Founder, LumiWed
Robin Scharf is the founder of LumiWed. He grew up in Germany, then lived in Perth, London, and Amsterdam, and today splits his time between Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany — and is in a multicultural relationship himself. He speaks German, English, and Dutch fluently, plus some Spanish and French. Living in Amsterdam, he watched friends from every corner of the world get married — Italian-Iranian couples, Korean-Dutch families, Uruguayan-American love stories — and saw the same quiet struggle behind every beautiful wedding: juggling translations, duplicate websites, and RSVPs split across languages. That's what led him to build LumiWed.

A wedding is the moment two families choose each other in public. It should be the safest room in the world. Violence against civilians is wrong wherever it happens and whoever carries it out.

"What time does Friday start?" is the most-asked wedding question, and it is the easiest one to answer once and for all.

First-time couples do not build too little. They build too much, too early, and then maintain it for a year.

The four platforms everyone names are built for couples, not for planners. That is fine — until a client's guest list spans two languages.

You need four facts and an evening. The guest list, the registry decision, and the custom domain can all wait until the site exists.

The spreadsheet is not the problem. The problem starts when the spreadsheet and the invitations stop agreeing with each other.

A group chat answers one guest at a time. One link answers everyone, including the relatives who never got added to the chat.

The problem is rarely collecting replies. It is knowing, in one place, who has answered, who has not, and what each of them needs.

Two Catholic countries, two different rules. In France the mairie must come first; in Italy the church can be the marriage.

Vin d'honneur and copo de água both follow the ceremony and mean different things. Say who eats where.

Both countries celebrate late. Only one of them makes you marry twice. Publish which ceremony is the legal one.

Same legal principle, one extra French rule about order — plus two pre- and mid-wedding events neither side shares.
