Wedding gift ideas from guests who could not be there

What remains after the wedding weekend
Registry gifts are useful, but couples rarely remember who chose each item. What they do remember are the toasts, familiar voices, and people who found a way to be part of the day.
A voice message preserves the blessing attached to the gift. It also gives absent guests time to say more than they could fit into a card mailed before the wedding.
A place for every guest's voice
Guests record a short message whether they attend the wedding or stay home. Starcard gathers the recordings in a private night sky for the couple.
The message might be a blessing, a memory of one partner before they met the other, or advice grounded in a marriage the couple knows. A personal story will age better than a polished speech.
Include people who cannot make the trip
Destination weddings often leave important people off the guest list because travel is expensive or difficult. A destination wedding gift built from their voice messages gives them a personal way to take part.
Send the recording link before people begin traveling. Guests can contribute from home, and the organizer can review everything before the wedding weekend starts.
When the couple should open it
The wedding day itself can be too full for twenty-five messages. The couple might open their Starcard the next morning, during the trip home, or on a quiet evening after the photographs and gifts have been sorted. They can return to it whenever they want.
What the group gift includes
One Starcard costs $9.99 and accepts up to twenty-five messages. The couple can return to their private Starcard after delivery.
Gather the wishes the couple may not have time to hear on the day.
A Starcard costs $9.99 as a one-time purchase and includes up to twenty-five voices with no time limit on access.
