With the ever growing popularity of podcasting, welcome to the next big thing which makes podcasting accessible.
Story Locker, a one of a kind in the UK podcast recording service that lets participants create a personal podcast based on their life story or to celebrate other special moments in life.
The couple can choose to either record their podcast before their wedding day and recall the journey of their love story – from when they first met & the engagement (how it all happened!) to setting the date, the planning and build up to the big day or record their podcast after their wedding day to include memories of the big day too!
Alongside their photos and videos, their podcast will become a special part of all the things that help them create precious memories of their Wedding. It's a new and unique way to create a digital legacy, in their own voices, which they can listen back to and share with friends and family forever.
Through a straightforward booking system, the service allows the couple to choose a 45-90 minute package and an interview is scheduled between the them and one of Story Locker's professional interviewers (line-up includes those that have worked at the BBC, Radio One, The Guardian and more).
Edited with sound effects and curated music, the studio quality wedding podcast is expertly produced and hosted within the couple's secure webpage – the 'Locker', which can then become their family legacy portal that can host multiple podcasts which they may wish to record to celebrate the many life milestones they will share together.
The Pre and Post Wedding Podcast package includes:
· A studio quality 60-minute podcast recording
· Choice of one of our wonderful professional interviewers
· A 30-minute video call with their Interviewer to get to know each other
· A tech producer to ensure quality and attention to detail
· 2 'soundbites' from the podcast for them to share on your socials
· A dedicated QR code for them to share their podcast e.g. on their Thank You cards
· Their podcast will also be stored in their own Story Locker with show notes and precious photos from their wedding.
What's more, guests also have the opportunity to buy the most unique gift for the special couple, and gift the happy couple with a Wedding Podcast so when the big day is over, they can capture and preserve their wedding memories in a totally new and unique way.
