Do you calculate the miles between cities for us?

Yes — just tell us the two cities and we'll add the exact mileage (great-circle distance) to the canvas. We can also calculate kilometers or do both. You'll see the number in the free 24-hour preview before we print.

Can we include the date we closed the long distance?

Absolutely. Most LDR-history canvases include the date one of you moved or your wedding date as the 'gap closed' marker. It typesets beautifully along the bottom, often paired with 'X miles. One forever.'

Why LDR couples need a different anniversary gift

You spent two, three, sometimes five years counting miles. You memorized the airport layout. You learned which time of night your partner was probably still awake. Most anniversary gifts ignore that entire chapter — they start at "wedding day" and pretend the long-distance years didn't happen. But those years are where the relationship was actually built. They deserve the wall, not the photo album in the closet.

What goes on the LDR-history canvas

Two city names — Boston / Austin. Edinburgh / Sydney. Lagos / Toronto.
Exact miles apart — we look it up if you don't know. "4,217 miles." It hits.
Date you closed the gap — the day one of you moved, or your wedding date.
Song lyrics — the song you played on long drives or video calls.
Optional flight count — "37 flights. One forever."

The songs our LDR couples pick most

Top picks from 2026 LDR-history orders: A Thousand Years, Bless the Broken Road, Make You Feel My Love, Can't Help Falling in Love, At Last, and Tennessee Whiskey. The Broken Road lyric — "every long lost dream led me to where you are" — gets requested more than any other single line on our LDR canvases.

Layout patterns that work

We've printed enough of these to know what reads beautifully on a wall and what looks like a slide deck. The cleanest layout: two city names top corners, miles centered between them, song lyrics filling the middle, anniversary date along the bottom. Optional: a small soundwave of the chorus running like a horizon line through the middle.

Free preview before we print

Our 24-hour designer preview shows you the exact layout, font, and color before anything prints. Unlimited revisions are free. Free hanging frame ships with every canvas. 5-7 day standard, 2-3 day rush.
