How bulk email behaves
- A bulk send covers at most 10 guests per click. Inside it, emails go out with a short pause (600 ms) between batches to stay under the provider's rate limit. For more guests, send again.
- Each send is written to
email_log. A guest is marked invited only after a successful send. - Free celebrations are limited to 20 invited guests; an owner-or-planner role is required to send.
- The free Resend plan allows roughly 100 emails a day. A larger wedding needs a paid Resend plan or several days.
What the guest receives
A branded email with the couple's names, the date and venue, and one button to their personal link. When they open it, they see the designed card and the RSVP form (see RSVP).
