The Design

About Dear Online-Hochzeitseinladungsservice

Dear ist ein Online-Service für Hochzeitseinladungen. Die Einladungen entstehen durch das individuelle Gestalten mit Fotos, Videos und Texten, einschließlich der Profile von Braut und Bräutigam sowie Formularen für die Rückmeldungen. Im Vergleich zu Papiereinladungen werden die mit Dear erstellten Einladungen per E-Mail und über soziale Medien versendet, was Zeit, Kosten und Aufwand für das Paar und seine Gäste reduziert. Dear unterstützt auch weitere Aspekte der Hochzeit online, etwa die vorab erfolgende Zahlung von Hochzeitsgeschenken, den Empfangs-Check-in und die nach der Zeremonie versendeten Dankesschreiben. Der Service ist auf eine einfache Bedienung hin gestaltet.

Unique Properties
"Dear" is an online wedding invitation service which can be used to send online invitations by email and social media. Compared to paper invitations, it can reduce time, cost, and effort. Invitations can use original photos or videos and information such as the bride and groom's profile and RSVP forms can also be customized. Thank-you letters are also available to express gratitude to guests. Moreover, many functions exist such as prepayment of wedding gifts, reception for the wedding, and so on.

Production Technology
This website is based on AWS and Laravel. iOS and Android apps are also supported, which was achieved using Xamarin. CreateJS and Three.js were used for the top page and Amazing template to achieve advanced animations.
Design Challenge
Until recently, there was a deep-rooted belief in Japan that it was rude to send wedding invitations not in sealed envelopes. Therefore, web invitations were mostly for casual wedding parties, and designs and functions were simple. However, we put an importance on luxury for prestigious wedding parties. By displaying multiple photos and videos on a full screen and adding effects as viewers scroll, we appeal to the hearts of viewers.
Research
When the service was released in 2014, online invitations were a completely new service in Japan. In order to build a market, we continued to discuss the direction of the service, its design and functions, and have renewed the website. As a result, web-based invitations have become familiar in Japan. By incorporating the opinions of the generation who will hold weddings in the future, we aim to provide a service that delivers a good experience for the bride, groom and their guests.
Inspiration
Among all the preparations for a wedding, one of the most burdensome tasks for the bride and groom is to manage the attendance of guests and to make and mail invitations. Nowadays web and smartphone technology is getting better and better, so we thought that the burden on the bride and groom can be reduced by using these technologies. Not only do we reduce the burden, but also improve their relationship with their guests by taking advantage of the unique benefits of web-based invitations.
Project Duration
The service started in September 2014 in Japan.
Operation Flow
When accessing the top page, the animation which attracts visitors appears. Animation can be skipped when annoying. From the top page, you can access various pages that show information such as features of this service, designs of invitations, and so on. After you register, you can use the service and make invitations.
