FAQs

What is a star map gift?

A star map is a print of the night sky exactly as it looked from a specific place on a specific date and time, such as the night you met, your wedding night or the night a baby was born. It usually includes the date, the place and a short message.

How much does a custom star map cost at Kemuva?

The custom star map is $15, or $29 bundled with voice wave art. The Our night sky poster with your photos is $24. All are digital files you can print at any size.

How fast will I get it?

You get a preview within about 24 hours of sending the date, place and text, with one round of revisions, then a print-ready high-resolution file.

What if I don't know the exact time?

That is fine. Choose an approximate time, such as 9 pm for an evening event. The sky changes slowly, and the print still shows the stars over that place on that night.

What size should I print it?

Common choices are 8x10, 11x14, 12x16 and A3. The file is high resolution and designed to print cleanly at standard frame sizes.

Is a star map a good anniversary gift?

Yes. It is one of the most popular anniversary gifts because it ties a shared memory to a place and date, and it works for any anniversary year.
