Your wedding is already filled with love — and with all the stories that brought you here
On one of the most important days of your life, Pink Poetry by Michele, based in Burbank, CA, finds the heart in those stories, past, present, and future, and turns them into art — one guest, one conversation, and one original poem at a time. At the heart of the experience is Michele's signature poet-in-residence station, centered around her vintage pink typewriter.
Guests are welcomed into a brief, thoughtful conversation and invited to share a memory, a moment from the celebration they love, or a hope for the couple that matters to them. Michele listens for the emotional thread, then composes an original poem live — using imagery, rhythm, and meaningful detail to capture something true.
Every poem is individually written in real time, then typed on curated specialty paper and beautifully presented for the guest to carry home. The experience is quietly captivating to watch and deeply personal to receive: part live artistry, part meaningful guest connection, and far more lasting than a traditional wedding favor.
In private consultation with the couple, the experience can be shaped around a custom arrangement designed for your celebration — or simply allowed to unfold live throughout the night. One guest at a time, the memories, laughter, and wishes surrounding you become part of the art of the day.
Live poetry can be woven naturally into a cocktail hour, reception, welcome gathering, rehearsal dinner, shower, or intimate wedding weekend. Each experience is thoughtfully tailored to the setting, atmosphere, guest count, and rhythm of the celebration.
For couples seeking a more custom literary experience, select wedding collections may also include story discovery, a commissioned keepsake poem for the couple, support with vows or meaningful remarks, original wording for programs or keepsake booklets, custom paper curation, and a display-ready presentation. Michele can refine words already begun or help develop them through conversation — always preserving the couple's natural voice.
Michele is a writer, creative consultant, and experience designer with more than 20 years of storytelling, creative development, and production experience across animation and themed entertainment, including production management roles at Walt Disney Animation Studios. She brings that seasoned understanding of story, emotion, and guest experience to every wedding collaboration.
For couples who want their celebration to feel more personal — and to give their guests something created with genuine care — Pink Poetry by Michele offers a lasting keepsake of the stories already surrounding them.
