End-to-End Solution
Wedding planning often meant juggling vendors, guest lists, and endless back-and-forth, leaving couples stressed and planners overwhelmed. I studied the entire journey from early planning to on-the-day execution and identified where technology could reduce friction. I designed intuitive dashboards for budgets, guest tracking, and timelines, along with live updates and communication tools to keep everyone connected. This end-to-end solution cut vendor coordination time in half and tripled guest engagement.
