    Last updated

    Is there a monthly fee?

    Not with txt.wedding. It is $1 per guest, one time, and nothing recurring. TextMyGuests charges $2 per month for each month of your paid event, on top of the message bundle.

    Do I need an app?

    No. txt.wedding works in any browser on any device, and you can send by texting your wedding number. Guests never need an app with either service.

    How do guests get on the list?

    Share a QR code or link and guests sign themselves up in seconds, which works well at engagement parties and showers. You can also import a CSV or Excel file with groups.

    Can I reach guests by email as well?

    Yes. txt.wedding supports email alongside SMS for detailed itineraries. TextMyGuests is SMS only.

    Which should I pick?

    Pick txt.wedding if you want one payment, unlimited messages, and email alongside SMS. Pick TextMyGuests if you prefer buying a fixed message bundle and are comfortable with a monthly fee while your event is active.

    Ready to switch from TextMyGuests?

    Free to set up, no card needed. Add your guests and pay $1 per guest, one time, only when you're ready to text. Unlimited messages (fair use), and your guests sign themselves up with a link or QR code.
