Wedding website for a Vancouver guest list
Vancouver lists run past the peninsula. Richmond sits by the airport, Surrey is south of the Fraser, Burnaby is between them, and the North Shore is a bridge. Guests treat those as different trips, then arrive late because a screenshot never named the side of the river.
Rain is the other planning fact. July and August are the drier stretch, and a shower is still ordinary. From autumn through spring the city is wet, and someone who packed for a Calgary or Toronto summer will be cold. Write the coat note before the group chat turns it into a joke.
Richmond, Surrey, Burnaby, and the North Shore
Richmond weekends are often Chinese or South Asian, close to the airport, with a tea gathering and a banquet that are not the same reply. Surrey weekends are often Punjabi, and a night-before gathering is a different day from the ceremony. Burnaby brings Chinese, Korean, and Filipino households who will not cross the region twice on a hunch. The North Shore is its own drive. Name the day and the district.
Friends landing at the airport need that district before they clear the terminal. Family from Hong Kong, Manila, Punjab, Delhi, or Taipei book early. A save-the-date and the invitation can share one link, so the page used for the flight is the page used to answer. A guest is included only in the gatherings meant for them, and six is the maximum. A coworker at the banquet should not be asked to decode a family rite.
The chat they already answer in
For many Chinese, South Asian, Filipino, and Korean households the yes happens on WhatsApp, inside a thread that is already comparing outfits. A personal message, with that guest's name and a photo, belongs in the thread. Email is still the right note for coworkers. An older relative may text or call instead.
Send on WhatsApp from WeddingBeacon, or open WhatsApp on your phone with the link filled in. You pick English or French separately for each household. When the answer is spoken, enter who is coming, the meal, and dietary needs, plus a song if you want one. Lists from Excel or CSV have their numbers cleaned, which helps when Richmond, Surrey, and overseas codes are jumbled together.
The starting plan
A Vancouver page can open on the starting plan: the website, RSVP, seating, guest passes, and card gifts, plus 30 WhatsApp messages, 50 email invites, and 10 AI answers.
Free to start.
Pacific time, a coat, and the door
Times stay on the Pacific zone you choose, with the country labelled, so a phone in Toronto or Hong Kong does not rewrite the hour. The calendar link follows the wedding. There is a catalog of 30+ designs. Put the coat note beside the times, and say whether the day is south of the Fraser or across the bridge.
Tables are on every plan, and a pass can name the table. A floor-plan drawing is in Standard. A yes can issue a QR pass for that named guest. The check-in role works from a phone and can undo a mistake. Editors can help you build the page. Bea waits for Confirm before a send, a publish, or a delete. A Zola, The Knot, or Joy link is previewed first at a cost of 10 AI credits. Guests can leave a note or a photo on the day.
What the table calls a gift
A cash gift in Richmond or Surrey is often discussed in Canadian dollars, while the plan and card gifts are charged in US dollars: $79, $149, and $649, each a single payment. Season is five weddings sharing a message balance. The guest picks an amount and writes a note. You see the name and the total after the payout bank is connected. A honeymoon fund can live on the site.
Still missing answers
Standard and Season send a confirmation, reminders only to people who have not replied, a day-of note, and a thank-you. That helps when a Surrey night-before and a Richmond banquet are both unfinished.
Calgary, Toronto, and the Canada page
Calgary is a flight, not a wetter version of this coast, and Toronto is three hours ahead on the clock. Those guides sit next to this one. The Canada page is where the zones, including the Saskatchewan exception, are explained in one place.
FAQ
Can a Richmond tea gathering and a Surrey banquet be answered separately?
Make them separate events and put a time on each, so nobody crosses the Fraser on a guess. A guest only sees the events you invited them to.
Will reminders skip people who already answered?
Reminders on Standard and Season go only to guests still outstanding, with a confirmation, a day-of note, and a thank-you.
Do coworkers and relatives need two systems?
Coworkers and relatives each get a page of their own. Use WhatsApp, email, or your own phone, and type in a call or a text yourself. One household can receive English and another French.
What does a Vancouver wedding website cost?
One payment, in US dollars: $79, $149, or $649. Canadian dollars can stay the way you talk about a gift. Free to start.
