  • Great concept, the app needs work

    The app lags A LOT when you’re typing.
    When you add in a new guest name it automatically shows them as ‘invited’. In order for a guest to be invited, you need to send them a save-the-date then an invite but there’s no easy place to check out that you’ve sent those things - as in what stage you’re at with that guest in the invitation process. I also think it would be far better if you could just send out your save-the-dates and invite all at once through the app.

  • Great App - but I’m Canadian

    I spent a few hours detailing and organizing the perfect wedding invitations only to find out they don’t ship to Canada?!
    Other than that, the app and website has been great at keeping me on tracking and using all of their digital resources!
  • Just. Keeps. Crashing.

    I appreciate what The Knot offers - great resources, great templates for a site and invitations, lots of great content for wedding planning.
    The website often states to use the app, however, when I use the app it frequently crashes. I mean most of the time I try to use it.
    The website templates need some work because a lot of formatting is just not possible, so the website looks like a word dump.
    Please offer languages beyond English. It’s so difficult to try to cater to a guest lists with various language requirements.

    But the crashing! Lots of crashing. Save content frequently or write it elsewhere and copy and paste into the app so you have the content.

  • For USA residents only

    Basic list can be used universally but you can’t add or list any vendors or services that aren’t within the American United States.

    Can not alter pre suggested items to have a more personalized meaning. You have to delete and then type out your own new suggestion. Ex. Ceremony musicians; Reception DJ; cocktail hour DJ…..shouldn’t be 3 separate things. Most people will have 1 to cover the day.
    Dates of activities are easily altered to give yourself more time. Like addressing and mailing invites to give more time than just 1 mth to receive and RSVP to if you’re really wanting the guest to be available. Especially if the guest lives farther away or wedding is done at a time most people will already have made plans (like summer).

  • Horrible Site & App Since they Updated Logo

    I have no idea what’s happened since they decided to change their logo, but literally the entire app is worthless. My wedding is in November and I’ve come very far with vendors and building the website and registry and now I’m literally afraid to update anything because I’m afraid my work won’t be saved. I have most all vendors booked and in the app when I click the vendor management it only shows a vendor as “checked” if they’re a vendor you can search for on The Knot’s list. If it was someone I inputted, it says “get started” which wasn’t the case before and actually what’s more frustrating is that all that vendor information I inputted is still there, it just doesn’t recognize the vendor is booked. The website seems to work better with the vendor management. Also using the checklist I feel like the app and website are not reading each other. If I check something off in the app it still shows up if you go to the website on a PC. This is such a great planning tool and this is coming from someone who started on Zola and made the move to the Knot. However, maybe the app / site developers could do a better job testing and actually work out all the issues before the site decided to change their logo. Which BTW is absolutely hideous. They should go back to using the old style and color scheme. I keep hoping things get fixed with each update, but I see absolutely nothing has changed.

  • Best ever!

    Bless this app and its developers! Our planning was low stress from this app’s guidance and all its planning guides. Has song requests and everything like budget planning and tracking and checklists that kept us organized. I can’t thank them enough. I highly recommend this app for all marring couples and those looking into tying the knot because there were no surprises left unturned. Love it!

  • 40% functional in Canada, hideous new design update

    The new design update it also very ugly, not sure what would make them choose that. Maybe a managers six year old had control of final design??? Anyway it is helpful for things like the guest list, and if you don’t mind manually entering all registry details the website feature isn’t bad, but it is very limited for Canadians. Many registry items won’t work as they will alert you they don’t ship to Canada, and are in US funds. Oh well.

  • Wedding planning

    It’s the best app to use while planning your dream wedding. It has so many tools that was very helpful. Creating a website was so easy. The only downside that I had was sending messages to all my guests, some of them didn’t receive the website link to RSVP, some of them received 6-7 messages after replying to the RSVP saying “ We got your message! Replies will be available for the couple to see.” But other than that it’s a very good app to use while planning your wedding.

  • Amazing wedding planning app

    Two of my friends used The Knot for their wedding planning and recommended the site to me as I had no idea where to start with wedding planning besides finding my venue. This app and the website was so helpful with wedding planning and made the process much less stressful (although wedding planning IS definitely super stressful lol). The fact it is a free site is absolutely incredible since weddings are extremely expensive as is. The site allowed you to search for vendors in any category you needed, allowed you to keep track of your budget and how much you have spent, create a wedding vision if you had or wanted one, create a guest list and have everyone RSVP online (which I did not do but others did and they said it was easy to do), and had month to month checklists for you to accomplish which was extremely helpful. Making my wedding website and then my wedding registry was not hard using the app either. I would recommend using the knot for wedding planning for anyone who may need help during the process, especially if you aren’t hiring a wedding planner to help you during the process; which I did not as I could not afford to do so. Can’t recommend the app enough!
