Not sure what to do with your wedding and bridal shower cards? Wedding Cards by Artkive transforms them into a beautifully bound keepsake book. Simply fill the custom box with as many cards as can fit, send it back, and Artkive will professionally photograph, edit, and design your book—so you can revisit the love and sentiments from your special day without the clutter!
Wedding Cards by Artkive is the #1 solution for preserving and celebrating your wedding cards—easy, trusted, and beautifully crafted.
1. Declutter Without Losing
Precious Memories
Your wedding cards are filled with love and heartfelt messages, but they shouldn’t end up in a shoebox or storage bin. Instead, keep them beautifully preserved in a premium book, making it easy to revisit those sweet sentiments for years to come. We will send your cards back if you select that option at checkout, or we can recycle them for you.
2. No More Guilt About Storing (or Tossing) Your Cards
Many couples struggle with what to do with their wedding cards—keeping them means they take up space, but throwing them away feels wrong. With Wedding Cards by Artkive, you can transform them into a keepsake book that’s both meaningful and easy to store.

3. A Stunning Coffee Table Book That Tells Your Love Story
Instead of a stack of loose cards, enjoy a professionally designed book that becomes part of your home decor. Flip through it on anniversaries, share it with loved ones, and relive the excitement of your wedding day anytime.
4. The Perfect Wedding Gift for Newlyweds
Looking for a thoughtful and unique wedding or anniversary gift? Our Wedding Card Book is a heartfelt present that allows couples to cherish the loving messages from their wedding day in a truly special way.
5. You Don’t Need the Time, Skills, or Supplies to DIY a Scrapbook
Scrapbooking takes time, effort, and creative energy that many newlyweds don’t have (those thank you notes won’t write themselves). We do all the work for you—from photographing and editing each card to designing a high-quality book. Just send us your cards, and we’ll handle the rest!
6. Your Wedding Cards Are Protected from Damage, Loss, or Fading
Paper ages, ink fades, and accidents happen. But with a professionally bound book, your wedding cards will be preserved in a timeless, archival-quality format that lasts for generations. And in the unlikely event of an accident, Artkive can re-print your book.
7. Customize Your Book with Wedding Photos
Want to make your book even more special? You have the option to add wedding photos to your book proof, creating a complete keepsake that captures both the heartfelt words and the beautiful moments of your big day.
8. Your Memories, Your Way – Review Before You Print!
Before printing, you’ll receive a book proof to review and approve. You can choose the cover image and title, move pages around, and add custom captions, upload your own photos —ensuring your book turns out exactly how you want it.
Questions

Is the book included in the price? How many cards can I include in the box?Yes!

We had one made for our engagement party and my bridal shower...
Our books came out better than expected!!! Quality work! We had one made for our engagement party and my bridal shower. Just sent all our wedding cards in- can't wait to get that book back. Love, love, love!!!
Their quality of imaging is wonderful...
I ordered a book for my fiance for our wedding -- Artkive customer service is fantastic. I'm so glad I decided to ship more cards to my project vs. upload them digitally - their quality of imaging is wonderful. I'm really happy with the entire process - it's seamless and creates a beautiful book of memories. I will DEFINITELY be using this again after we're married and we have all our wedding cards. Simple - fast - effective. Couldn't recommend this product more to preserve cherished memories.

I can't recommend it highly enough...
A straightforward and beautiful service that made it so easy to downsize without losing those beautiful memories. I can't recommend it highly enough and the end result is a book that we will look at and enjoy much more easily than a box full of items and old cards parked in a closet somewhere.

Now I can enjoy the cards gifts over and over...
I just sent in 4 more boxes. This company helps preserve your sentimental cards with card in quality books that are beautiful! Not only can I get rid of boxes and boxes of cards but now I can enjoy the card gifts over and over in a book that fits on the shelf! Yes, seems a bit expensive but you will be happy you did it! And yes you can stuff the box as tight as you can :)

Preserving these memories in such a beautiful way... is invaluable...
I recently used Artkive to create two books featuring my children's artwork, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, the process was smooth and easy. The team at Artkive was professional, responsive, and made sure every detail was handled with care. They did a fantastic job organizing and displaying the artwork in a way that feels personal and meaningful. While the price point is on the higher side, I truly believe it’s worth the investment.
Preserving these memories in such a beautiful way, without the clutter of keeping stacks of artwork around the house, is invaluable. Overall, Artkive offers a fantastic service for any parent looking to preserve their children's artwork in a meaningful, long-lasting way. I highly recommend them and look forward to using their services again in the future.
