THE LEGACY FILM

Every family has stories worth preserving—and that’s where we come in. Our team comes to your home to interview the storytellers in your family, capturing the laughter, memories, and wisdom that make your story uniquely yours. Then, we weave together your family photos and videos to create a one-of-a-kind film your loved ones will treasure for generations. No two families are the same—and no two Legacy Films are either.

PAST LEGACY FILMS

We celebrated Joan’s 70th birthday with a very special Legacy Film! She tells touching and funny stories about her upbringing, her career, and most importantly, her family. Here’s an excerpt where she shares some wisdom for her children.

What a joy it was to produce this legacy film. Sue told fascinating stories about her travels, her memories of the blitz during World War II, her career, her children, and so much more. To celebrate her 80th birthday, she commissioned this film. We think that's a perfect way to celebrate!

As Lila prepares to say goodbye to family and dear friends, her family commissioned a Legacy Film so they could preserve her stories for now, for later, and for generations. Here’s an excerpt from Lila’s Legacy Film. It was a true privilege to create this for her family.

What a beautiful love story spanning almost six decades. Ted and LaVida's granddaughter commissioned a Why Wait Legacy Film as a Christmas surprise for her entire extended family. We loved meeting these incredible people, listening to their stories and creating something we know their family will treasure for generations.

Shannon is certainly not going down without a fight! This single mother of two shared her favorite stories and moments thanks to a generous gift from another Why Wait Stories client.
