Wedding Story Writer Team

Founders of Wedding Story Writer

Michelle McMurray de Luces, Founder & Creative director

Infusing her love for family, weddings, genealogy, and storytelling, she transformed them into a global enterprise. She crafts love stories for clients around the world, merging their tales of love with family history in unprecedented ways.

She's dedicated to immortalizing every love story, diving deep into weddings, intuitively gathering details that transform into cherished storybooks--keepsakes for couples to pass down generations.

She signs her work with a touch of magic, tapping into clients' desires, often with artistic crests and floral designs.

Her journey into weddings started at age three when her mother revealed her 1969 wedding dress from storage, sparking a fascination that led Michelle to request a wedding gown costume for Halloween. For her it was more than a simple dress, it was her princess gown.

Later, Michelle assumed the role of her family’s official genealogist, dedicating countless hours researching lost relatives and solving the puzzle of their heritage. The death of documented history within her own lineage saddened her deeply. Merging these thoughts, she formally introduced Wedding Story Writer in 2013, a concept she had developed over three years during her MBA program. The launch of her “Vow Book” concept instantly gained traction in the wedding industry.

Michelle and her team have scripted stories and created vow books and other wedding heirlooms for numerous celebrity couples in the U.S. Her work has graced the pages of People Magazine, The Knot, Munaluchi Weddings, Inside Weddings, and hundreds of other publications and blogs.

Beyond her studio, she finds joy embarking on family adventures, weight lifting, reading tarot cards, and expanding her collection of treasured perfumes from around the world.
