Kerala village wedding invitation
Come home for the wedding
A bus ticket home, a tea shop with your names on its signboard, a bell cord that rings in the date, and your photos on a rope over the paddy.
Naadu is a digital Kerala wedding invitation, sent as a link on WhatsApp: each guest punches their own bus ticket home and spends one bright morning in a Kerala village, in poster colours, with people at work and a train always running. Every family is greeted by name, with each ceremony's time, place and map. Free to try; ₹1,999 once, when you send it.

Naadu, your home place
Naadu is the Malayalam word for the place you come from: the village you go back to, wherever you live now. This invitation is that journey home, for a wedding back in the naadu.
It is drawn like a bright film poster: the tiled tea shop, the country bus, the paddy and the palms. Nobody's face is in it. Your own photos are the only faces, and your words are the only words.
It plays as guests touch and scroll, on any phone, from a link on WhatsApp. There is no app to install and nothing to download.
How Naadu opens
One bright morning in a Kerala village, in cut-out layers: a palm comes into focus with your names in the sky, the camera tilts down to the tea shop with your names on its signboard, and guests pull the bus's bell cord for the date.
- 01
Your ticket home
Each guest gets a bus ticket with their family's name on it. One tap punches it, the bell rings, and the morning comes into view.
- 02
A village already at work
Your names in the sky over the paddy, a man climbing a coconut palm, workers bent over the rice, a cow grazing and the train going by.
- 03
The tea shop
The camera comes down the palm to the tea shop, your names on its signboard, a long pour of tea at the stall and a motorbike rolling in.
- 04
The bell cord
The country bus pulls in and fills the screen. Guests pull its bell cord, the route board rolls round, and there is your date.
- 05
Photos on a rope
Your story in the sky, and your photos pegged on a coir rope between two palms, each swinging as it comes to the middle.
- 06
A station for each ceremony
A yellow station board with each ceremony's name, and one clearing by the paddy dressed for it, with its time, place and map.
- 07
A glass of chai
Bananas swing in, a hand sets down a glass of chai, and the days left stand in the sky. A tap on the glass takes a sip.
- 08
A ticket for the couple
The closing words at dusk, and every guest's wish printed as a punched bus ticket, for everyone to read.

Questions families ask
How is it different from Kayal?
Both are for Kerala weddings. Kayal is a day on the backwaters in oil paint. Naadu is a bright morning in the village in poster colours, with buses, trains and people at work.
Whose faces are in it?
Only yours, in your own photos. The people in the village are drawn from behind or under a hat, so nobody's face is in the art.
How many photos can we add?
Up to eight. They hang on the rope one at a time, and a tap opens one large.
Is there a video too?
Yes. A 9:16 invitation video is included, with its own animation: a window seat on the train, a station for each ceremony, and your closing words at dusk.
How is it sent?
As a link on WhatsApp. It is ₹1,999, once, and every family can have its own link with its name on it.
