Wedding invite system and manager
· Report Bug · Request Feature
Table of Contents
Weddings are supposed to be the "best part" of the relationship - the pinnacle of commitment. It's a party you invite all your friends and family to.
But:
Weddings are a huge stressful mess - complicated by the lack of RSVPs, expensive markups and sheer inexperience at organizing huge parties.
I started building the original version of this site for my own wedding, years ago. Since then much has changed, including a global pandemic. I've kept up, making many versions of this for all my friends.
The original PHP version had many flaws, including an utterly exhausting level of work required to build and design the backend pages.
I've been trying to make a Django version of the project for years, this is my latest, and hopefully last attempt at it.
Make sure to generate a new secret with:
python -c 'from django.core.management.utils import get_random_secret_key; print(get_random_secret_key())'
For more examples, please refer to the Documentation
See the open issues for a list of proposed features (and known issues).
- Project Should be in Django, using the latest version

(to allow stateless services like Jitsi without losing moderator control)
* Can change meeting links on the fly, since its just a redirector.
* compliance with COVID regulations and TAV Yarok. Including fetching updates from COVID advisory sites.
* save the date page, which lets you get basic info and add in your email? for updates.(simplepush?)

I'd really like to use WebAuthN/social/djangoauth for the backend login to provide a range of options
