Project Overview

Veselia is a modern wedding planning web app designed to help couples manage one of the most stressful parts of wedding preparation guests, RSVPs, and seating arrangements.

Many couples rely on spreadsheets, messages, and emails scattered across platforms. Veselia brings everything into one calm, elegant experience that feels intuitive, organized, and human. The goal was to design a product that feels supportive rather than overwhelming during an emotional life moment.

The Problem

Wedding planning tools are often:

  • Overly complex

  • Built for professional planners, not couples

  • Visually cluttered and stressful

  • Missing key guest-related workflows

Couples needed a simple, affordable, and beautifully designed solution focused specifically on guest management and RSVP coordination without unnecessary features.

The Goal

Design a wedding-focused web experience that:

  • Makes guest management effortless

  • Simplifies RSVP collection

  • Removes the need for spreadsheets

  • Feels warm, modern, and stress-free

  • Works seamlessly across devices


My Role

UI/UX Designer

I was responsible for:

  • User flows & wireframes

  • High-fidelity UI design

  • Responsive layouts

All designs were created in Figma, focusing on clarity, usability, and emotional comfort.

Design Approach

The design approach balanced function and emotion.

Key principles:

  • Calm visual hierarchy

  • Soft, wedding-appropriate color palette

  • Minimal cognitive load

  • Clear CTAs and form guidance

  • Familiar patterns with thoughtful micro-interactions

The interface avoids overwhelming users and guides them step-by-step through each task.

Key Features


Guest List Management

Couples can add, edit, and remove guests easily, while controlling plus-one permissions. The experience replaces spreadsheets with a clean, visual table that’s easy to scan and update.

RSVP Sendout & Collection

RSVPs can be sent via email or phone. Guests receive a personal link where they can:

  • Confirm attendance

  • Select meal preferences

  • Indicate plus-one information

  • Request hotel or transportation

No login required for guests, reducing friction and increasing response rates.


Tags & Grouping

Guests can be grouped using custom tags such as Family, Friends, or Coworkers, helping couples filter, organize, and communicate efficiently.

Seating Management

A visual seating planner allows users to create tables and assign guests intuitively, helping avoid awkward placements and last-minute confusion.

Exports

Guest lists and seating charts can be exported as PDF or CSV, making it easy to share with venues or planners.

Challenges & Solutions

Challenge: Avoiding Feature Overload

Wedding planning already comes with emotional stress.

Solution:
Focused the product on guest-related workflows only, ensuring every screen has a clear purpose and minimal distractions.

Challenge: Making Complex Tasks Feel Simple

RSVP logic, seating, and tags can easily become confusing.

Solution:
Used progressive disclosure, clear labels, and friendly micro-copy to guide users without overwhelming them.

Takeaways

Veselia proves that great UX is about empathy, not complexity.

By understanding the emotional context of wedding planning, the design focuses on:

  • Reducing stress

  • Building trust

  • Making users feel supported

A calm, well-structured interface can turn a stressful task into a reassuring experience.
