How wedding guest texting works
Three small steps. From the first save the date to the morning after, everything is prescheduled to go out automatically so you can hold the moments.
Upload your guest list
Drop in a spreadsheet or add guests manually. Names, phone numbers, groups, that's all we need. Most couples are done in under 5 minutes.
Customize your messages
Choose from templates or write your own, plus any custom messages you'd like to add, for free. Preview exactly what each guest will see before anything sends.
Sit back and celebrate
Messages send automatically at the perfect time. You stay present. Your guests stay informed. And every reply they send collects quietly in your dashboard, to read whenever you like.
Wedding text messages guests actually read
Real texts from weddings we ran, names changed for privacy. Every detail at the right moment.

Questions, answered
What makes Dearest Guest different?+
We treat your guest list like our own. Dearest Guest is a high-touch service built on human attention — your message plan is reviewed by a real person before launch, every send is tracked, and every guest reply is collected for you in one beautiful place. Where automated systems send and hope, we stay with you to the last text, with unlimited free edits right up to your day.
What if I want to change a message after I set it up?+
Change anything, anytime, free. Edit a line, swap a date, add a whole new message. It's yours to shape until the moment it sends.
When should I set this up?+
Every couple has their own timing. We've had couples set it up almost two years before the wedding and others four days before, and we work fast either way.
Will texting feel like too much for my guests?+
Most couples send five to seven messages across the whole journey, each timed to be useful rather than chatty. Guests can reply or opt out anytime, and their replies tell the story: they tap love on welcome-dinner notes, answer with can't-wait, and thank the couple for keeping them found.
Can you handle destination weddings?+
Yes, that's most of our weddings. Your wedding can be anywhere on earth — pricing is based on your guests' phone numbers, not your venue. Every guest is included at the same $3, whether their number is from the US, Canada, Europe, or beyond. We confirm delivery for your guests' countries with you before anything sends. Prefer WhatsApp? Reach out to us. We handle time zones, flight info, hotel deadlines, currency tips, and visa reminders. The things that make a destination feel held.
