The modern-day mixtape
The perfect Valentine's gift for 2021
The mixtape was the ultimate token of nineties affection
Every man or women over the age of 30 will remember the warm, fuzzy glow they felt when they listened to the songs carefully selected for them by their beau. As time has moved on - and technology too - mixtapes have been left behind. Abandoned to the past - along with Tamagotchis, hair mascara and high-heeled trainers.
How can we share our love in the age of technology?
What token of affection can we give to the one that we love that will create that same warm fuzzy feelingthat the mixtape of the 1990s had nailed?
Enter online video messages...
Not naughty Snapchats and filtered Instagram videos but well planned and perfectly personalized online video messages - that compile heartfelt messages and fond memories for the one you love.
Valentine proposal ideas:
The "ring in a champagne glass" proposal is so overdone and the romantic getaway or even going out for dinner is restricted.Could you create the ultimate proposal using online video messages?
Imagine your bride or groom sitting next to you watching a compilation of videos from all your friends and family. Each contributor tells your partner what they love about you both and what they think makes you an ideal couple.
Then boom! Right at the end, your video comes on with a sign saying "Will you marry me?" they turn to look at you and you're there down on one knee, diamond ring extended...
Now that's a story to tell the kids about.

Notes to editors:
- Kate Johnson founded SayIt along with her husband Lee just a few months ago in response to her son's 7thbirthday in lockdown. Disappointed he couldn't see anyone or go anywhere Kate requested friends and family to send birthday messages by video. Although the result was fantastic and loved by her son the process had been really difficult and time-consuming. The idea to create a simple to use platform for people to create their own video gifts was born.
- Kate: "SayIt is already so much more than a simple birthday gift. Our mission is to spread joy, love and kindness and encourage people to "say it out loud" tell people what they mean to them, tell them they are proud of them, tell them they love them. These video gifts will strengthen and deepen our connections with those that matter most no matter where they are in the world"
