathers videos, letters and memories the couple will open years later, reliving the feelings everything began with.

What a wedding time capsule is

It is a personal message to the future, created by the couple, their family and their friends. Most often it is meant to be opened on a particular anniversary — for example, after 5, 10 or 25 years of marriage.

What to put inside

  • Video greetings from parents, witnesses and guests
  • Letters to each other, to be read on an anniversary
  • Shared promises and dreams for the future
  • Photos from the wedding day and the preparations
  • Warm wishes from the closest people

When to open the capsule

It is most moving to tie the opening to a meaningful anniversary. You can even make several capsules: one for the first anniversary, another for the tenth. Each becomes a small celebration and a reminder of how it all began.

Dlya Ridnyh helps you assemble such a capsule: videos, letters and photos from different people, with a chosen opening date. Everything is kept private until your special anniversary arrives.
