Wendus vs Plan Your Aisle

Wendus is a wedding seating chart, guest list and RSVP app for iPhone and iPad, with digital invitations your guests open on their own iPhone and your venue in 3D. Plan calmly, from the first guest list to the moment the last guest arrives. Seating chart and floor plan • Plan tables from your guest list in one step, with a head table and a seat kept free if you like. • Wendus seats every household, keeps apart the people who must sit apart, and tells you what it did. • Draw the room to scale, start from a listed reception hall, or import the venue's floor plan, then place tables, the stage, the dance floor and exits. • Walk the room in 3D and move, turn or add tables right there. • Seat orders, escort and place cards, and a caterer summary by table. Guest list and RSVP • Bring your list from Excel, CSV, Contacts or a pasted spreadsheet. Guests are grouped into households. • Ask for replies by WhatsApp, Messages or Mail with a ready-to-send message. • Paste a guest's reply and Wendus reads the answer, head count and meals for you to confirm. • Set a reply deadline and get gentle reminders. Digital invitations • Give each household its own invitation link. Guests on iPhone open it in Wendus, free for them, to see the dates, directions, add to calendar and their guest pass, and reply in a tap. • Find Your Seat: guests see the way from the entrance to their table, as a plan or in 3D, with their seat numbers. • Share wedding photos with every invited household. • Replies update your guest list by themselves. Anyone can still reply in the chat. • Invitations and photos are kept in your own iCloud and end-to-end encrypted. Nobody else, not even Wendus, can read them. The wedding day • Finalize the plan, send helpers what they need, and check guests in at the door by name or by scanning their QR guest pass, even offline. • Live arrivals keep every door in sync, with walk-ins, the run sheet and the kitchen's courses. Private by design • No accounts, no ads, no analytics, no tracking. • Your wedding is stored on your device and encrypted, with encrypted backups and full deletion when it's over. Explore a complete sample wedding for free. Premium is a one-time purchase, not a subscription, that lets you plan your own wedding for life and can be restored on your devices.

Planning a wedding is a second job nobody warned you about. The Pinterest part is fun. The deposits, vendor emails, budget math, and "wait, what am I supposed to be doing right now" part is not. Aisle is the wedding planner you don't have to hire. It walks you through the whole thing, month by month, the way a good planner would, so you always know what to do next and what it should cost. What you get: A personalized checklist Answer a few questions and Aisle builds your timeline around your actual date, budget, and venue. Every task shows up when it's supposed to, not all at once. Month-by-month guidance Each month, Aisle tells you what to focus on and shares the kind of advice a planner gives in person. What to ask a venue before you book. What belongs in a photographer contract. What couples wish they'd known sooner. A budget that keeps up Track every category, see what you've spent, and catch overspending before it happens. A payment calendar Know exactly what's due and when, so a deposit never sneaks up on you. Vendor help Aisle searches for real vendors that fit your style and budget, and drafts the inquiry emails for you. You still check reviews and meet them yourself. It just gets you there faster. Ask Aisle, anytime Have a question, ask it. Aisle answers using your wedding details, so the advice fits your situation, not a generic article. Why Aisle is different: The Knot and Zola are free because vendors pay them. That shapes what those apps show you. Aisle works differently. You pay one flat fee for the whole wedding. No commissions, no vendor kickbacks, no ads. The only person Aisle works for is you. A wedding planner costs thousands. Aisle is a fraction of that, and it's with you the whole time. Honest about what it is: Aisle gives you the structure, the knowledge, and the tools to plan confidently on your own. It won't show up and steam your dress on the day. But everything leading up to it, the part that actually feels overwhelming, it handles with you. Start free. Plan your whole wedding for one flat fee when you're ready.
