Vows & Volts vs Zola
Zola is well known for its free wedding website and flexible registry — including cash funds — plus a growing vendor marketplace. Its strength is the all-in-one registry experience.
Guest management
Vows & Volts
A unified guest ledger with RSVP, dietary tags, and plus-ones — child guest records are structurally prevented from ever storing a direct email or phone number.
Zola
Guest list and RSVP tools tied closely to the wedding website/registry product.
Vendor booking
Vows & Volts
A vendor marketplace with a real booking lifecycle: inquiry, proposal, hire, and completion tracked as one contract record.
Zola
Vendor marketplace exists, oriented around browsing and messaging rather than a tracked contract-status workflow.
Security transparency
Vows & Volts
A publicly documented 13-layer security architecture with honestly-reported, current test status for every layer — not a marketing badge.
Zola
No public, per-layer security architecture or test status.
Data deletion
Vows & Volts
Self-service account deletion with a 30-day, user-cancellable grace period.
Zola
Not publicly documented as a self-service, trackable flow.
