The NFC Check-In: How a Small Card Solved a Big Wedding Problem

Caterer Ravi Khanna was skeptical about NFC check-ins until he saw how wed.cards streamlined the dinner service at a 500-guest wedding.


Managing a 500-Guest Dinner

Ravi Khanna, a seasoned wedding caterer, has seen it all. But when a client told him they'd be using NFC cards from wed.cards to manage the dinner service, he was worried. "I imagined chaos, people struggling with phones... I was wrong."


A Simple Tap

The couple had set up a "Dinner" counter in their wed.cards dashboard. As guests came to the buffet, a staff member stood at the entrance with a single smartphone. "Each guest just tapped their card on the phone. A green checkmark appeared. That was it. It took less than a second per person."


No More Misuse

"The biggest problem we face is guests coming back for multiple plates for their friends, or uninvited people trying to enter the dinner area," Ravi explains. "The wed.cards system completely solved that. If a card was already scanned, the phone showed a 'Logged' message. There was no argument, no confusion."


The Verdict from a Pro

The check-in was so fast that there were no long queues. The count of guests served was 100% accurate, which helped Ravi manage his inventory and reduce food waste.


"I am now telling all my clients to use wed.cards," Ravi states. "For catering management, it is a revolution. It makes our job easier and the event more organized for everyone. It's the future of wedding management."
