Henna & Harmony vs WithJoy
Built for South Asian weddings. See how we compare.
South Asian weddings span multiple days with different events, guest lists, and dress codes. Generic wedding tools treat weddings as single-day affairs—leaving couples to juggle spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups, and constant re-explanations. Henna & Harmony was built from day one to handle this complexity.
| Feature | Henna & Harmony | WithJoy |
|---|---|---|
| Multi-Event RSVPs | One guest list, multiple events. Track RSVPs and plus-ones per ceremony without duplicate work or spreadsheet chaos. | Basic RSVP tools with limited per-event visibility. Often requires CSV exports for manual management. |
| Text Messaging | Send SMS updates instantly from any device. Perfect for last-minute changes during your wedding weekend. | Does not currently offer native SMS messaging; couples typically rely on email or external messaging tools. |
| Message Scheduling | Schedule messages in advance. Automatic sending with delivery tracking so you can focus on your events. | Messages are sent manually and do not support advance scheduling. |
| Guest Filtering | Create groups by event, family side, or any criteria. Send targeted messages to exactly the right people. | Message targeting is primarily group‑based. For more specific audiences (e.g., groom’s side attending a particular event), couples will have to create and manage dedicated groups manually. |
| Event Attire Guidance | Set dress code per event with optional color palettes. Guests always know exactly what to wear. | Attire details can be shared within general event notes, but it's limited to only text. |
