System for issuing and developing investiture certificates and other documents for highlighting and memorializing significant and special life events, and for conferring titles or standings. A series of logically connected/hyperlinked options permit the user to customize an investiture certificate or other document issued by the system. Such investiture certificates/documents may be produced on a variety of materials, including regular or fine paper, parchment, wood, glass, plastic, leather, etc. A first level of options includes borders, text, designs, and materials, and, optionally, surface finish. Second level options are tailored to each of the first level options. The present system produces a palpable representation of legally conferred titles and standings, and may only be issued upon the authorization of a person or entity having the authority to do so.
