Hello, I'm
Erik

I built a wedding website for the love of my life — and fell in love with the process. Now I help other couples do the same.

Erik, founder of Your Wedding Story

Built out of love.
Born to help others.

I'm Erik — I'm Dutch, my partner Ana is Brazilian, and this September we're getting married. With friends and family spread across continents, we needed a way to bring everyone together and make sure every guest, in every country, felt truly welcomed and informed.

We knew a website was the answer. But finding something Ana truly loved? That was another story. So I did what any smitten partner would do — I built one for her. Fully custom, multilingual, and designed with every detail she deserved.

I honestly loved every moment of creating it. And somewhere between the design choices and the late-night code sessions, I realised something: I would love to help other couples do exactly the same. To have a website that is truly theirs — not a template, not a compromise, but something that reflects the beauty and uniqueness of their love story.

And that's how your-wedding-story.com was born. 💕

My design philosophy

I
Intention over quantity

Every font, every colour, every word on your website is chosen with purpose. Nothing generic, nothing by accident.

II
Beauty in the details

The moments that take your breath away are rarely grand. I obsess over the subtle touches that make your site feel truly extraordinary.

III
A calm, guided process

You're already planning the most important day of your life. Working with me should feel easy, reassuring, and even joyful.

A little of my journey

The problem
A Brazilian bride, a Dutch groom & guests on four continents

Ana and I come from different worlds — literally. With family and friends in Brazil, the Netherlands and beyond, we needed a way to communicate our wedding to everyone, in their language, beautifully.

The search
Nothing felt right for Ana

We looked everywhere. Every website builder we found was template-driven, generic, and nothing that felt truly special. Ana deserved better. So did our guests.

The turning point
I built one for her 💕

From scratch. Fully custom. Multilingual. Designed around our story, our colours, our guests. And I loved every single moment of making it.

Your Wedding Story — helping couples do the same

That experience showed me what was possible — and what was missing. Now I create bespoke, fully custom wedding websites for couples who believe every detail matters. Your story deserves to be told beautifully.
