Does this sound familiar?

The quote that looked cheaper… until delivery and setup were added.

The deposit you're pretty sure you paid. Probably.

The vendor who needs an answer by Friday.

The budget talk that somehow turns into a fight.

You're not bad with money. Wedding pricing is confusing, and nobody hands you a system.

45% of couples say managing wedding spending is the most stressful part of planning.1

Frequently asked questions

Is this a course or a template?

Both. 16 short video lessons, plus the planner they teach. Watch a step, then do it in your own copy.

How long does it take?

The lessons add up to about 47 minutes. You can set up your planner in one evening, then check in for 10 minutes a week.

Do I need to be good with spreadsheets?

No. You type in yellow cells; the planner does the math. Google Sheets (free) or desktop Excel for Windows. Excel for Mac and phone apps aren't tested yet.

Can I use it on my phone?

Watch the lessons anywhere. Use the planner on a computer.

Will it tell me what vendors cost?

No. It doesn't guess prices. You enter your real quotes, and it tracks them against the budget you choose.

Who is the host in the videos?

An AI-generated virtual host introduces some lessons. The steps are real screen demos of the planner, with fictional examples.

What if it's not for me?

Ask for a refund through Hotmart within 7 days. It's a one-time payment of $19, not a subscription.
