The kamati is built in

Weddings here are planned by a committee, so the app is too: shared tasks, one ledger, the couple approves.

Mobile money, not cards

Michango come in by M-Pesa, Mixx by Yas and Airtel Money, and cash is recorded next to them.

Made for WhatsApp and SMS

Cards, reminders and the wedding page are sent the way your guests already talk.

No app needed for guests

Guests open their card and your wedding page in the browser, answer RSVP and leave wishes.

Money you can trust

Every contribution accounted for.

Michango are paid through Malipopay, a Tanzanian payment gateway, and each payment is matched to the person who sent it. Wedding by Lockwood takes no fee from a contribution. Your guest list and your money records belong to you.
