+# 💍 Say "I Do" to Automation: Building an AI-Powered Wedding Experience with Next.js & Gemini
+
+In the era of digital transformation, the traditional paper wedding invitation is becoming a relic of the past. But while digital invitations are rising, most are just static landing pages. I wanted something more—something interactive, intelligent, and truly helpful for both the couple and the guests.
+
+That’s why I built **Wedding Website Generator v2.0**, a production-ready CLI tool that scaffolds a complete, high-end wedding application in minutes.
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 The Vision: Beyond the Static Page
+
+Most wedding websites provide a map and a date. My goal was to build a **digital concierge**. Guests always have questions: *"Where is the parking?"*, *"What time does the ceremony start?"*, *"What is the dress code?"*. 
+
+By integrating **Google Gemini 2.5-flash**, I’ve created a sitewide AI assistant that is trained on the couple's specific wedding data. It doesn't just display info; it talks to your guests.
+
+## ✨ Core Features at a Glance
+
+### 🤖 AI-Powered Intelligence
+*   **Wedding Concierge**: A floating chatbot that answers guest queries about venues, schedules, and the couple's story in real-time.
+*   **Sentiment Wall**: AI analysis that summarizes guest wishes into a beautiful "Collective Blessing" paragraph.
+
+### 📸 Interactive Guest Experience
+*   **Personalized Invitations**: Every guest gets a unique ID and URL. They only see the events they are specifically invited to.
+*   **Digital Guestbook**: A masonry-style gallery where guests can upload photos directly from their phones (powered by Cloudinary).
+*   **Reception Playlist**: A real-time queue where guests can request songs they want to hear.
+
+### 🎮 The "Control Center" (Admin Dashboard)
+Managing a guest list of 500 people is a nightmare. The generator includes a secure dashboard where the couple can:
+*   Add/Edit guest details and invitation types.
+*   Track RSVPs and food preferences in real-time.
+*   Generate pre-filled WhatsApp messages for one-click sharing.
+
+### 🎥 Live Event Broadcast
+The site includes a dedicated `/updates/overlay` route designed for **OBS**. You can display scrolling "Live News" updates and a synchronized clock on the venue's big screens during the event.
+
+---
+
+## 🛠️ The Tech Stack
+
+Building a scalable, real-time app required a modern stack:
+*   **Framework**: Next.js 15 (App Router)
+*   **UI/UX**: HeroUI (formerly NextUI) + Framer Motion for elegant animations.
+*   **Database**: Firebase Firestore for real-time updates.
+*   **Auth**: Firebase Authentication.
+*   **AI**: Google Gemini AI.
+*   **Media**: Cloudinary (Image resizing and storage).
+*   **Email**: Resend API for automated guest reminders.
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Quick Start: Make it Yours
+
+One of the best parts about this project is that it is an **npm utility**. You don't need to clone a repo and manually search-and-replace strings. 
+
+### 1. Generate
+Simply run:
+```bash
+npx @titas_mallick/wedding-site-gen
+```
+The CLI will ask for the couple's names, the wedding date, and your preferred theme. It then generates a sanitized, personalized codebase.
+
+### 2. Configure
+Fill in your `.env.local` with your Firebase and Gemini keys. Deploy the included Firestore rules, and you are ready to go.
+
+### 3. Personalize
+Replace the placeholder images in the `/public/` folder with your own pre-wedding portraits and milestone photos. The masonry gallery will automatically detect and display them.
+

+
+## 📜 Final Thoughts
+
+Weddings are about stories. By using AI and modern web tech, we can tell those stories in a way that is engaging, modern, and stress-free. Whether you're a developer looking to build a site for a friend or a tech-savvy couple, this tool provides a professional foundation to build upon.
