Bringing family and friends together for a “memory party” is a fun, meaningful way to celebrate shared experiences. With Kwillt, hosting a virtual memory party is even easier, allowing everyone to contribute their favorite stories, photos, and videos to a shared digital album. Whether you're planning a family reunion, celebrating a milestone, or simply reminiscing about good times you’ve had together, Kwillt Patches help you create a secure archive you can return to over and over again.
Here’s how you can host your own virtual event with loved ones, while making the most of Kwillt’s features.
Before hosting a virtual memory party, choose a date and theme that resonates with your group. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, an anniversary, a graduation, or just want to look back on fond memories, a theme helps guide the contributions. For example, asking everyone to pull together photos and videos of “Grandma and Grandpa’s 50th Anniversary Party,” would be a great way to start a Legacy Patch for one of your grandparents!
Once you've picked a date, send out invitations through your preferred platform—whether it’s Zoom, Google Meet, or another video chat tool—letting everyone know about the event and how they can participate using Kwillt.
Once your date and theme are set, your virtual memory party will come to life through the power of Kwillt and shared digital albums. Thanks to Kwillt’s collaborative nature, everyone you invite to your party will be able to add their own photos, videos, and captions simultaneously. The result will be a dynamic family archive, where memories will be neatly (and securely!) stored in one place for future generations to enjoy.
Over time, your Kwilt Patch will serve as a central hub where everyone can upload content as your family makes new memories. Legacy Patches are typically tied to specific individuals, so you may want to make multiple Patches for various relatives. Kwillt’s user-friendly platform allows family members of all ages to create Patches that are secure and easy to access.
The platform is designed to be intuitive and easy to use, so even your least tech-savvy loved ones can participate. Once your Kwillt Patch is set up, it becomes a lasting archive of your group’s stories, photos, videos, and audio recordings—here, we believe that every memory matters.
When the day of the virtual memory party arrives, gather everyone on your video chat platform and screen share the Kwillt Patch. Each person can take turns presenting their favorite memories or telling stories behind the photos and videos they uploaded. This interactive experience lets everyone relive special moments together, even if you’re all miles apart.
As the virtual memory party unfolds, the real magic happens when everyone begins to share memories and relive moments together. The best part of hosting an event like this is that your family can engage in interactive memory sharing in real time. Whether it’s a funny story you’ve never heard before, a touching video of everyday moments, or a nostalgic photo that has been recently preserved with AI technology, sharing these moments creates a deep bond. By the end of the event, your Kwillt digital archive will have expanded with everyone’s most cherished memories.
Once the party is over, your Kwillt Patch is just beginning. Since the album is hosted securely on the Kwillt platform, it can be accessed anytime, allowing participants to revisit and share memories long after the event. This online timeline acts as a living memory capsule for your family. You can also invite new members to contribute as the years go by – when relatives get married or kids grow up and start adding memories of their own, for instance.
Kwillt is a true living memory capsule. Every photo, video, and story is safely preserved, allowing your group to expand the collection over the coming decades. Hosting a virtual memory party with Kwillt is a fun way to bring people together, whether you're physically apart or celebrating a milestone event. With Kwillt, your memories will not only be celebrated today but safeguarded for years to come.
As virtual memory parties grow in popularity, they’re quickly becoming the go-to way for families to celebrate their stories. Be part of the next big thing now with Kwillt!
