Essential Wedding Guest List App Features (Video)
In this seven-minute guide we walk through the features that actually matter when choosing a wedding guest list app — with special attention to meal preference tracking, the one that quietly decides how easy your menu planning will be. Watch it to learn what separates a purpose-built planner from a plain contact list, and why the answers your guests give end up on the caterer's list.

From meal preferences to printed menu cards
Once your guest list lives in a real planner instead of scattered notes, every meal choice, allergy and special request is stored on the guest who gave it. That is exactly the information a wedding menu needs: you know how many chicken, fish and vegetarian plates to order, which tables need gluten-free alternatives, and what your caterer must double-check before the big day.
Our free, browser-based editor turns those answers into finished stationery. Import your guest list, record meal choices and allergies per guest, then print or export menu cards along with the rest of your wedding paper. Because the menu is built from live guest data, a last-minute change never leaves the kitchen guessing — update the guest, and the list you share with your caterer stays correct.
