About Us

 About Us – The Dreamers Behind DreamyTales

Paul & Marcus from Cologne, Germany - founders with heart

At DreamyTales, we believe that memories are life’s most valuable treasure. They’re what connect us, shape our stories, and give our lives meaning. But all too often, even the most beautiful moments slip away, lost in the rush of everyday life. We—Marcus and Paul from Cologne, Germany—set out to change that.

We first crossed paths in 2022, both searching for something truly meaningful to create. What inspired us? The stories every person carries—those small, magical experiences that make life unique. We asked ourselves: How can you hold on to those memories so they never fade, but instead move you, again and again?

Our answer: Personal keepsakes that are as one-of-a-kind as you are.


Books That Touch the Heart

We hear it all the time: when someone receives a DreamyTales book, it moves them to tears. For us, there’s no higher compliment. We love knowing that, when words fail, our stories and images help people express what’s in their hearts—and bring a little more love into the world.

Every DreamyTales book is truly unique. You tell your story, upload your favorite photos, and even edit every image—no matter which language you speak or which memories you want to share. We believe in celebrating the moments that make your life special—without limits.


People First. Always.

As a young startup from Cologne, we’re excited by what technology can do—but even more passionate about what really matters: people. Artificial intelligence lets us personalize your book in ways that were never possible before. But for us, tech will never replace genuine human connection. At DreamyTales, your story is always at the center.

We partner with printers in Germany and the US who share our values. Our books are made from sustainable, plastic-free materials, and each one is crafted with care down to the last detail. The elegant walnut wood covers turn every book into a meaningful gift—and a beautiful piece of home décor. There’s something special about holding your story in your hands, feeling the wood grain, and experiencing that natural scent. It’s not just a book—it’s a true keepsake.

 

We Celebrate Your Story

Every person is unique. Every relationship. Every memory. That’s why we go above and beyond to make sure every book is as individual as the story it tells—no matter how extraordinary or different your life might be. We celebrate diversity and want to help you show your appreciation in a way that’s truly personal.

What does DreamyTales do?

DreamyTales helps you create the perfect gift: personal, emotional, and unforgettable. With us, unique gifts are born that move people to tears. Whether as a personalized book full of shared memories or as a song that turns your story into music: at DreamyTales, your thoughts become something that truly lasts.

Our gifts are more than just a beautiful object. They are appreciation in its most personal form. You capture what is often lost in everyday life: small gestures, big feelings, special moments. And that’s exactly what makes them so special. Because you’re not giving just anything. You’re giving something that shows:

"I thought of you. Of us. Of our story."

A DreamyTales gift is always a tribute to your time together, an expression of love, gratitude, and connection, and unique because it tells your story exactly.

That makes it probably the most personal gift you can give.

What distinguishes a gift from DreamyTales from other gifts?

A gift from DreamyTales is no ordinary item. It’s a unique, distinctive present that you design entirely yourself. Unlike classic gifts like flowers, vouchers, or perfume, which are often impersonal and quickly forgotten, DreamyTales creates a true one-of-a-kind: emotional, personal, and as individual as the person you’re giving it to.

Whether it’s a birthday gift for Mom, a romantic anniversary present, something special for Dad, or simply a gift for someone close to your heart: with us, you create something that exists only once.

You share stories of moments together, add your own memories, and give the gift a voice that truly comes from you. This turns a simple idea into a personal experience that shows: I really put thought into this.

DreamyTales is for everyone who doesn’t want to just give anything, but something that touches emotionally, preserves memories, and honors the person it’s meant for.

Personal, touching, special.

How personalized are the gifts from DreamyTales really?

Our gifts are as unique as the people you create them for, because they come from your hands, your memories, and your thoughts. To help you capture all of that, we support you every step of the way.

We have developed an editor that makes it easy for you to turn memories, photos, feelings, and everything you've always wanted to say into a truly personal gift.

Our team from Cologne knows how precious memories are because they are what truly lasts. That’s why we founded DreamyTales: to help you capture special moments and turn them into a gift that touches and connects.

We use Artificial Intelligence, but not to replace you. Instead, to empower you. Our AI helps you express things when you might be at a loss for words. It adapts to you, not the other way around. You guide the hand; it is the pen.

AI at DreamyTales means more personality, not less. It’s your tool to create the most beautiful gift you can give someone: one that shows how much they really mean to you.

How can I express my feelings, appreciation, or birthday wishes and turn them into a gift?

Sometimes the right words are missing – even though you feel so much: love, gratitude, connection. This is exactly where we come in. We help you turn everything you want to say into a gift that touches the heart.

In our editor, you can easily write down your thoughts, capture shared memories, add photos, and craft personal messages. This creates a book that makes your feelings visible and tangible – as a birthday gift, thank you, or declaration of love.

Our goal is to help you truly get close to a loved one – with words, images, and moments that belong only to you.

DreamyTales is more than a beautiful product. It is a way to show appreciationwithout needing many words. A way to move someone, bring a smile – and maybe even tears. Because what could be more personal than a gift that says:

“I thought of you. Of everything you mean to me.”

What is the return policy at DreamyTales?

Our products are true one-of-a-kinds – created individually for you, with your story, your words, your moments. Because they are specially made according to your wishes, the statutory return policy for standard products does not apply here. But: If something doesn’t fit or you have a problem with your book, feel free to contact us anytime. Our customer service is personally available for you and will find a solution that really suits you.
