ShubhLink Editorial Team

We are the people who design ShubhLink's invitation templates, build ShubhLink AI, and answer families' questions on support every day. The Journal is where we write down what we have learned: what an invitation needs to say, how different communities word it, and how to share it so every guest can open it.

Each guide is researched from traditions families follow and the questions we are asked most. Customs differ between families and regions, so where a ritual has more than one form we say so. Before a guide is published, a member of the team reads it for accuracy, and we update guides when something changes.

Spotted something that doesn't match your family's tradition, or a question we haven't answered? Write to support@shubhlink.com. We read every message.

How we write our guides

  • We start from what families actually ask us: on support, in AI Studio, and when they choose a template.
  • Wording samples are written to be used. Change the names, dates and family details, and they are ready to send.
  • Customs differ between families and regions, so where a ritual has more than one form we say so, and we never promise dates or muhurats.
  • A member of the team reads each guide before it is published, and we update guides when something changes.
