Wedding shows, open houses, bridal brunches…it’s all the fun parts of planning your wedding.
Wedding shows like the Bridal Extravaganza are the ideal way to get a huge head start planning your wedding. With piles of wedding professionals, runway shows, and great incentives like Bridal Bucks, this is the can’t miss stop on your wedding planning journey.
Open houses are typically hosted by area venues, often with a select number of other wedding professionals for you to meet.

Wedding Deals & Specials
Be in the know each time a new wedding professional promotes a discount, a complimentary added service, or a deal on a last-minute wedding date.
Keeping an eye on these specials will mean stretching your wedding budget even further. You’ll find promotions like a free bridal bouquet with a wedding package, military and first responders discounts, and 10 – 20 percent off package prices.
You can save each of your favorite deals in the app to easily find them later. But don’t wait too long – these specials and deals only last so long.
My Budget
Planning and managing your wedding budget can be stressful. The process takes time and attention to detail. Simplify that process by using our Budget Calculator along with the app.
In planning your wedding budget, you’ll want to start with a general, round number in mind. Once you plug that number into the Budget Calculator, you’ll see a breakdown to start as a guide. Start making adjustments as you discuss your plans.
The app makes it easy to track your spending, see when payments to wedding professionals are due, and lets you know when you’ve spent more than planned. Keep in mind, the web-based Budget Calculator and the app sync perfectly, whether you’re working on a desktop or on the run with your phone.
My Guests
Guest List management can be tricky. After going through the process of creating your list, you’ll need to track who is attending and possibly what their food preferences are.
Creating a seating chart is an extra step many couples are hesitant to take on, but it has it’s benefits. You can ensure your single guests get to mingle at a fun table, and keep parties separated that may cause undue drama. The app includes a seating chart to help tackle this wedding planning chore.
Added bonus? The app even tracks if you sent them a thank you note post-wedding.
