5 Essential Apps & Gadgets To Help Plan Your Wedding

We have moved on to the final frontier of wedding planning. Over the last few years as we become more active than ever on social media, an app has been invented for anything you could possibly imagine. Organising and planning each step of your special day is stressful enough, not to mention the added confusion of deciding what wedding apps and tools will actually be useful. Look no further than these five smartphone saviours to help you banish stress and ease the burden.

Wedding Apps

Pinterest

Where would we be without Pinterest, eh? The holy grail when it comes to wedding inspiration, it has turned many brides into hunter gatherer mode once a ring was popped on their finger. An online scrapbook where you can collect and pin all the wedding delights and trends which your heart desires. Follow us on Pinterest here www.pinterest.com/weddingdates for all the latest style and lots of pretty pictures. Take heed to our warning though, you will become seriously addicted.

Wedding Songs That Tell Your Love Story

We totally heart this helpful playlist created by the experts at Wedding Paper Divas. From tossing the bouquet to walking up the aisle, you will be covered for every genre. You will be left wondering where this 900 strong database has been your whole life! Our top pick for a bespoke wedding soundtrack, this is a DIY bride’s dream come true.

A complete package, you and your other half will have your very own personal wedding website with synced app. Manage your guest list with ease as real time alerts are sent to guests as a reminder to RSVP. On the day, your friends and family can use a point and shoot mode on their app to capture the most intimate moments of the day. These can be edited and enhanced before sharing snaps of the Appy Couple on social media.
