How-To
Wedding Anniversary Status Video: Make One from Your Photos, Free
Last updated: October 2, 2026
An anniversary video needs three things: photos that span the years, one song, and a line that is yours. This guide shows how to put them together in a couple of minutes, for your own anniversary or for your parents'.
Free, no watermark, no login. Your photos never leave your device.
Make an anniversary video →Choosing the photos
The order matters more than the number. A sequence that works for almost every couple:
- One wedding photo.
- One or two photos from the early years: the first home, the first trip.
- One with the children or the wider family, if that is part of the story.
- A recent photo of the two of you.
Old prints can be photographed with your phone. Lay the print flat, stand so your shadow does not fall on it, and hold the phone parallel to the photo.
Step by step
- Open the Free Short Video Maker with the anniversary preset. The Hindi message 'शादी की सालगिरह मुबारक!' is filled in. For English, use the English preset.
- Add the photos in order. You can drag to reorder them.
- Set how long each photo shows. Three seconds suits most videos; use four or five if there are only three or four photos.
- Choose music. Search the free library for "romantic", "love" or "piano", or pick Use your own audio to add a song from your device (MP3, M4A, AAC or WAV, up to 15 MB). You can choose which part of the track plays.
- Write the message and add the names. Gold-yellow or white text with the fade-in animation suits the mood.
- Make the video. It is a vertical 720×1280 MP4 with no watermark.
For your parents' anniversary
This is the most common reason people make one. A few things help:
- Ask relatives for photos a week before. The best old photos are usually in someone else's album.
- Add the number of years to the message: "35 साल, साथ-साथ" or "35 years together".
- Use Fit for old photos. Many are landscape or square; Fit shows the whole photo instead of cropping faces at the edge.
- Send it in the family group first, then post it as a Status.
Adding a video clip
The maker accepts short clips as well as photos. A few seconds from the wedding video, or a clip of the couple cutting the cake this year, sits well between photos. Trim the clip to its best three to five seconds. The clip's own sound is kept and plays with the music.

The same file works as a WhatsApp Status, an Instagram Reel and a YouTube Short, and can be sent in any chat. There is no watermark, so the video shows only your photos and your words.
Frequently asked questions
How many photos should an anniversary video have?
Four to eight. At three seconds each that is a 12 to 24 second video, which people watch to the end.
Can I add both names?
Yes. Type both names in the Name field, for example 'Ravi & Meena', and they appear with the message.
Can I use our wedding song?
Yes, if you have it as an audio file: choose 'Use your own audio'. For a public Reel or Short, a copyrighted song may be muted by the platform; in a private chat or Status it plays normally.
Are my photos uploaded anywhere?
No. The video is made inside your browser and the photos stay on your device.
