A "wedding invitation with song" means one of three things in India. Background music from a library (Crafty Art, Canva, WedMeGood). A song you choose put behind the video (VideoGiri, from ₹999). Or a song sung for your wedding with your names in it, which is what ShaadiMode's Gaana Invite does, with each guest called by name in their own copy. Choose by whether you want a familiar song or one about the two of you.
ShaadiMode is our product. We have placed it where the facts put it, and every detail about another company comes from its own website, checked on 4 October 2026. Prices change, so check their site before you buy.

ShaadiMode is ours. Gaana Invite makes a short vertical film, from about 72 seconds to two minutes, set to a song sung for your wedding: your names, both families, every function with its date, the venue and the city. You listen and approve the song before its film is made. Then every guest gets their own copy: in the break after the first verse a voice calls them by name, and their film keeps only the functions they are invited to. There are ten styles, all original music: a Bollywood-style romantic duet, Rajasthani folk, a Sufi qawwali, a 90s duet, a Ganesh nimantran geet, two friends' party songs, Hinglish lo-fi, an English acoustic duet and big-band swing.
Plus (₹2,999) includes 1 song and Signature (₹6,999) includes 3, each with every guest called by name; any other song is ₹499. On the free plan you can hear the first 30 seconds of your own song. Where it falls short: you can't choose a film song you already know, because every Gaana song is our own.
A video file sent on WhatsApp plays its sound when the guest taps play. A link that opens a web page in WhatsApp's browser can't start sound on its own, because phone browsers block autoplay with sound until the person taps. Good invitation websites ask for that one tap at the start. Either way, the guest is in control of the sound.
Film songs belong to music labels. Some makers will put one behind your video at your request; ShaadiMode's Gaana songs are original music made for ShaadiMode, so there is no label's song in them.
Yes, on ShaadiMode's Gaana Invite: each guest's copy calls them by name in the break after the first verse. That is included with Plus (1 song) and Signature (3 songs). A ₹499 song on the free plan is one film for all guests, without names.
Long enough for the names, the functions and the venue, and short enough to finish before attention drifts: most are between 30 seconds and two minutes. Gaana Invite films run from about 72 seconds to two minutes, depending on how many functions the guest is invited to.
All ten Gaana songs have a sample film made for a sample family, so you can hear the name call. Hear the ten songs
