Every guest has something to say.
Votive turns your iPad into a video guestbook. Guided prompts help every guest know what to say, and Votive builds an automatic highlight reel of the night. Works offline, saves clips locally, no app for guests.

Sarah & Mike's
Wedding
December 14, 2026
Tap anywhere to leave a message
Set it up in minutes. Let it run all night.
Three taps. That's all it takes.
From setup to standing ovation
01
Set up
Name your event, choose a theme, add guided prompts like ‘Share your favorite memory.’ Place your iPad and walk away.
02
Guests record
They tap, see a guided prompt, record a heartfelt message, and done. No logins, no instructions, no friction.
03
Relive it all
Browse every clip, pick your favorites, and get an automatic highlight reel — with music, on-device, in minutes.
Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.
Guided Prompts
Every guest sees a prompt like 'Share your favorite memory,' so no one freezes on camera. Use ours or write your own. It is why the messages come out heartfelt, not awkward.
Automatic Highlight Reel
Votive automatically compiles your favorite clips into a cinematic highlight reel with music. On-device. No uploading. No waiting days.
Works Offline
No WiFi needed. Every message records and saves clips locally on your iPad. Because venue WiFi is never reliable.
Beautiful Themes
Six built-in palettes plus fully custom colors. Your guestbook matches your event, not the other way around.
Photo Booth
Guests can snap a photo after recording their video message. Two keepsakes in one.
Export Anywhere
Export any clip or the full highlight reel by AirDrop, Files, or Photos. No cloud upload, ever.
Love letters from our couples
The most meaningful keepsake we have from our day. Watching these back feels like being right there in the room with everyone again.

47 recordings and every single one made us cry. Our family overseas could leave messages too — it’s truly the digital heirloom we hoped for.

Better than the photo booth. People were so much more honest and vulnerable. We’ll watch these video messages for the next 50 years.
