Wedding website
A wedding website with RSVP, dressed as an invitation.
Every Dawatnama card is a page of its own: programme, maps, countdown, gallery, replies and a private link for each family. It opens from WhatsApp, in English and Urdu, and the elders still get an envelope to open.
- A link you can share with anyone
- Guest list & headcounts
- Share on WhatsApp
- Works on every phone
- Edit any time
What is on it
Everything a guest asks, answered before they ask.
RSVP that gets answers
One tap on the card: coming or not, and how many. No app, no login, no form the elders will not fill in. Totals sit in your panel.
The programme
Dholki, Mehndi, Nikah, Baraat, Walima: each with its date, time, venue and dress code, in the order the week runs.
Maps and calendar buttons
Every venue has a map pin that opens directions, and a button that saves the function to the guest's calendar.
Countdown
The days to the first function, ticking on every guest's phone from the moment they open it.
Private guest links
A page for each household with their name, their seats and only the functions they are invited to.
Gallery, families, FAQ
Your photos, both families with tap-to-call numbers, and a short FAQ: parking, gifts, children, dress code.
English and Urdu
Labels switch with one button; your own wording in either language, or both.
Music and an envelope
A wax seal or a ribbon that the guest opens, and a song that plays while they read. It is still an invitation.
Video, PDF or a website
The three things sold as a digital invitation.
A video and a PDF are files. A wedding website is a place. Here is what that changes for the guest.
| Video invite | PDF / image | Dawatnama | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Guests reply | No | No | Yes, on the card |
| Directions | Typed by the guest | Typed by the guest | One tap to the map |
| A changed venue | Re-send the file | Re-send the file | Fixed once, everywhere |
| Per-guest version | No | No | Private links by name |
| Opens without an app | Needs a player | Needs a viewer | Any browser |
| Looks like an invitation | Yes | Yes | Yes, envelope and all |
The long version is in what to check before you buy a digital invitation.

Pakistan pays in rupees; families abroad have their own pages in pounds and dollars.
Questions
Answered before you ask.
What is a wedding website?
A page of its own for the wedding, with everything a guest needs: the programme, venues with maps, a way to reply, the couple's story or photos, and practical notes. Every Dawatnama card is one, dressed as an invitation.
Is this different from a digital invitation?
Most 'digital invitations' in Pakistan are a video or a PDF. A wedding website is a live page: it knows today's date, its map opens directions, and its RSVP button collects replies. Dawatnama is the second kind, with the envelope and the song of the first.
Do I need a domain name?
No. Your card has its own address on dawatnama.store from the start. If you want your own domain, you can connect one from your settings and the original link keeps working.
Can guests abroad use it?
Yes. It opens in any browser, in English or Urdu, and the dates stay exactly as you wrote them: the day and the clock time at the venue. Families in the UK, Canada and the US pay in their own currency on the country pages.
How do RSVPs work?
The guest taps 'coming' or 'not coming' and the number of people. Replies land in your panel with totals per function. If somebody phones instead, you can enter their reply yourself.
What does it cost?
One price for the card, from Rs. 1,999, paid once, with 3 months of access and editing. Private guest links are an optional pack. There is no subscription and no charge per guest.
