Our Review

When I first came upon this software, I was intrigued. Could this actually help with all of the planning details and make things a little easier??

What I discovered was that this program definitely delivered - making wedding planning actually seem downright fun as I went through the different stages!

Here are some of the features that I particularly liked:

Guest List Manager

Ability to enter guest details manually or import them from another file (Excel csv file, text files, etc.)
Sort by Guest's first name, last name or other criteria
Can maintain an "A" and a "B" list, for keeping track of those guests that you may or may not invite based on budget, etc.
Enter additional guest information such as whether the guests have children and how many
Easily see who's on the A list or B list (or the combined list) and print out anytime
View statistical data and graphs on what percentage of the guests are from the bride's side, the groom's side, or how many are friends, coworkers, etc. - since I am so visually-oriented and like to see data in graph format, I loved this handy little feature :)
Also separate guests into different groups according to which wedding events they are invited to - the bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, etc. - a HUGE organizational help!!

Task List Manager

Keep track of every single little thing you have to do before the wedding, assign a due date, and even assign the task to a particular person
If the task becomes overdue, the software will alert you in the "Overdue" column

Scheduler

Make a schedule for the big day, the day before or anything else that needs some time management help
Record every event by time, location and vendor (the software will put it all in order and make a neat schedule for you to print out) and then distribute the schedule as appropriate to your wedding party and vendors

Budget

Just enter the total amount of money you want to spend on the wedding and the software will automatically give you a sample budget based on that amount - quickly see how much you should anticipate spending on the dress, the entertainment, etc.
With this starter budget, start modifying it according to your own needs and priorities, and go from there - each category can get as detailed as you want, right down to the cent
Keep track of balances due to vendors as well as money already paid and who paid for what (bride's family, groom's family, etc.)

Seating Chart Manager

Easily assemble each table seating assignment working from your guest list
Software will show you how many seats are still left to fill at each table
Move guests around from table to table as the guest list changes
Print out a final seating chart to give to your calligrapher, catering manager, etc.

Envelopes, Labels, Place Cards, oh my!

Save money and print out your own inner or outer envelopes, table place cards or address labels
Guest names and addresses will be taken directly from your guest list - no need to enter anything twice
Great time-saver for printing envelopes for the bridal shower or thank you cards

All in all, this relatively inexpensive piece of software truly is a complete solution for pulling together all of that data that goes into pulling off a successful, organized wedding. Very highly recommended.
