An annual ritual for couples who don't want to rush past each other.

PactPost helps couples slow down once a year, say thank you properly, and make one or two small promises that matter.

Once a year, slow down together

Life moves fast. Between work, daily routines, and endless to-do lists, it's easy for couples to forget to pause and really see each other. The small moments of gratitude get lost in the shuffle, and the promises we mean to keep get postponed indefinitely.

That's why we created PactPost as an annual ritual—a dedicated time each year for couples to slow down, look each other in the eye, and say the things that matter most. Whether you're in the same home or navigating a long-distance relationship, this is your moment to reconnect.

Every December or January, sit down together to write a heartfelt thank-you message to each other, then agree on just 1-3 simple, realistic promises for the coming year. Not grand resolutions, but small commitments that will actually make your relationship stronger.

Two small rituals, one relationship.

Thank You Card

A heartfelt way to acknowledge the big and small ways your partner shows up for you throughout the year.

  • Perfect for expressing gratitude for everyday support
  • Helps you notice and appreciate the little things
  • Creates a beautiful keepsake of your appreciation

New Year Pact

A shared commitment to small, meaningful promises that strengthen your bond in the coming year.

  • Focus on 1-3 realistic promises you'll actually keep
  • Great for New Year's or anniversary rituals
  • Builds accountability and shared intention
