Frequently Asked Questions

Which sources can I import contacts from in WeddingKart?

You can import from your phone's contact book, scan business cards, upload files, and pull in email address books. The platform consolidates all these into a single guest list so you never end up with duplicate invite entries.

Can I create separate guest groups for different wedding events?

Yes. WeddingKart lets you create custom groups with personalised labels — for example, a family-only Haldi list, a friends-and-colleagues Sangeet list, and a combined Reception list. Guests can appear in multiple groups as needed.

How does bulk WhatsApp invitation sending work?

Once your guest groups are set, select the group and hit send. WeddingKart routes the messages in batches that stay within WhatsApp's limits, so no contact gets left out and your personal number isn't flagged for spam.

Is there a limit on how many guests I can add to my list?

WeddingKart is built for large Indian wedding guest lists that often run into hundreds or even thousands of people. The platform handles the scale, and the bulk-send feature keeps up with however long your list grows.

Can I track RSVPs through WeddingKart?

Yes. WeddingKart includes built-in RSVP tracking alongside the guest list, so you can see who has confirmed, who is pending, and get an accurate headcount before finalising catering and seating arrangements.

Founder, Weddingkart

Mayank Jaiswal founded Weddingkart to fix a problem Indian weddings have quietly accepted for decades: guest management is chaos. Paper lists, scattered WhatsApp groups, missed RSVPs, unclear headcounts for the caterer, and an event manager drowning in follow-ups the week of the wedding. Weddingkart turns all of that into a single WhatsApp-native workflow — invites, RSVPs, travel and ID collection, real-time updates — so couples and their planners actually know what’s going on.

Before Weddingkart, Mayank spent over a decade building consumer internet products in India. At Nykaa he was named the company’s first Distinguished Engineer — its highest individual-contributor role — after leading engineering there as Director. He drove architecture on the Retina platform team and led the Nysaa UAE migration off Shopify onto Nykaa’s infrastructure. Earlier in his career he was part of the engineering team at Saavn during its growth years. He brings that operational, at-scale thinking into an industry that is still, for the most part, run on spreadsheets.

He lives in Gurugram with his wife Sushmita and their son Vigya.
