The guest list is where wedding planning gets personal — and complicated. Your side, their side, the cousins your mum insists on inviting, the work friends who may or may not get along with the university friends, the relatives flying in from three different countries who all need to know which events they are attending.
A spreadsheet holds names. AyeDu holds everything else — who is coming to which event, who has RSVPed, who is bringing a plus-one, who has dietary requirements, and who still has not replied despite being asked four times.
Not every guest comes to every event. Some are there for the full weekend. Some are reception only. AyeDu lets you assign each guest to the specific events they are attending so nobody gets an invitation to something they were not meant to come to — and nobody gets left off something they were.
Your planner needs the full list. Your partner needs to see RSVPs. Your mum wants to know who has confirmed from her side. AyeDu lets you share the right access with the right people without anyone overwriting something they should not.
Name, contact details, RSVP status, plus-one, dietary requirements, event assignments — all in one record for each guest. No cross-referencing between tabs. No hunting through emails to find out if someone confirmed.
Your guest list is not just something you update at a desk. AyeDu works on mobile so you can add a name, check an RSVP, or update a dietary note from wherever you are — including at 11 pm when you remember someone was forgotten.
Add guests one at a time or import them directly from your contacts or an existing list. No manual re-entry, no copying and pasting from a spreadsheet you have been maintaining since the engagement.
Assign each guest to the specific events they are attending — Mehndi, Sangeet, Nikkah, reception, or all of the above. Track attendance across every function without switching between lists or losing track of who is going where.
Each guest record includes space for plus-ones, family connections, and guest relationships. You always know who is coming with whom without maintaining a separate note somewhere.
Sort guests into groups that make sense for your wedding — bride's family, groom's family, college friends, work colleagues, out-of-town guests. Filter and view by group whenever you need a specific picture of who is attending.
Record dietary requirements, meal choices, and any specific preferences for each guest. The information is there when your caterer needs it, without you having to compile it from scratch at the last minute.
When something changes, everyone with access sees it immediately. No more two people working from different versions of the same list. No more family members calling to ask if their table has been updated.
Download your guest list at any point and share it with your planner, venue, caterer, or whoever needs it. The export is clean and ready to use — not something that needs reformatting before it is useful to anyone.
Your save the date is the first thing guests see — it sets the tone for the whole wedding. AyeDu lets you design something that actually looks like it belongs to your celebration, not a generic form with your name dropped in. The RSVP works the same way — fully customised, beautifully designed, and built with a calendar so guests can see event dates clearly and respond in one tap. Confirmations, declines, and pending responses all update in real time. No chasing people through WhatsApp to find out if they are coming.
Out-of-town guests have questions your website cannot always answer — flight timing, local transport, hotel proximity, transfer options. AyeDu's travel desk captures every guest's travel details and passes them directly to your concierge so arrivals are coordinated, transfers are arranged, and nobody is left standing at the airport wondering how to get to the venue. Your guests feel looked after before they even arrive.
Link your gift registry directly so guests find it without having to ask. No awkward conversations, no guests defaulting to something random because they could not find the list. It is there, it is clear, and it is connected to everything else.
Your wedding website sits alongside your guest list in the same workspace. When event details change, your site updates with them. When guests RSVP through your website, the responses land directly in your guest list. Your guests get one seamless experience from save the date to the day itself — and you manage all of it from one place.
Start by adding guests manually or importing from your contacts. Use the AyeDu template to bring in an existing list without starting from scratch. Every name lands in one place from the beginning.
Sort guests into family groups, friend circles, or whatever categories make sense for your wedding. Then assign each guest to the specific events they are attending. The Mehndi list and the reception list live in the same place — just filtered differently.
Create a save the date that matches your wedding — your colours, your style, your tone. Send it directly from AyeDu and track who has opened it without following up individually.
Set up your RSVP form with a built-in calendar so guests can see all your event dates clearly before they respond. Responses come in and update your list automatically. You can see exactly where things stand at any point without asking anyone.
Capture travel details from out-of-town guests through the travel desk. The information goes straight to your concierge, so transfers, pickups, and hotel arrivals are handled before anyone touches down.
Guest counts shift. People add plus-ones. Someone cancels a week before. Update any record in seconds, and every connected view reflects it immediately — your planner, your partner, and your venue contact all see the current picture.
When your caterer needs final numbers or your venue needs a breakdown, export the list and send it. Everything is already organised the way they need it.
Your guest list starts as a rough idea and grows into one of the most complicated documents your wedding produces. AyeDu keeps it organised from the first name you add to the final headcount — so nothing gets missed, nobody important ends up on the wrong list, and your guests feel looked after from the moment they receive their save the date.

Most guest list tools are adapted from generic contact managers. AyeDu was built specifically for weddings — multi-day, multicultural, multi-event weddings where the guest list is not just a list of names but a map of who is going where, with whom, what they need when they get there, and how they are getting from the airport to the venue.
A wedding guest list manager is a tool that helps you collect guest details, organise them into groups, assign them to specific events, track RSVPs, manage dietary requirements, and coordinate travel — all in one place rather than across multiple spreadsheets and message threads.
Start by adding names manually or importing from your contacts. Organise guests into groups, assign them to the events they are attending, and set up your RSVP form to start collecting responses. AyeDu structures everything from the moment you add the first name.
Yes. AyeDu shows responses as they come in — confirmed, declined, and still waiting — across each event you have planned. You always know where things stand without chasing anyone.
Each guest record in AyeDu includes a plus-one field. Extra guests are tied directly to the main invitee so everything stays grouped and nothing clutters the main list.
Yes. Each guest can be assigned to any combination of events — just the Haldi, just the reception, or every function across the full weekend. The assignment travels with the guest record so you always know who is attending what.
Yes. Export your list at any point and share it with your venue, caterer, planner, or anyone else who needs it. The export is clean and ready to use without any reformatting.
The travel desk captures travel details from out-of-town guests — arrival times, flight information, transfer needs — and passes them directly to your concierge. It means arrivals are coordinated in advance rather than managed in a panic on the day.
