Comparisons

Weddtap vs Joy: which wedding website for your wedding?

Weddtap

The short answer

Joy is a very good free wedding website with no guest limit and a built-in gift registry. Weddtap suits weddings that need some logistics (several venues, shuttles, accommodation, guests who speak different languages) and where you want the wedding-day information in a single link. Joy is free with no limit; Weddtap is free with no guest limit, with three moments in the running order, one theme and one style, then a one-time payment to go further.

About Joy

Joy is a US wedding website and gift registry platform. The website, guest RSVPs and hosting are free, with no limit on guests.

Joy is funded by its registry (purchases made in its own shop and at partner retailers) and by paid extras, such as a custom domain name ($19.99 a year according to their page).

What Joy does well

  • Free with no guest limit: for a large wedding, that is a real advantage.
  • A gift registry and cash funds built into the same page.
  • A custom domain name is possible, which Weddtap does not offer for now.

  • You would rather pay once and know that nobody earns money from your registry or your guests.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Joy is free: why pay for Weddtap?
Because they are not the same thing. Weddtap is free too, with no guest limit, three moments in the running order, one theme and one style. To go further, you pay once for a page built for the wedding day, in three languages, with no ads and no commission. If your priority is free with no limit, Joy does that very well.
Can I use Weddtap and Joy together?
Yes. Many couples keep their gift registry elsewhere and put its link on their Weddtap page, which points to the registry or cash fund of their choice.
Do my guests have to install anything?
No. They open a link, in their own language, and reply from their phone.
