Wedding Texting Without the Group Chat

Text your guests from a dedicated wedding number: invitations, RSVP reminders, shuttle times, and day-of changes by SMS and WhatsApp. Unlimited messages, replies in one inbox, and nothing for guests to install.

Send yourself a free test text

Wedding texting is the simplest way to keep a guest list informed. Nearly everyone opens a text within minutes, nobody has to download an app, and a text is where guests already expect logistics to arrive. The catch is doing it from your personal phone: a giant group chat where every reply pings two hundred people, or forty copy-pasted threads where mistakes hide. A wedding texting service gives you a dedicated number, sends each guest their own personalized message, and collects the replies in one place.

What a wedding texting service actually does

You import your guest list once, with each guest tagged by event and side of the family. Then every message is a choice of audience and a choice of channel:

• Send your invitation with a personal RSVP link for each guest
• Remind only the guests who have not replied yet
• Text shuttle pickup times to just the hotel-block guests
• Send a ceremony time change to everyone in one minute
• Reach family abroad on WhatsApp and everyone else by SMS, from the same screen

Guests reply like they would to any text, and the replies land in one inbox instead of your personal phone.

Watch the per-text pricing trap

Most wedding texting services sell buckets of texts: a few hundred messages for one price, a few thousand for more, with replies sometimes costing extra. The math turns against you fast. A 150-guest wedding sending a save the date, an invitation, two RSVP reminders, travel notes, and two day-of updates is over a thousand messages before a single reply. Multi-event weddings double that. Cordially Wed prices the other way: unlimited messages, with the one-time price set by how many unique phone numbers you are texting. You never count texts, and a last-minute change never feels like it costs money to announce.

Texting that knows your RSVP list

A texting tool that cannot see your guest list makes you do the targeting by hand. Because Cordially Wed is also where your RSVPs live, the two work together: the RSVP reminder goes only to guests marked pending, the welcome dinner text goes only to welcome dinner invitees, and when a guest replies yes, their status updates. Your guest list, wedding website, seating chart, and Apple and Google Wallet passes are all included free, so texting is not a separate tool bolted onto your planning.

Built for multi-event weddings

The more events you have, the more texting earns its keep. A multi-day celebration, like a South Asian wedding with a Mehndi, Sangeet, ceremony, and reception, has different guest lists and different timings for each event, often across countries and time zones. Per-event tagging means each update reaches exactly the right list, and WhatsApp support means relatives abroad get it on the app they actually check.

Try it on your own phone first

Cordially Wed is free to set up: import your guests, tag them by event and side of the family, and build your wedding website and RSVP page without paying anything. A one-time payment from $59, sized to how many unique guest phone numbers you are texting rather than your total guest count, unlocks unlimited guest texting for your wedding. No subscription, never per message. You can send yourself a free test message first. WhatsApp and SMS both send from the same place.
