To My Love: An Anniversary Magazine Guide

To My Love is one of our magazine designs, made as an anniversary issue for the two of you. It suits couples marking an anniversary, a milestone or simply a year together, and it can be made with your own photos, names and words. Its pages cover an editor's note, who you each are, where your story began, a year in review, an A to Z of your relationship, your travels and a bucket list.

Who this magazine is for, and for which occasion

To My Love is written for two people who want to look back on their life together and look ahead at the same time. It suits an anniversary, a milestone birthday shared as a couple, or a quiet evening that marks a year together.

It is a good fit when the gift is meant to be read, not just opened. Couples who like to reminisce, or who enjoy small inside jokes, tend to get the most from it. If you would rather tell a longer story of your whole life together, a wedding-focused design or a more general memory magazine may suit you better. You can see the full range in our catalogue.

You can read more about this magazine on its own page.

What's inside

To My Love is made of these pages, in this order:

  • An editor's note, written to the two of you
  • Who she really is, and who he really is
  • Where your story began
  • A year in review
  • An A to Z of us
  • Your travels
  • A bucket list

Each of these is a set of pages you fill with your own photos and words. The structure is fixed, so you can focus on the content rather than the layout.

For example, the 'Where your story began' pages could hold a first-meeting photo, a short note about the place, and a line each about how you remember it. The 'A to Z of us' pages suit short entries, one letter at a time, with a photo where it fits.

### How you make it yours

You can personalise To My Love with your own photos, names and words. You choose which pictures go on which pages, and you write the text. Everything can be changed before you order.

You have two ways to make it:

  • With Dee, our AI assistant. Dee asks you questions about your story, your favourite places and the moments you want to keep, and then drafts the magazine for you. You can edit anything Dee writes.
  • By hand, in the editor. If you already know what you want to say, you can place photos and write each page yourself.

Either way, you review the finished magazine before it is printed. Pages can also carry QR codes that play a voice message or a video, which is a nice addition for an anniversary.

Sizes and page counts

To My Love is printed at A4 (210 × 297 mm). It can be ordered in any of these page counts: 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, & 52. Page counts go up in steps of 4, from 16 pages to 52 pages.

If you are ordering for delivery outside Türkiye, the magazine is also available in US Letter size.

The page count you choose affects how much room you have for photos and stories. A shorter magazine works well for a focused set of memories; a longer one leaves space for more years and more places.

Is it the right design for you?

To My Love is focused on a couple's story. If the gift is for a parent, a friend or a whole family, another design may suit you better. You can browse all our designs and compare them before you decide.

If you are not sure how many pages or photos you need, our guide to how many pages and photos a personalised magazine needs explains how to decide.

How to start

The quickest way to begin is to start a new magazine and let Dee guide you through your story. You can also open the To My Love design directly in the editor and work through the pages in your own order.

When you are ready, start making your magazine with Dee. You can see how the whole process works on our how-it-works page, and find delivery information on the shipping page.
