Translate the experience, not only the headline
Names and venue addresses may stay the same, but directions, dress guidance, RSVP questions and schedule labels need the same attention as the opening sentence. A half-translated invitation creates uncertainty exactly where international guests need clarity.

One source of truth
Every language edition should carry the same factual information. Keep dates, time zones, map pins and response deadlines in a single checklist, then verify each edition against it before publishing. Guests may read different languages, but their answers still arrive in one response list.
Plan for names and scripts
Ask how the couple and parents want their names written in each script. Transliteration is a choice, not an automatic conversion. Arabic and Latin scripts may also need different font sizes and line breaks to feel equally intentional.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Will guests see every language at once?+
No. They can switch to the edition they prefer, which keeps each version readable on a phone.
Do we get separate RSVP lists?+
No. Responses from every language feed the same couple dashboard.
Can we edit one language later?+
Yes. You can correct wording without changing the invitation link while it is hosted.
How many languages does Wedvite support?+
