Make Your Anniversary Unforgettable With a Map of Every Place You Have Been Together

Your anniversary is coming. You want something better than flowers or jewelry. Something that says “I remember every place we have been together.”

A custom travel map does that.

Not a generic poster. A map of your actual shared trips. The city where you met. The beach where you got engaged. The mountain town where you spent your first anniversary.

Here is how to create one in 5 minutes using CreateTravelMap. No design skills needed. No software to learn. Just your locations and a few clicks.

Why a Travel Map Works Better Than Jewelry or Bags

Jewelry gets worn sometimes. Bags get replaced. A map hangs on the wall every single day.

Here is what a custom travel map says that a gift box cannot:

“I remember the places we have been.”
“Our trips together matter to me.”
“I want to see our story every morning when I walk into the room.”

That is why couples use CreateTravelMap for anniversaries more than any other occasion.

What You Need Before You Start

You need three things:

1. A list of locations you have visited together
Think about first dates, trips, weekends away, honeymoon, or just the city where you live. Any place that matters.

2. A title and short description
Examples:
Title: Our First 5 Years
Description: Sarah and Michael

Title: From Boston to Bangkok
Description: The trips that made us

Title: The Year We Traveled Every Month
Description: 12 cities. 12 months. One map.

3. Five minutes

That is it. No credit card required to build and preview. You only pay when you are ready to download your HD printable file.

How to Create Her Anniversary Map in 6 Steps

Go to CreateTravelMap

Step 1: Add your locations
Use the search bar to add each city or place you have visited together. The map automatically places pins at each location.

Framed custom travel map surrounded by anniversary keepsakes and travel memories.

Drag and reorder locations using the three line icon if you want the route to tell a specific story.

Step 2: Choose your map style
Select from the map style options. If you do not see map lines at first, add your locations again. The lines appear once locations are loaded.

Step 3: Name your journey
Enter a title up to 50 characters.
Example: 10 Years of Wandering Together

Enter a description up to 100 characters.
Example: Every place we have called home and every country we have explored. Happy anniversary.

Step 4: Choose map orientation
Select portrait for a vertical map. Good for a single country or a focused region.
Select landscape for a wide map. Good for road trips or trips across multiple countries.

Step 5: Adjust settings
Change the pin size using the slider. Default is 15 pixels.
Adjust the plane line curve to control how curved the route lines are. A setting of 0 makes straight lines between locations. Higher numbers create more arc.

Step 6: Select frame and layout
Choose a border style: No Frame, Classic White, Thin Black, Polaroid, Double Line, Rounded, or Vintage.

Choose a title layout: Gradient Bottom, Clean Bottom, Top Banner, Centered, Minimalist, or Banner Strip.

Where and How to Print Her Map

After you download the HD file, you have three printing options.

Print at home
Use any home printer with matte photo paper. Standard letter size 8.5×11 works well. Cost is just the paper and ink you already have.

Print at a local shop
Take the file to Staples, Walgreens, FedEx Office, or a local print shop. Ask for a poster print on matte paper. Most shops print in 15 to 30 minutes. Cost is 10to10to25 depending on size.

Print online
Upload your file to MPIX, Shutterfly, or Snapfish. They ship a finished print to your door in 3 to 7 days. Cost is 15to15to40 including shipping.

What to Write on the Gift Note

Handwrite a short note to go with the map. Examples:

“This map is every place we have been. I cannot wait to see where we go next.”

“Happy anniversary. Look at all the places that belong to us.”

“Some couples collect things. We collect cities. Here is the proof.”
