For the days after the proposal
Describe it in a sentence — Bridesmaid drafts the plan, the rough costs, even your first vendor emails. The wedding planning tool we're building while planning our own.
What one exchange looks like
A real exchange for a sample bride — Mara, autumn 2026, about 60 guests, a country-house weekend.
Old country house, autumn, about 60 people, somewhere we can all stay the weekend. Hoping to keep it near £12k — is that mad?
Not mad — tight, but doable off-peak. Here's a shape for it, and where the money actually goes.
First moves this week
Scope of cost
£11k–£16k
£12k is realistic for 60 guests off-peak if the bar stays simple. Here's where it flexes —
Three ways to shape it
Drafted: your first vendor email
Hi — we're planning an autumn 2026 wedding for about 60 guests and would love to check your availability and a rough quote for a Friday in October…
Bridesmaid writes it; you read it and hit send. We draft — you're always the one who sends.
A note from us
The first week after yes is chaos. Everyone has opinions, no one has a starting line. We wrote this tool the way we wish someone had written it for us — honest about what to do today, honest about what can wait.
Your plan, your costs, your first emails — all from one message.
