Getting Started as a Couple

Welcome to Wedping! This guide walks you through everything from creating your account to sending your first message to guests.

Step 1: Create Your Account

Head to the Wedping sign-up page and create your account. You'll be asked to choose between signing up as a couple or a planner. Select Couple.

You'll enter your names, your partner's name, and basic event details during onboarding.

Step 2: Set Up Your Event

After signing up, you'll land on your event dashboard. Here you can:

  • Set your wedding date and venue.
  • Add event details like ceremony and reception times.
  • Customize your event settings.

Don't worry about getting everything perfect right away — you can update all of this later.

Step 3: Build Your Guest List

Step 4: Organize with Groups

Once your guests are added, organize them into groups like "Family," "College Friends," or "Bridal Party." Groups make it easy to send targeted messages later.
