In their own words
Duva
Duva is a web platform for wedding websites, guest lists, RSVPs, messaging, and planning. Its site builder supports pages for schedules, travel, galleries, registries, FAQs, and RSVP responses. Guests can respond through a personalized link or household name lookup without installing an app or creating a Duva account. Organizers can assign guests to separate ceremonies and track headcounts and responses for each event. The guest list accepts CSV imports and per-event assignments; Duva describes it as designed for 500+ guests. A free planner includes a categorized checklist, an estimate-versus-actual budget tracker, and a vendor tracker. Invitations and reminders can go by SMS to +1 numbers and WhatsApp to supported numbers outside +1. Replies sent directly to those messages do not record an RSVP; guests need to use the browser page. Duva also offers more than 25 animated save-the-date designs, with free and premium options. The free plan includes the website, RSVP, guest list, checklist, budget, and vendor tracker. One-time paid options include messaging unlock for $10 as a one-time purchase. Duva supports multiple events but does not offer custom domains.
