Strengths and weaknesses
Gathr
- Free for you and your guests, with no ads
- Handles multi-day weddings with many functions
- Guests reply without installing anything
- The planner app is iPhone and iPad only
- No registry or wedding website builder
Gathr handles the whole guest side of a wedding or party: invitations guests answer from a link, RSVPs, a checklist, a budget and a schedule for every function, from mehendi to reception. A co-host can plan alongside you. Guests need no app, and nobody pays a fee. It is less of a wedding website builder than Zola, but for organising the guest list it is excellent and free.

- Payments and messages handled in the app
- Service and trust fees add to the hourly rate

Taskrabbit is the quickest way to get help with small jobs: assembling furniture, mounting a TV, moving boxes or tidying a yard. You compare Taskers by price, reviews and skills, then chat and pay in the app. Taskers go through identity checks, and IKEA ownership makes furniture assembly a natural fit. Rates vary widely and a service fee is added, so check the total before booking.
