A Ruby Hacker's Wedding

A Ruby Hacker's Wedding

My wedding, with code


What Happened

Got married in 2016. Couldn't resist making the whole thing unnecessarily technical.

The Website

Rails app with:

  • RSVP form (with proper validation, obviously)
  • Photo gallery
  • Event schedule with timezones
  • Guest book

The Invitations

Designed to look like Ruby code:

class Wedding
  def initialize
    @date = "June 2016"
    @venue = "Bangalore"
  end
  
  def invite(guest)
    puts "Dear #{guest}, you're invited!"
  end
end

Reception

Family was confused. Developer friends loved it. The invites became collector items in our circle.


200+ RSVPs. No bugs in production.
