Sophie Frost, a seasoned wedding planner, shares insights on the most effective digital tools available for 2021.
Digital tools offer centralized platforms for managing tasks, budgets, and guest information.
For budgeting, apps like Honeyfund or Zola offer comprehensive tracking, and for managing guest lists, platforms like The Knot and WeddingWire provide seamless RSVP tracking.
Tools like Evant are invaluable in production—they streamline communication with vendors, manage timelines, and ensure everyone is on the same page, notes Frost.
Couples sometimes forget to confirm essential details like special accommodations for VIP guests or ensure they’re included in early drafts of the seating chart, says Frost.
Over-relying on digital tools can lead to challenges, such as last-minute tech glitches or guests who aren’t tech-savvy struggling with online RSVPs.
Frost’s favorite digital wedding tools include Evant, which handles the RSVP process, and The Knot, a user-friendly tool with comprehensive features for building a registry and managing RSVPs.
Dedicated wedding planning apps provide a central hub for all wedding-related conversations and help reduce miscommunication.
Frost advises using a combination of tools, such as The Knot and Evant, to balance creativity with precision and ensure every aspect of the wedding is beautifully executed.
