Where Couples Run Into Limits With Joy
Joy is a solid free option for publishing wedding details. But once you need to actually manage guests, the gaps start showing up.
RSVP tracking is basic and meal choice handling requires workarounds
Guest communication tools are limited — you end up back in email or group texts
Limited reminder tools mean more manual work chasing guests who have not responded
Seating planning is separate from guest data, so you are duplicating work
Free tier includes Joy branding and upsells guests see on your site
Privacy controls are limited — your wedding details are more public than you might want
