Questions
How much does a Story Collection cost?
What is the timeline for a Story Collection?
Once you reach out to us, you will receive a questionnaire.
From there, your main role is to choose your story guests and to gather their contact details.
You will receive an invitation to forward to your guests via email or SMS. This will guide them to a secure website, where they can directly record their messages—no fiddling with apps or tricky external technology.
We then edit their audio expertly to music, adding in special personal touches to create a beautiful and memorable listening experience. The audio is delivered via a secure, custom website.
On their special day, your gift recipient simply needs to get comfortable and click play on their mobile phone or computer to immerse themselves in their unique experience.
What does the process look like?
A typical project timeline is 4 to 6 weeks.
Story Guests are given 2 or 3 weeks to record their message and audio editing typically takes 2 or 3 weeks depending on the chosen Collection; Aria, Sonata or Symphony.
If your loved one's special event is sooner than this, please contact us to discuss your timing.
What is the Timeline for a Story Collection?
You will receive The Story Collection Mp3 audio file via email before the final Event Date.
You are welcome to review this audio (one round of edits) however, this step is optional, as some clients choose not to listen to the curated audio.
How many audio revisions are there?
Starting at $150, the cost of your Collection will depend on the number of invited story guests and the chosen length of recording time.
Once you have nominated the number of guests, you will receive a customised quote and contract. When your contract is signed and 30% deposit is paid, a custom voice-recording webpage and invitation will be designed for your guests.
The remaining 70% is due before your guest's story deadline, for editing and story curation to begin.

We want to make your guests comfortable so they can enjoy this unique moment to share their thoughts. Clear instructions are included in the voice-recording webpage, but if technology is overwhelming for any of your guests, a message can be recorded over the phone.
What if some guests are not comfortable with technology?
Your questionnaire answers will help us to choose fitting atmospheric, licensed music to suit both your loved one's musical taste and the tone of their celebration.
Copyright laws prevent us from including commercial music, but each song in the Collection will be carefully chosen to reflect each spoken message.

We have curated a 'five senses' gift hamper for your loved one to enjoy as they listen to their Story Collection.
We would love to discuss the gift hamper options that will make your recipient feel as special as they are.
How do I purchase a gift hamper?
The Story Collection audio file is played via a private, custom website. A web address and password will be sent to you via email to give to your loved one.
They will also receive the audio files in M4a and WAV format to download and enjoy forever.
The Story Collection takes your loved one on a musical and memorable journey that can be a profound and powerful experience. It is best to listen to The Story Collection for the first time in a peaceful, lovely setting.
