The same wedding everyone plans just bigger, and with a few rules the usual tools have never heard of.

From day one

A checklist that already knows your wedding

You don't start from a blank page. Tell us it's a Jewish wedding and the list arrives seeded: ketubah, chuppah, the aufruf, the week of sheva brachos, alongside the venue, photographer and vows arc every wedding has. Grouped by months out, so you only ever look at what's next. Split each task between you, your chosson or kallah, and both mothers, and give a gentle nudge to whoever's gone quiet.

• Seeded with your tradition's tasks, not a generic Western list
• Grouped by months-out: 12+ months down to the week of
• Assign to you, your partner, Mom, Dad, or your planner
• One-tap reminder when someone's behind
• Re-seed any time; export to a spreadsheet for your planner

Never the wrong date

It won't let you book on Shabbat or Yom Tov

Pick your date and we check it against the Hebrew calendar before the invitations go out. A hard stop on Shabbat and Yom Tov, a gentle flag on Chol HaMoed, the Three Weeks and Sefirat HaOmer. Lag B'Omer and Yom Yerushalayim stay clear. Your wedding date shows in the Hebrew calendar too.

Seating, first

The seating plan that usually eats a week, done in an afternoon

Every wedding has the family that can't sit together and the cousins who must. Yours also has a men's side, a women's side, a head table, and four hundred names instead of a hundred and twenty. Set the mechitza, drag guests to tables, keep families together or apart on purpose, and watch the room come together in an afternoon instead of weeks of spreadsheets.

• Separate seating: men's side, women's side, set in a click
• Drag-and-drop tables for 400+ guests
• Keep families together and apart, on purpose
• See unplaced guests at a glance
• Updates as RSVPs and dietary needs change

Zola charges $14.99 for a worse seating chart. Here it's included, mechitza and all.

Works with your people

Your rav, your caterer, your planner, all in the loop

Festela handles the site, the guests, the RSVPs, the seating and the day-of timeline. Share a read-only schedule with the wedding party, another with your vendors, and hand the caterer its kosher counts. We don't find your rav or your caterer; we make sure everyone has what they need on the day.
