Lovecast is a one-way stream with an unlimited number of guests.
This prevents interruption during your wedding celebration: with one-way streaming, guests will not accidentally take the spotlight when they unmute themselves. Your guests will still be able to join the live chat to interact with other guests via text. Most couples found streaming to a large group of remote guests this way much more stress-free.
Additionally, Zoom only allow for 360p video quality for group sizes larger than 2, whereas Lovecast uses high-quality 1080p livestreaming technology and automatically saves the recording to your event website for viewing afterward.
Absolutely! We know there are a lot of memorable moments you want to share with your guests. We’ve had users go live when the bride and groom are getting ready, when exchanging gifts, at first look, at the ceremony, at the first dance, and at many other moments. Feel free to start and stop the stream whenever you like.

Yes, each livestream link is private. Nobody will be able to access your event without the link. We specifically ask search engines (like Google) to not index the website so that it won't appear on any search results either.

No, you don't need to download the app. All you need is the URL link the bride/groom will be sharing with you to livestream their wedding day.
Lovecast is a software platform for couples to DIY their wedding live-streaming. Although we provide instructions to help the couple and their designated co-host set up the live-streaming, we are not involved in the logistics at the wedding site.

You can double check to see if the video is muted on your device (some web browsers mute videos by default upon initial page load). If you are sure that your device is not muted and you still can not hear the sound very well, you can share the feedback to the livestream co-host through the event live chat. The livestream co-host is usually an onsite guest or vendor that volunteers to help the couple. They may not be able to act on the sound qualty feedback (e.g., they can't move any closer to the couple during the ceremony).
Yes! Lovecast works for both mobile LTE and WiFi connections.
We suggest checking with your wedding venue regarding internet connection before your wedding day. You can simply run an internet speed test at the venue if possible and aim for an upload speed of at least 3MB/s. You can also perform a streaming test with our app to test out video and sound quality.

The short answer is, you only need a smartphone with internet connection.
To improve your video quality, we do highly recommend getting a simple tripod to avoid shaky hands. As for audio, Lovecast uses state-of-art technology to capture the best quality audio directly from your phone*. So in most cases, you do not need an external microphone.
*Disclaimer : the actual mic quality varies among phones. You can do a test stream beforehand to determine if an external mic is still needed for your phone.
