Wedding guest questions · For the host

Who do we call if we have a question or get lost on the day?

“Wedding day pe kisko call karein?”

Give guests one or two names and numbers for the day: people who are not the couple or the parents, and who know the plan, like a cousin, a friend or a planner. Put them on the invitation, say who handles what, and make sure they have the schedule, the venue pins and the rooming list.

What to tell guests

How should you answer it?

  • Choose people who will keep their phones on and won't be on stage.
  • Split the jobs if you can: one for directions and cars, one for rooms.
  • Give them the full schedule, every venue pin, the rooming list and the drivers' numbers.
  • Put their names on the invitation, so guests don't call the bride's mother.

On ShaadiMode

Can someone answer this for you on WhatsApp?

ShaadiMode's guest helper answers this from your invitation on WhatsApp. The helper answers from the contacts on your invitation. When it can't answer something, it sends the guest your first contact as a card they can tap to call. It comes with Signature, where it either drafts the reply for you to approve or sends it on its own when it is sure. How the guest helper works

Who should be the point of contact for guests at a wedding?

Someone close to the family who knows the plan and won't be busy in the rituals: a cousin, a friend or a planner. Two is better than one.

Should I put phone numbers on a wedding invitation?

Put the day-of contacts' numbers, not the couple's or parents'. Guests will call someone either way; this makes it the right someone.
