The 5 Most Efficient and FREE Wedding Apps

5 Efficient and FreeWedding Apps

      Let's face it- we do everything while on the go.  We're busy and trying to multitask our lives to death in order to save a little extra time, effort and money that could be well spent on other, way more fun things.  

     So, to help the wedding planning couples, here's my list of the 5 BEST and most efficient wedding planning & organizing apps. (Yes, I could have added a ton more and given you a list of 20 or so- because believe me, there are enough out there.  There are oodles of apps for wedding photos, songs, dresses, etc., However, after actually trying this multitude of apps and being budget conscious myself, this was the list I came up with for being the best, free, fun and efficient wedding apps...


Wedding Wire
 1. Wedding Wire- If you are a newly engaged bride-to-be or just dreaming of the day, guaranteed you are already well aware of Wedding Wire.  

If you already have an account with Wedding Wire, even better. You can actually link into it via the app so that all of your current info is accessible and saved.

The app offers planning inspiration with their photo galleries and forums, view your local wedding vendors along with over 2 million newlywed reviews and you still have access to other tools like guest lists, RSVP's and manage your wedding checklist as you attack each "To Do".


The Knot Wedding Planner
2. The Knot Wedding Planner- One of the largest and most popular bridal and wedding planning websites in their own right, The Knot's app offers you the same convenience in syncing with your tools and account info while you are on the go!  
     Couples can access real wedding and vendor photos for inspiration, find and contact vendors as well as access their reviews and portfolios all within the app.
     Keeping track of your personalized checklists and budget tools make planning your wedding and finding inspiration is a little less overwhelming and a lot more "doable".

3.  2life Ultimate Wedding Planner-  
2life Ultimate Wedding Planner
     A cute, all encompassing app for the bride and groom to-be.  The app allows you to sync across multiple devices (so that you and your groom are on the same page) as you both tackle the "big day" with more of a team planning attitude.  Its shared calendar feature also makes it easy to keep each other in the loop when it comes to important meetings, dates and appointments.  Communication in the journal area and the ability to manage lists together in real time makes this app excellent in the productivity department.

     Inspiration isn't excluded either, as this app also lets you view photos and inspiration from real vendors as well as comment, add notes and bookmark  favorites.  

iWed Planner
4.  iWedPlanner-  Complete and simple wedding task features at your fingertips.  This app is definitely tops when it comes to productivity. With features such as checklists, a calendar to track appointments and meetings with vendors, a budget tracker, seating arrangements, RSVP tracking and your gift registry at your fingertips; the logistics of your wedding planning are all easily accessible.

     Inspiration is also accessible, though maybe not center-stage, with websites and vendors to browse mixed with the app's separated features/folders for your photos, hairstyles, links and other various ideas you come across in your search. The app is more on the simple side of all of the apps listed but ranks high in efficiency and keeping your head on the task at hand with reminders and tips along the way.


5.  Appy CoupleThis app marries fun and functionality.  This adorable app functions as your own wedding website complete with over 500 cute layout choices! Photo sharing with you and your guests also allows for so many more photo album opportunities to choose from!
     Managing your RSVP's, events, personal stories of the couple (how you met, your engagement, etc.,)  all comes in the cutest of packaging (for those of us that like cutesy ;) for efficiently getting those task lists done but also enjoying the ride with your guests and wedding party along the way! 
     Added benefits for your guests include having your own "guest concierge" for accessing maps, travel, flights, things to do, all while being able to personally message with your guests back and forth via chat.

Now remember, I'm just the girl who downloaded ridiculous amounts of wedding apps, just to try and see which worked the best, which should be thrown out and which I'd actually use.  These, are the few I'd actually use- if I weren't of course already married. ;) P.S.  IMO- if all you need is the inspiration part of these apps- you probably already have the best one on your device..... Pinterest is still tops for organizing boards for dress ideas, themes, cakes, boards that only you and your bridesmaids can pin to, you name it- all while having access to unimaginable amounts of other pins/ideas/shares of other brides and dreamers just like yourself.. Just a thought... xo
