## What the client needed

Most wedding websites make every guest create an account, then let anyone type in a plus-one. Couples end up reconciling duplicate replies in a spreadsheet the week of the wedding.

Simplyweds needed the opposite. Guests should reach the reply form from a printed QR code or invitation code, with nothing to install and no password, and they should only be able to answer for the seats the couple actually reserved. Behind that, the couple and their planner needed one place to run the rest of the wedding.

## What we built

Two halves on one data model. The guest half is a fast, themed wedding site that runs in any phone browser: RSVP by household, per-person dietary and accessibility notes, shuttle seats, a schedule filtered to what each guest is invited to, and moderated photo uploads, in English, Spanish, French, and German.

The planning half is the iOS app. Couples build the site from 23 page types instead of designing from scratch, import households from a spreadsheet, generate a QR code per household, and manage tasks, budget, and guest announcements by email and text. A planner or second admin can be invited to edit alongside them.

Sign in with Apple and Google, universal links that open invitation and dashboard links straight in the app, and camera access for photos are all native. The same codebase serves the web and iOS, which keeps one team shipping both.

## Key features of Simplyweds

### No-account RSVP

Guests reply from a printed QR code or invitation code. No sign-up, no password, nothing to install.

### Locked household seats

A household answers only for the guests you invited. One answer per named guest, never a duplicate.

### 23 ready-made page types

Travel, venue, schedule, hotel blocks, registry, FAQ, and more. Fill in fields instead of designing pages.

### Private planning workspace

Tasks with owners and dependencies, planned vs. actual budget, and a feed of what changed and who opened the site.

### Email and text announcements

Send updates to guests and keep a record of who opted into texts and whether each message arrived.

### AI concierge, admin only

Drafts vendor messages and files tasks from your own guest list and budget. It writes; it cannot send.

## What other businesses can take from it

The strongest product decision was deciding who does not need the app. Guests never install anything, so the App Store app is built entirely for the people doing the planning. Knowing which user gets the native app, and which gets a web link, keeps a build small and adoption high.

Rules the business cares about, like one reply per invited guest, live in the database rather than the screen. That is what lets the same product run safely on the web and on iOS at once.
