Engineer Plans Wedding with Jira
An engineer named Dhaval Singh recently took to X to share how he used Jira, along with Google Sheets, to organize his wedding tasks. The post quickly went viral, with internet users dubbing it “the most techy thing ever.”
Singh shared screenshots of a dedicated “wedding board” he built in Jira, a project management tool typically used in workplaces to plan, track, and release software projects. Alongside his fiancée, he managed various wedding-related tasks, from invitation cards and pre-wedding photoshoots to guest gifts and outfits.
Initially, the planning began with a Google spreadsheet titled “wedding sheet,” created by Singh’s fiancée. “This is the way,” Singh captioned the screenshot of the notification he received about the spreadsheet. Soon after, he switched to Jira, explaining, “Google sheets wasn’t scalable for an Indian wedding. Moved to Jira instead.”
The wedding board, labeled the “Aditi-Dhaval Wedding board,” quickly caught the internet’s attention, racking up over 400,000 views on X. The board organized wedding tasks into categories like “to-do,” “in progress,” and “done.” It even included sections for “function rituals,” “food and catering,” and “honeymoon.”
Social media users were both impressed and amused by Singh’s approach. “Glad I lived long enough to watch this happen,” one user commented. Another joked, “I can picture multiple Aditi <> Dhaval catchup calls to find synergies and circle back on increasing shareholder value.”
One tech enthusiast remarked, “Hear me out. This is the best way to take advantage of Jira,” while another chimed in, “If a project management tool can handle the stakeholder conflicts, fixed timelines, changing requirements, and endless dependencies of an Indian wedding, it’s ready for any market and product!”
Inspired by Singh’s idea, many other tech professionals began sharing how they too had used various software tools to plan their own weddings, proving that tech-savvy planning is more popular than ever.
