Wedding website for couples across Canada
A Canadian guest list is often a flight, not a drive across town. Toronto, Calgary, and Vancouver do not share an afternoon, a packing note, or a Saturday plan. Someone who agrees in a family chat still needs the city written down before they book a seat.
Montreal relatives may want French. Colleagues in Ottawa often expect email. Family in India, China, Nigeria, the Philippines, or the UK are already on WhatsApp. One link has to hold the schedule, the dress, and the reply, or the group chat becomes the only copy of the plan.
Three clocks, and one that stays put
Toronto is on Eastern time, Calgary on Mountain, Vancouver on Pacific. Toronto to Vancouver is three hours all year, because those provinces move their clocks together. Calgary sits two hours behind Toronto and one hour ahead of Vancouver.
Most of Saskatchewan stays on Central Standard Time all year, lining up with Calgary in summer and sitting an hour ahead in winter. Pick the wedding's zone. The calendar file keeps that hour for a laptop in Halifax or a phone in Manila.
Toronto, Vancouver, and Calgary
The Toronto guide is for a list split across Brampton, Markham, and North York, where one weekend can mean more than one drive. The Vancouver guide is about rain, the bridge to the North Shore, and the trip south of the Fraser into Richmond and Surrey. The Calgary guide is prairie weather, the highway north to Edmonton, and a city that fills in Stampede week.
Those three pages link back here. Montreal and Ottawa already have pages in the older city set, for a French-and-English household or for family on the Gatineau side. Open those when the celebration is in that city. Open this page when the guest list itself crosses the country.
Where the yes actually lands
WhatsApp is where many immigrant families answer, especially when relatives abroad are already in the chat. Email is what a lot of colleagues open, and a parent may still phone. A spoken yes is not on the list until you enter party size, names, meal, dietary needs, and a song.
Every guest is addressed by name. The message can include a photo and opens only their page. Send it on WhatsApp, by email, or from your own phone. English or French is chosen per household, so a Montreal cousin and a Calgary friend need not share a language setting. Import from Excel or CSV. Phone numbers are cleaned before the send.
The starting plan
From Canada, the starting plan includes the website, RSVP, seating, guest passes, and card gifts, along with 30 WhatsApp messages, 50 email invites, and 10 AI answers.
Free to start.
What has to be on the link
Guests need the schedule, a dress note, travel, a short FAQ, and photos together, plus which airport they are using. The catalog runs to 30+ designs. Tables are on every plan, and the site or the pass can show that table. Drawing the floor plan is in Standard. A QR pass follows a yes. Door staff use a phone, can undo a mistaken tap, and cannot open gifts or change the website.
Editors can work on the page with you. Bea can set up the site and the guest list, and you confirm before a send, a publish, or a delete. A Zola, The Knot, or Joy paste is read as a preview first. Copying across from that preview spends 10 AI credits. Guests can leave notes and photos in the guestbook on the day.
Canadian dollars in the conversation
People will still describe a cash gift in Canadian dollars. Both the plan and a card gift bill in US dollars: Basic $79, Standard $149, Season $649, none of them renewing. Season covers five weddings on one shared message balance. A guest sets the figure and can write a note. You see who gave once a payout bank is connected. A honeymoon fund or a registry link can sit with the gifts.
Nudges after the first invite
Standard and Season add an RSVP confirmation, reminders only for guests who have not replied, a day-of note, and a thank-you. Use them when a Vancouver Friday and a Toronto reception are both missing names.
FAQ
Do Toronto, Calgary, and Vancouver share an hour?
Eastern, Mountain, and Pacific stay apart. The wedding keeps the zone you pick, country label included. Saskatchewan does not move for daylight saving, so a relative there needs the labelled hour.
Who receives an automatic reminder?
Only people who have not replied, and only on Standard and Season, along with a confirmation, a day-of note, and a thank-you. A yes by phone can be entered too.
Can one guest be invited only to the Toronto day?
Split the weekend into as many as six events. A guest replies only on the ones you included, from their own link.
Which currency is the invoice?
You pay once, in US dollars: $79, then $149, then $649. Talking about the gift in Canadian dollars is still fine. Free to start.
