A 25th or 50th anniversary is not a normal anniversary. It is the one day the whole family stops and says thank you. Flowers and a cake will be there. A song nobody else has will be the thing everyone remembers.
Our songwriters take your family's stories and turn them into about three minutes of music. Your parents hear their own names, their own jokes and their own hard years, sung back to them. Most people cry in the first verse. Then they ask you to play it again.
What should a song for a 25th or 50th anniversary say?
The best songs are not about love in general. They are about this one couple. Think of the year they married, the first small flat, the scooter that never started, the festival they never missed together.
A silver jubilee song usually looks back and says thank you. A golden jubilee song can also look at grandchildren, old age and the way two people finish each other's sentences. Tell us which feeling you want and we will match it.
Do not worry if your parents seem plain. Every long marriage has a hundred stories nobody has written down. Ask your aunts, your grandmother and the old family friends. Often a single sentence from them becomes the line that makes the room go silent.
- How they met, and who laughed about it first
- What Papa does that Mummy pretends to hate
- A hard year they got through together
- The family saying everyone repeats at dinner
- What you learned about marriage by watching them
How do siblings pool money for one anniversary song?
This is the most common way these gifts happen. One sibling places the order, the others send their share by UPI. Split between four siblings, even the Studio song at ₹999 comes to about ₹250 each.
Create one WhatsApp group for the brothers, sisters, bhabhis and cousins. Ask everyone to send one memory or one line they want in the song. Our songwriters can weave each voice in, so the song feels like it came from all of you and not from one person.
Want something that lasts beyond the party? Signature, from ₹7,999, adds a photo music video and a framed lyric print for the living room wall. Enquire on WhatsApp and we will plan it with you.

How do you play it at the anniversary party?
You get a private gift page with a player, an MP3 download and the lyrics. Nothing is shipped. Download the MP3 to your phone the day before so you are not depending on venue wifi.
Give the MP3 to whoever runs the speaker or DJ. Decide the moment in advance. Some families play it right after the cake. Others play it while a slideshow of old photos runs, which works very well with a song about their years.
- Test the speaker with the file before guests arrive
- Print the lyric sheet so elders can read along
- Keep one family member ready to say a few words before it starts
- Record your parents' faces while it plays; that video becomes its own gift
Which language and package suit parents best?
For most parents, Hindi lands deepest. It is the language of their own childhood and their wedding songs. If your family speaks Punjabi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi or Gujarati, choose that instead. Hinglish works if the grandchildren will sing along.
The Note (₹399) is a full original song in 5 days. The Serenade (₹799) takes 3 days and adds lyrics on WhatsApp for your OK before we produce the song, which is useful when many people have opinions, and a lyric sheet the elders can read along with. If the party is close, Studio (₹999) is delivered within 24 hours, with a lyric video for the screen and a music video cut from their old photos.
Can the song be a surprise for your parents?
Yes, and that is how most families do it. Place the order from your phone, not from a shared family device. The private gift page and the WhatsApp message come only to you, so your parents never see a thing.
Tell us in the order notes if there are names or places that should be pronounced a certain way. Names can be spelled several ways, and a quick note stops a small mistake from spoiling a big moment.
If you have a few weeks, ask the other relatives for a short voice note each. You can send them to us with the order, and a line or two from an uncle or a grandchild can be woven into the verses.
Five minutes from you. A song for life.

The moment they press play is the moment they realise how much you mean it.
“He says he doesn’t want anything, every single year. I played it at 12 sharp on a video call and he went quiet for a full minute. Then asked me to play it again. And again.”
“I’m terrible with words and she knows it. I gave them our 2 am Maggi, her ‘bas paanch minute’ and our one Goa trip. She made it her ringtone. Not complaining.”
“Mumma is not a crier. She cried. Then she called my mausi and played it on speaker. The lyric sheet with the QR code is stuck on the fridge now, so every guest gets a demo.”
“The lyrics came on WhatsApp for my OK the next evening. I changed one line about our first trip to Pondy and they fixed it within the hour. The final song was beautiful.”
“My brother lives in Toronto now and the rakhi wouldn’t reach in time, so I sent this. He replied with a voice note that was mostly sniffing. Best rakhi ever, honestly.”
“Six months of time zones and missed calls, and somehow it all fit in three minutes. He plays it on the metro to office. I know because he sends me screenshots.”
“We played it at the sangeet as a surprise for Meera’s parents. Her dad, who has never danced in public, stood up. We have it on video. Worth every rupee.”
“We had a bad fight and I didn’t know how to start talking again. Sent this with a two line message. She called in ten minutes. A song doesn’t fix everything, but it opened the door.”
“We put in his old Bajaj scooter, his terrible jokes and how he still calls me ‘beta ji’. Everyone was in tears by the second verse. He has made his whole walking group listen to it.”
“Took Studio because I’d left it to the night before. Sent 15 photos on WhatsApp and the next evening I had the song and a music video of us. Felt like a trailer of our relationship.”
“My best friend moved to Berlin. The song has our hostel days, the 3 am chai runs and the bike that never started. He plays it when he misses home. I play it when I miss him.”
“Fifteen years married and he still gets shy when I say I love you. Now I don’t say it, I just play the song. He pretends to be annoyed and hums it all day.”
“He had it playing in the background when he proposed and I didn’t realise it was about us at first. Then I heard my nickname. That’s when I lost it.”
“Made it in Punjabi for my Bebe. She doesn’t use a phone, so my cousin played it on the TV. She clapped along and then asked who told them about her garden.”
“Ordering from Dubai felt risky but it was easy. Filled the form in five minutes and got updates on WhatsApp the whole way. My husband now thinks I’m very romantic. Let him.”
“Was skeptical about paying for a song. Then the first verse had the exact chai stall where we met. Took The Serenade, framed the lyric sheet and gave it with the song.”
“Asked for one change in the chorus and they did it without any fuss. Mummy plays it every morning with her chai now. Papa is jealous and wants his own.”
“Mum and Dad’s 30th. I’m in London, they’re in Vadodara. We played it on a family video call. Dad tried to act cool and failed. Mum asked for the lyrics printed, so the QR sheet was perfect.”
