Dubai weddings are often large, multi-day and international. Managing hundreds of guests by spreadsheet and phone calls gets stressful fast.
Invitations and RSVPs
- Digital invitations with a unique link per family or guest
- RSVP on WhatsApp, with plus-ones and dietary needs
- Automatic reminders for guests who haven't replied
- Separate lists for mehndi, ceremony and reception
Seating
Group families and friends and let a planner do the first draft. Try the free seating chart planner. Send each guest their table number on WhatsApp the day before.
Arrival
A welcome desk that checks names off on a tablet, instead of a printed list, means the hosts know who has arrived. Face check-in for close family and VIPs makes arrival feel personal.
On the day
Live WhatsApp updates for timings, transport from hotels and parking. A photo gallery where guests find their own photos with a selfie is a lovely extra.
