Engagement Montage
An engagement montage that tells how you met, built from the photos you already have. Play it at the party or send it to family. From The Montage Maven.
You got engaged. Somewhere in the next few months you will tell the story of how you met roughly two hundred times. An engagement montage tells it once, properly, and then keeps telling it for you.

Watch an Engagement Montage
Here is Matthew and Alexis's, the story of how they met, cut for their engagement party.
The How We Met Video
Every couple has the story. The setup that should not have worked. The app nobody admits to. The mutual friend who still takes credit. A how we met video puts it on a screen: the two of you before you knew each other existed, the night it started, and the years since.
It plays at the engagement party, and it plays again at the rehearsal dinner and the wedding if you want it to.
What Goes Into an Engagement Video Montage
Childhood photos from both sides. Screenshots of the first texts, which are always better than either of you remembers. The trip where it got serious. The friends who were there for all of it. We work with whatever you have, in whatever condition it is in.
If Somebody Filmed the Proposal
Proposal footage is almost always shaky, vertical, and shot by a cousin half hidden behind a tree. It is also the single best clip you will ever hand us. Send it exactly as it is. We will cut around the shaky parts and keep the moment.
Everything Happens in One Place
You get a private link to your own page. Upload photos and video from your phone or your laptop, then send that same link to anyone you like: your mother, his sister, the friend with the good camera roll. They add theirs. Everything lands in one place instead of scattered across six text threads.
Drag the photos into the order you want them to play. Leave a note on any of them. This is her grandmother. Do not use this one. Start here. When your draft is ready you watch it on that same page and tell us what to change right on the video, at the exact second you mean.
Nothing to install and no account to make. Your friends can add their photos from their phones in about a minute.
Choosing the Music
The song does most of the emotional work. Same photos, different song, completely different room. We will talk through what the two of you actually listen to and build the edit around it.
A Gift That Outlasts the Party
Engagement montages are not always ordered by the couple. Parents, siblings, and friends commission them too, and it lands differently from anything else on the gift table. It is the story of the two of you, and it keeps playing long after the party is over.
How It Works
You send what you have. We build it. You watch a draft and tell us what to change. We deliver a file you can play anywhere and send to anyone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is an engagement montage the same as a wedding montage?
They are close cousins. An engagement montage is about how the two of you got here. A wedding montage is made for the reception screen and plays to a bigger room. Plenty of couples do both, and the second one is easier because we already have your photos.
Can we play it at the rehearsal dinner too?
Yes, and many couples do. If you know that in advance, tell us and we will cut it with both rooms in mind. Some couples order a separate rehearsal dinner montage instead.
What if we do not have many photos together?
Almost nobody does at this stage, and it matters less than you would think. The years before you met are half the story.
Is this the same as an engagement slideshow?
Same idea, different execution. Not photos on a timer, but an edited film with music and pacing.
When should we start?
Whenever the photos start arriving. Gathering them from family is the slow part, not the edit.
