01. The Romantics

Perfect for wedding albums, engagement shoots, or anniversary gifts.

• "The first chapter of our forever. [Date]"

• "Not always eye to eye, but always heart to heart."

• "Hand in hand, heart to heart, from the very first day to this one."
  

• To a lifetime of 'remember whens' and 'I love yous'.

• Brak je savez u kojem se ne traži savršenstvo, već prisutnost.
  U kojem se ne broje reči, već dela – i ne traži krivica,
  već razumevanje.
  Želim vam da uvek gledate jedno drugo očima iz kojih je sve krenulo.
  Da ostanete tim – i kad je smeh glasan, i kad tišina traje.
  Da se ne pitate ko je više dao, već kako da jedno drugom budete
  oslonac i mir.
  Ljubav nije samo ono što osećate – već ono što birate.
  Svakog dana, iznova.

• Hugs and kisses for the future
  Mr. & Mrs.
  
• Uzeću te izmedju svoje dve ruke, jedino kako znam...
  i smestiću se izmedju tvoje dve, jedino kako mogu.
  
• Your brown eyes are my blue skies.

02. The Little Ones

For baby books, first birthdays, and the magic of growing up.

• "Ten little fingers, ten little toes, and a love that only grows."

• "Stay little, grow big."

• "May you always be as brave as you are curious."
  

• "Tiny moments, big memories. We love you to the moon and back."

• Cveće je ukras bašte
  Leptir je ukras cveta
  A deca puna mašte
  Deca su
  Ukras sveta
  

• Sve su odrasle osobe nekad bile deca.
  (Ali se malo njih toga seća)
  - Mali Princ

• rešenje
  za
  sve
  je
  uvek
  dremka
  od
  tri
  sata
  ili
  tri
  kugle
  sladoleda
  
• Zato leti.
  Sanjaj.
  Trči.
  Stvaraj zoru kad je veče.
  Nek od tebe život uči
  da se peni i da teče.
  Budi takvo neko čudo
  što ne ume ništa malo,
  pa kad kreneš - kreni ludo,
  ustreptalo,
  radoznalo.
  

03. The Adventurers

For travel journals, honeymoon albums, and gap year memories.

• "Collecting moments, not things."

• "Not all who wander are lost, but we definitely took the scenic route."

• "To the mountains we climbed and the oceans we crossed."
  

• Let’s go everywhere together.

• EXPLORE. STAY CURIOUS. LOVE. MAKE MEMORIES.
• Eto to ti želim.
  Da na svim stvarima koje dotakneš
  ostaviš prozirne otiske,
  nevidljivi miris lepote
  i lelujanje poljubaca.
  Da budeš vitki most
  visoko iznad ponora,
  po kojem struje
  i sele se nebesa,
  vremena i prostori.
  Da vežeš svet za svet,
  gde god se kida i raspada.
  I da ne živiš dužnosti,
  nego da źiviš nadahnuća.
  - Mika Antić

04. Family & Friendship Ties 

For family or friends reunions, heritage albums, or 'Year in Review' books.

• "The roots of our family tree run deep and full of love."

• "Home isn’t a place, it’s these people."

• "A year in the life of the [Last Name] family."

• The best things in life
  are the people we love,
  the places we’ve been,
  and the memories
  we’ve made along the way.

• Life’s greatest blessing is the people we share it with.

• Prijateljstvo se ne biram ono biva ko zna zbog čega, kao ljubav. - Meša Selimović
  

• Nothing is ever really lost
  as long as we remember it
