# Quick Start

> Get up and running with Weddingkart in 5 minutes.

This guide walks you through the core Weddingkart workflow from sign-up to sending your first announcement. By the end, you'll have a wedding set up, a few test guests added, and a real message delivered.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create your account">
    Go to [app.weddingkart.co](https://app.weddingkart.co) and sign up with your phone number.

    You'll receive a one-time password (OTP) on WhatsApp or SMS. Enter the OTP to verify your number and complete sign-up.

    No credit card is required to create an account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create a wedding">
    After logging in, click **Create Wedding**.

    Fill in the wedding details:

    * \*\*Role - \*\*Event Mananager / Bride / Groom / Relative / Friend / Weddingkart Team
    * **Groom name** and **Bride name**
    * **Wedding date**

    Click **Save** to create the wedding. You'll land on the wedding dashboard.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add a few test guests">
    Navigate to the **Guests** section and create 2–3 guests manually.

    For each guest, enter their name and phone number. Use your own number or a colleague's for this test so you can see exactly what the guest receives.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Send your first announcement">
    Go to **Announcements** and create a new announcement.

    * Set the type to **Wedding Invite**
    * Write your message
    * Attach a PDF/Imagr or Video if you have one (such as a wedding invitation card)
    * Set the recipients to the `test` group
    * Click **Send**

    The guests in your test group will receive a WhatsApp message within seconds. Check your phone — that's the exact experience your real guests will have.
  </Step>
</Steps>

You've completed the full Weddingkart loop: create a wedding, add guests, and send a message. Now build it out for your real event:

* [Build out your full guest list](/guests/overview) — import from Excel or add guests in bulk
* [Set up RSVPs](/collect/rsvp-management) — collect attendance confirmations with one-tap WhatsApp buttons
* [Explore announcements](/announcements/overview) — schedule messages, use AI to write them, and send to specific groups

<Note>
  The free plan lets you explore every feature in Weddingkart. The only limitation is that you cannot send messages to more than 3 guests at a time. Upgrading to a paid plan removes this limit so you can broadcast to your full guest list.
