What template apps can't do
Six things you only get at Shubhkatha
- Every guest by namePishi gets "Dear Pishi". Your boss gets "Dear Mr Roy". One design, a personal link for each guest.
- Doors that open like a biye bari gateGuests tap, and two carved doors swing open to reveal your invite. It feels like walking into the wedding.
- Chapters that unlock by dateGaye holud unlocks first, then biye, then boubhat. Your guests keep coming back to the link.
- Wording written for youReal Bengali, the way your grandparents would say it. Not machine translation, not a blank box to fill.
- Link and video in one orderThe story link for phones, the MP4 for family groups and elders. No second vendor.
- Private without a PINHidden from Google, unguessable link, venue only. Elders never get stuck at a password screen.
Why families choose us
Not a template. A person who gets Bengali weddings.
Shubhkatha started with one invite. We made a story-style e-invite for our own family wedding. Within a day, relatives were calling to ask who made it and how they could get one. That's the invite we now make for you.
You talk to the same person from first message to final link. No call centre, no ticket number. Just someone who knows the difference between a boubhat and a reception, and why your pishi must be greeted by name.
- Bengali firstWording written by a Bengali, not run through a translator.
- You see it before guests doA private preview link to check every name, date and time.
- Made for WhatsAppOpens fast on any phone, even a parent's old Android.
- One person, start to finishReply on WhatsApp, usually the same day.
