Olive wood city map: Preserve your wedding location forever
Some places change everything—the city where you said “I do,” the proposal spot, or the place where you first met. An olive wood board with a city map makes this place visible: a map of your chosen location, engraved into natural wood and complemented by names and a date. Here you will find inspiration for choosing the right place and designing your map.
A place that tells your story
Coordinates and maps tell stories with almost no words. That is exactly what makes an engraved olive wood city map so special: it is simple and stylish, yet carries deep emotional meaning. When you later see the board in the kitchen or on the dining table, you immediately remember the moment behind it.
Which place is right for you?
The most beautiful map is the one with the strongest story. These places work particularly well:
- The wedding location—the city or village where you got married.
- The proposal location—often a surprising, deeply personal place.
- Where you first met—the city where it all began.
- Your shared home—the place where your everyday life takes place.
- A place you long for—the favorite city from your travels together.
Choose the map shape: round, rectangular, or heart
The city map is available in three shapes—each creates a different effect:
- Round: classic and serene, with the look of a medallion.
- Rectangular: modern and spacious, with plenty of room for names and a date.
- Heart: romantic and emotional – the classic choice for a wedding.
You then choose one of 18 fonts and a size of approximately 35 to 50 cm. This creates a piece that fits your style exactly.
Occasions for which the city map is suitable
- Wedding: as a gift for the newlyweds or as a keepsake for yourselves.
- Engagement & civil wedding: the place where it all began.
- First wedding anniversary: A reminder of the place and date.
- Silver or golden wedding anniversary: Decades of shared life, with one place at the center.
