For the wedding party

Be the best friend, not the help desk.

Textual is for the maid of honor, best man and everyone holding the weekend together. The couple’s texts answer guests’ questions before they’re asked, and one link gathers every photo, so you get to enjoy the party.

The wedding weekend

Your Saturday, off duty.

The guest questions are answered and the photos gather themselves. What’s left is the part you’ll remember.

  1. A bridesmaid fastens the bride’s shoe while another settles her veil in the hotel suite.

    Sat 12:30 PM

    Hair runs late. One text and the party knows.

  2. The maid of honor bustling the bride’s train on the dance floor.

    Sat 8:50 PM

    The bustle, the bouquet, the lipstick. The good stuff.

  3. Guests along the reception table holding up their phones to film the toast.

    Sat 9:40 PM

    The toast, caught from forty angles.

  4. Three bridesmaids dancing barefoot among sparklers, one waving her heels overhead.

    Sat 11:40 PM

    The album link goes out. You keep dancing.

  5. Friends in sunglasses at brunch the next morning, laughing at photos on a phone.

    Sun 11:00 AM

    Brunch. Every photo in one place, nobody chased.

Saturday · 12:30 PM

Plans change. You send one text.

The couple can add you as a helper. Send an update from their number to exactly the right people, then get back to the champagne.

Sat 11:40 PM · To everyone

Send us your candids. The blurry ones, the dance-floor ones, all of them.

Saturday · 9:40 PM

Give the toast. Skip the photo chase.

After the last dance, every guest gets the album link. By brunch every photo is in one place, including forty of your toast.

The guest list

Your people, in their places.

Seat your guests into groups the way you would at dinner. Each text goes only to the people it’s for, so nobody gets a shuttle reminder they don’t need.

For your guests

Kind to everyone’s phone.

One number to save
Every text comes from the same number, with a contact card so guests know it’s you.
Only what matters
Around five texts a weekend, each one something a guest would otherwise have asked.
Your words, approved
Nothing sends until you’ve read it, and you can change any message right up to the minute.
Easy to step away
Any guest can reply STOP and they won’t hear from us again.

A few good questions.

What does Textual do for the wedding party?

It takes the two jobs that never end. Guests get the details by text before they think to ask you, and one link gathers every photo into the couple’s album.

What else is on a maid of honor’s list?

Plenty: the dress, the shower, the bustle, the toast. Our maid of honor duties checklist has every one, for the best man too.

Can the couple add us as helpers?

Yes. The couple can add the maid of honor, best man or any friend by phone number, so you can change a time or send an update for them.

Does the wedding party need an app?

No. Updates arrive as ordinary texts, and adding photos to the album takes one tap.

Who pays for Textual?

The couple: $299 once for the whole wedding, texts and album included. It also makes a very good gift from the wedding party.

Your weekend starts here.

Bring your website and your guest list. We’ll help with everything in between.
