How it works

One concierge remembers, chooses and delivers.

You love your people. You just run out of time. We carry the calendar, the ideas and the errands so the only thing left for you is the credit.

  1. 01

    We learn your people

    Tastes, sizes, dates and what landed last time, kept for every person on your list.

  2. 02

    We plan the year

    Every date mapped ahead, with an idea ready three weeks before you would have thought of it.

  3. 03

    You choose in the portal, or by text

    One tap, or none. We buy it, write the note in your voice, wrap it and deliver it on time.

A preview of the experience

Planned for launch: one reply, and we handle the rest.

Three weeks out. A text with the planned gift and its cost.

"Anything changed?" Asked before every gift, so nothing goes astray.

One reply. YES, a change, or 1, 2, 3 for other ideas.

No reply? The planned gift ships, within the budget you approved.

Membership covers the care. You pay for each gift separately, chosen within the budget you set per person, at cost and never marked up. Every membership is month-to-month. Cancel anytime; moments used before they’re paid for are settled at cancellation. Extra moments are $150 each.

How pricing works

You pay for the care. The gift costs exactly what it costs.

Two simple parts, always kept separate, so you can see exactly where every dollar goes.

1

Your membership

A flat monthly fee for the thinking: remembering every date, choosing the gift and writing the note. Premiere and Ovation add hand wrapping by Shavon. Any delivery costs are shown before ordering.

  • Debut $39 · Premiere $150 · Ovation $350 a month
  • Each tier includes a set number of moments a year
  • Founding-list signup is free. Membership checkout opens at launch.
2

You pay for the gift

Gifts are paid for by you, separately from your membership. Each one is chosen within a budget you set in advance for each person, and passes through at exactly what we pay. No markup, ever.

  • You set a gift budget for each person when you join
  • We never choose anything above it
  • Gift, tax and delivery shown up front
  • Charged only once you say yes, or the planned gift goes ahead

  1. 3 weeks out

    The reminder fires

    Our work starts long before you'd think of it.

  2. Weeks before

    A new job, a move, a loss. We check before every gift.

    You choose, or don't

    The reaction comes back

    You see how it landed, and we learn what they love.

  8. Every quarter

    Your balance note

    Moments used, who's coming up and anyone overlooked.

Systems keep the clock

We’re building the reminders, payment records and private portal to support each occasion, with a person reviewing the important details.

  • Reminders, texts and approvals
  • Secure payments and renewals
  • Your portal and moments balance, double-checked by us
  • Delivery tracking and encore pages

People make the taste calls

Anything that needs a heart or an eye stays with a person. Smart tools may help draft an idea or a note, and a person approves every one before it reaches you.

  • Choosing each gift from what we know about them
  • Every note, written in your voice
  • Hand wrapping, done in careful weekend batches
  • Vetted vendors, test orders and buffer days

Your people's details stay private. We use the details you provide to arrange your gifts and deliveries. Questions about your information? Contact hello@takethebow.com.

The encore

The gift ends. The moment doesn't.

Every gift arrives with a QR code that opens a private page made just for them.

The encore page

Your note, the story behind the gift, a song and an optional video from you.

The reaction

Their thank-you comes straight back to you, so you know how it landed.

The keepsake

One page per person that collects every gift over the years. Premiere and Ovation.

Questions

Good to know

When can I join?

Founding memberships are planned to open January 4, 2027, ahead of our Valentine’s Day launch. Join the founding list for an update before seats open. No payment is collected today.

What is a moment?

One occasion handled from gift selection through the note, wrapping and delivery. Your membership covers the care; the gift itself is paid for separately, within your approved budget.

Who pays for the gifts?

You do, separately from your membership. You set a budget for each person. We show the gift, tax, any delivery cost and any applicable sourcing fee before an order goes ahead.

What happens if I don’t reply?

At launch, a gift may go ahead only under the budget and standing instructions you have already approved. We ask whether anything has changed before each occasion.

Is every gift hand-wrapped?

Debut gifts ship in the store’s gift packaging, with hand wrapping available as an add-on. Premiere includes hand wrapping; Ovation adds our signature keepsake box. Flowers come directly from the florist.

Will they know I used a concierge?

The note is written in your voice and the gift arrives from you. You take the bow.
