Question 1

Is Anvaya built specifically for South Asian weddings?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Anvaya is purpose-built for South Asian weddings. We understand that celebrations like Hindu, Sikh, Muslim, and Pakistani weddings span multiple days with events like mehendi, sangeet, haldi, baraat, pheras, reception, and walima. Every feature — from multi-event management to family collaboration — is designed for the way South Asian weddings actually work.

Question 2

What types of South Asian wedding events can I manage?

Accepted Answer

Anvaya supports every event in your South Asian wedding — mehendi, sangeet, haldi, baraat, ceremony, pheras, reception, walima, and any custom events you add. Each event gets its own guest list, timeline, budget, and RSVP tracking. Whether you have two events or ten, Anvaya keeps everything organized.

Question 3

Is Anvaya really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Anvaya is free to use for your South Asian wedding. Create your wedding, manage guests across every ceremony, track your budget, and publish a beautiful South Asian wedding website at no cost.

Question 4

How is this different from Zola or The Knot?

Accepted Answer

Zola and The Knot are built for single-event Western weddings. Anvaya is the South Asian wedding planner that handles multi-event celebrations natively. Manage mehendi, sangeet, ceremony, and reception — each with its own guest list, timeline, and budget. Most platforms cannot handle this level of multi-event wedding complexity.

Question 5

Can my family help with planning?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. South Asian weddings are a family affair, and Anvaya is built for that. Invite parents, siblings, and wedding planners with role-based access so your entire family can collaborate on guest lists, budgets, and event planning in one place.

Question 6

Do guests need an account to RSVP?

Accepted Answer

No. Guests receive a unique link and can RSVP for each ceremony — mehendi, sangeet, wedding, reception — without creating an account or logging in. Perfect for South Asian weddings with large guest lists.

Question 7

Can I customize my South Asian wedding website?

Accepted Answer

Yes — choose from 10 handcrafted wedding website themes designed to complement South Asian celebrations. Customize every color and font to match your vision. Add your love story, photo gallery, travel info, cultural guide, and more.
