What Our Customers Say

“I bought this for my wife and to say she loved it would be an understatement. When she opened it and saw that she was front-page news, the look of joy and delight was worth $1m. The amazement continued not only as she read the article about her but also the numerous contributions from family and friends. Thank you BTFP.”

John, wife’s birthday

“I think the gift was great. I liked all the mini messages and also the stories that were written about my dad. I think it was very creative and something different than a usual card.”

Keeley, father’s 50th birthday

“Thank you so much for the incredibly creativity that went into bethefrontpage. It truly means more to me than I can put into words. Your attention to detail has made this gift so special.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it hard to make?

Not at all. Our system is designed to be effortless and guides you through every step. Most people complete their personalised birthday newspaper in under 5 minutes, even if they’ve never designed anything before. Our guided templates handle all the complex layout work, so you just focus on the personal touches that make the gift meaningful.

Does it really only take a few minutes?

Yes, our prewritten headlines & article ‘smart’ templates plus automated personalisation, make it really fast if you want, whilst still allowing you to tweak or write your own headline and article.

How do I get started?
Will it arrive in time?

We offer fast shipping with clear delivery timeframes so their special day is perfect. You’ll see estimated delivery dates before ordering, and we’ll keep you updated every step of the way. For urgent orders, our express delivery option gets your newspaper to you in 1–2 business days from dispatch.

Can I write my own article?

Yes, just keep it to a maximum of around 250-280 words.

What if I don’t have good photos?

Don’t worry. You can preview your newspaper at any point during the creation process, so you’ll see exactly how it looks before you order. Some of the most treasured newspapers we’ve created feature old, vintage photographs and they often look beautiful in print.

What if I don’t like how it turns out?

You’ll see a full preview before ordering, so you can make any changes until you’re completely happy. Plus, we offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If you’re not delighted with your personalised newspaper within 7 days of delivery, contact us and we’ll make it right — whether that means a reprint or a full refund.

Why is this better than a photo book or card?

Photo books are wonderful, but they often end up on a shelf. Our personalised newspapers are designed for display: framed, treasured, shown to every visitor. It’s the difference between a gift they receive and a gift that transforms how they see themselves. The newspaper format makes them feel like the most important person in the world — front-page news.

I’m not good at expressing my feelings. Will this help?

Absolutely. Our guided templates help you say exactly what you want to say. It’s hard to put a lifetime of appreciation into a standard greeting card. A personalised newspaper gives you the space and structure to tell someone why they’re special, with prompts that make it easy to articulate what you feel, even if words don’t come naturally to you.


Our Story

The idea for bethefrontpage began with a simple frustration. 

It all started when our founder, Noel, was searching for a gift for his aunt’s 100th birthday, a particularly special occasion.

Like many before he found that there was very little out there that seemed appropriate for such a significant milestone birthday.

The frustrations of that challenging search was the trigger  a gift that would be worthy of those big, milestone occasions.
