Challenges
80% of young adults struggle with guest list decisions in wedding planning
Malaysian weddings today tend to be smaller and more intimate than before. Unlike in the past, where inviting many people was a tradition, now younger generations prefer smaller weddings to save money and invite only close friends and family, partly because loved ones aren't all in one place anymore and living expenses are higher
Respondents of my surveys said that they find it most challenging to determine their guest list and manage pax that align with their budget and venue limitations while avoiding conflicts with parents and relatives.

approach
Centralize the guest list creation, invitation sending, and RSVP management into one seamless environment
By developing a user-friendly platform that allowed hosts to create personalized guest lists and send invitations directly from the same space, I aimed to eliminate the pain points associated with the traditional methods of using Excel sheets and third party digital invites.

Transforming wedding planning experience from burdensome tasks to delightful celebrations
I envisioned a tool that not only streamlined the process but also brought a sense of joy to users. Taking cues from Mailchimp's simplicity, Flodesk's elegance, and Canva's joyfulness, I set out to create an intuitive and visually pleasing platform
A centralized dashboard that provides a comprehensive overview of the event and guest status in both desktop and mobile.

Recapturing the tradition of the old days by sending personalized invitations to close friends and families - easy to RSVP
In the past, wedding invitations were made in a personal and special way—handwritten and customized for each guest. To revive this tradition, I've created an experience where hosts can send invitations directly to guests from the guest list, eliminating the need for guests to fill in tedious information.
This not only saves time but also adds a personalized touch that enhances the guest experience.

The kind of project that gives me incomparable joy and growth
“I’m able to reconnect with old friends again”
Gathering feedback from users, we've received heartfelt thanks for our small team's ability to redefine how people celebrate their special occasions with their loved ones.
While this endeavor is deeply personal, it's also been an incredible learning journey. In the process, I've delved into diverse areas of UX such as product development, honed my skills in UX writing and marketing, and gained invaluable insights by directly engaging with users as their support.
The ability to experiment and actively engage with our users has not only empowered us to innovate but has also fostered a profound sense of empathy, enabling us to better understand and cater to their needs
