Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

Git Hitched is an open-source, self-hosted wedding website platform for couples who want control over deployment and customization. Built with Ruby on Rails, it combines a gated wedding site with content pages, household-based multi-step RSVPs, support for multiple wedding events, and an administrative dashboard. It is especially suited to technical couples or developers who are comfortable forking, configuring, deploying, and adapting a template for a specific wedding.

Its strongest area is guest logistics. The platform handles meal and dietary choices, children and childcare tracking, hotel room bookings, seating-chart planning, CSV imports, formatted guest exports, and Excel seating exports. Automated invitation, RSVP, reminder, and booking emails support ongoing coordination, while configurable content-page feature flags allow the site experience to be tailored. Stripe supports hotel payments, and SendGrid, Postmark, and Google Sheets are listed integrations. The result is a broad operational toolkit rather than a simple announcement site.

The trade-off is the self-hosted model. Deployment, configuration, service connections, and maintenance sit with the couple or their technical partner, so it is less suitable for anyone seeking a ready-to-publish hosted builder. Git Hitched should appeal to users who value open-source control and detailed guest management, particularly when a wedding includes multiple events, travel arrangements, seating plans, or complex RSVP requirements. Couples wanting a low-setup experience or a broader planning product should consider a different type of builder.
