Sound familiar?
Generic checklists assume a $35K wedding with 200 guests. Yours is nothing like that.
Every vendor hides their pricing behind a sales call. You just want to know what things cost.
You've spent 40 hours on Pinterest and you're more overwhelmed than when you started.

How it works

Three steps. Then one helpful email lands every Saturday until the big day.

  1. 01

    Tell us about your wedding

    Date, budget, guest count, city, wedding type. Takes 2 minutes.

  2. 02

    Get one email per week

    Timed to your countdown. What to do this week, what it should cost in your city, and what to skip.

  3. 03

    Reply when you're stuck

    Ask anything. “Is $3K enough for flowers in Nashville?” We answer with your full context in mind.

Personalization

Built around your wedding, not someone else's

Timed to your countdown

Every email lands at exactly the right moment, whether you're 18 months out or 6 weeks away. No irrelevant advice, no scrambling to catch up.

Real costs for your city

Photographer rates in Nashville are not the same as New York. We give you local benchmarks so you know what's fair before the first sales call.

Matched to your wedding type

Backyard elopement. Micro-wedding. Traditional 150-guest reception. The advice you get is built around your wedding, not a generic template.

Built around your budget

A $12K wedding and a $80K wedding need completely different guidance. We never assume what you're working with.

How is this free?

We earn a small commission when you buy something we recommend, like stationery from Minted or a registry through Zola. That's it.

Your planning guidance is never compromised by what pays us. We recommend what's right for your wedding, not what pays the highest commission.

For the bride who keeps Googling

Stop Googling what should I be doing right now. We'll tell you.

FAQ

Questions

Answers to the things people ask before they sign up.

01Is this really free?
Yes, completely. We earn a small affiliate commission when you purchase something we recommend: a vendor, a product, a service. Your planning guidance is never paywalled and is not compromised by what pays us.
02How personalized is it?
Genuinely. Your emails are built around your specific date, guest count, budget, city, and wedding style. A backyard ceremony in Austin with 30 guests gets completely different guidance from a ballroom reception in Chicago with 200.
03Can I reply to the emails?
Yes, and you should. Reply with any question, big or small. We respond with your full context in mind. 'Is $2,500 enough for a florist in Denver for 60 guests?' We'll give you a real answer, not a generic one.
04What if I haven't set a date yet?
That's fine. Give us your best estimate, even just a season and year, and we'll start with the early foundation work. You can update your details anytime.
05What wedding types do you cover?
Elopements, micro-weddings, backyard celebrations, traditional venues, destination weddings, and everything in between. The guidance adapts to whatever you're planning.
06How do I unsubscribe?
There's an unsubscribe link in every email. One click, instant. No forms, no guilt trips.
