ShellNewHandler VS Cedar Invites

Cedar Invites's answer:

Most invitation sites stop at the venue door. We stay for the whole night, and for the day after. Your guests get their own invitation link with their name on it, in Arabic, French or English. They RSVP in one tap, then use one QR code at the venue to find their table. During the party they share photos to a live gallery, find every picture they appear in with face search, and see them on the Live Wall. The next morning, a thank-you video reaches every guest. None of the Lebanese invitation platforms we know of does the night itself.

Cedar Invites's answer:

Because you’d rather be a guest at your own wedding than the person running it. With other platforms you still chase RSVPs, redraw tables every time a family confirms two and comes with five, and beg 300 people to send you their photos. With us, the guest list, seating, door, gallery and memories live in one link. Bought one by one, the features in our Full Experience package are worth $412. The package costs $250, with no per-guest fees. And we’re with you before, during and after the night. Don’t worry, we got you.

Cedar Invites's answer:

Couples planning a wedding of 100 guests or more, in Lebanon or in the Lebanese diaspora, from Beirut to Dubai. They want a wedding their guests talk about, but they don’t want to spend the night managing it. Usually they decide together, about two or three months before the big day, often after attending a wedding that used Cedar. We also work with wedding planners and hosting companies who need a calm, queue-free check-in at their events.

Cedar Invites's answer:

In two years, I was invited to more than 20 weddings. Some of those couples were very close to me, so I heard everything that came before the night: guest lists that changed every week, tables redrawn again and again, and the same message after every wedding: “please send me your photos.” Most guests never did.

Then, wedding after wedding, I saw the same scene at the door. Guests dressed for the night, waiting in a queue while a hostess searched for their names on two or three sheets of paper. That was their first impression of a wedding the couple had spent months preparing. I told myself: I can fix this. That’s how Cedar Invites was born in 2025.

Cedar Invites's answer:

Cedar Invites is a mobile web platform built with the couple dashboard. Invitations open in any phone browser, so there’s no app to download and no account to create. We use Google Maps for venue directions, WhatsApp for sending each family their personal link, QR codes for the seat finder and event-day access, and AI face recognition so guests can find every photo they appear in.
