Take organizing your wedding party out of the group text and into Semble. In a group text, links get buried, sizes get lost and deadlines slip. Semble keeps everyone's outfits, order-by dates and day-of schedule in one place, so you always know who's on track. EVERYONE GETS THEIR OWN PAGE Each person in your wedding party gets a private link with just what they need: what to wear, where to buy it, when to order it, and where to be on the day. There's no app to download and no account to make, and it's always free for them. YOU SEE EVERYONE AT A GLANCE • Looks: set up outfits for bridesmaids, groomsmen and anyone else, with colors, links, prices and order-by dates • Dashboard: see who has ordered, who still needs to share a size, and who is running behind • Reminders: when someone falls behind, a friendly reminder is ready to send, in your own words • Ideas and approvals: if someone finds something they love, they send it with a photo and you say yes or no • Mood boards: add inspiration photos so everyone works toward the same vision • Day-of schedule: share your planner's timeline or your wedding website, and Semble drafts the schedule. Each person sees only their part. • Your color: pick a color from your wedding palette, and it shows on every page MADE FOR IPHONE AND IPAD • Get a notification when someone sends an idea, when a look is complete, and when everything is ready, plus a weekly note about anything overdue • Take a photo of a dress or suit and add it right away • Add the day-of schedule to your calendar with one tap ONE PURCHASE PER WEDDING Semble is free to download. Opening your wedding is a single in-app purchase, with no subscription and nothing to cancel. Your account stays fully active until one week after your wedding, and it stays available to look back on after that. Leave the group text for the fun stuff. Your wedding party is ready.
