A physical wedding journal will cost you $50–$70.
It can't run a formula.

A professional wedding planner starts at $1,500 for day-of coordination, $5,000–$10,000 for full service.

The closest spreadsheet alternative on the market is nearly $70 — and only works properly in Google Sheets.

This is $15. It works in Excel and Google Sheets. And it comes with a companion guide.

The Wedding Project Manager is a 15-tab Excel system and PDF guide that treats your wedding like the major project it is — because that's what it is. A $38,000 average budget. Fifteen to thirty vendor relationships. A hundred-plus guest logistics. A date that doesn't move.

Most weddings don't go wrong because of bad vendors. They go wrong because nobody had a system.

What you get

A PDF companion guide covering what no wedding magazine will tell you — how to read a vendor contract before you sign it, why the guest list is actually a budget document, what to do in the final weeks so the day itself isn't a logistics exercise, and how to manage the stakeholders with opinions about your wedding who aren't paying for it.

A 15-tab Excel system that runs the whole project:

Dashboard — budget committed vs remaining, RSVPs confirmed, pending decisions and outstanding thank you cards, all calculating automatically.

Budget and Payments — every vendor category pre-loaded, every payment tied to a milestone, the hidden costs flagged before you're ambushed by them.

Vendors and Quotes — side-by-side comparisons before you commit, contract status tracked, every supplier's details in one place.

Guest List and Seating Plan — RSVPs, dietary requirements, table allocations, and the politically complicated placements you need to stop revisiting.

Day-Of Run Sheet — pre-loaded from 6am to midnight. Edit it, share it with every vendor and every bridal party member, and then let go.

Name Change — pre-loaded with every organisation to update after the wedding, in priority order.

Download both files instantly after purchase.

There are beautiful journals on the market. Some of them are genuinely lovely. None of them can tell you, in real time, what you've committed versus what you've paid, or flag that three vendor payments are due in the same week.

$15. Because it shouldn't add to the problem it's trying to solve.

Plan the wedding. Keep your sanity.
