How to Use This Tool

- Review & Share: Check your Dashboard for a complete overview, generate your invitation, and print or save your full report.
Why Use This Tool
Planning a Shaadi usually means juggling a budget spreadsheet, a guest list in one app, vendor contacts in another, and a separate invitation maker — this Studio brings budget planning, guest and RSVP management, catering estimates, vendor and payment tracking, a checklist, a timeline, and a bilingual Urdu/English invitation generator into one workspace, built around Pakistani and Indian wedding events like Mehndi, Nikah, Baraat, and Walima specifically.
How It Works
Every event, guest, expense, and task you add is calculated with simple, transparent deterministic formulas — total budget versus planned cost, remaining balance, guest counts per event, catering cost per head. Nothing is looked up automatically and no price is ever assumed on your behalf; your invitation and WhatsApp text are generated entirely from what you type, right in your browser.
Key Features
Unlimited custom wedding events with their own date, venue, guest count and budget. A full budget planner with 20 categories, custom categories, and a contingency calculator. A guest list manager with family grouping, Bride/Groom side, per-event attendance, and an RSVP tracker with filters. A catering cost calculator with separate adult/child pricing, plus a menu planner. A venue comparison tool. A unified vendor and expense tracker covering décor, dresses, jewelry, photography, makeup, transport, accommodation, and gifts, with quoted/final cost, advance paid, and status. An 8-template wedding invitation generator supporting English, Urdu (right-to-left), or bilingual output, with WhatsApp-ready text and a one-tap share link. A wedding checklist with three phases, a timeline with overdue/today/upcoming grouping, and a master dashboard with budget alerts.
Common Use Cases
A family in Lahore planning four separate events — Mehndi, Baraat, Walima, and Nikah — each with its own guest list and budget, tracked in one place. A couple in Delhi generating a bilingual Hindi-friendly-format English/Urdu invitation and sharing it directly on WhatsApp. A family tracking advance payments to five different vendors and seeing at a glance who's still owed money. A bride comparing three venue options side by side before booking.
Tips for Best Results
Add your events first, since guest lists, catering, venue, and vendor entries all reference them. Set your contingency percentage early — most experienced planners recommend keeping 10-15% of your budget unallocated for last-minute costs. Use the Vendor & Expenses category dropdown consistently so your Dashboard's budget breakdown stays accurate. Generate your invitation only after your event details are finalized, since the date, time, and venue pull directly from what you've entered.
Wedding Planning Guide
How to make a wedding budget
Start with a realistic total budget, then break it down across categories like venue, catering, décor, and outfits — leaving a contingency percentage unallocated for unexpected costs is a common practice among experienced planners.
How to divide wedding expenses
Many families split costs by category or by side (bride's family vs groom's family) according to their own tradition and agreement — this tool lets you track costs by category and by event without assuming any particular division.
How to estimate catering costs
Multiply your confirmed guest count by your price-per-guest, with separate rates for adults and children if your caterer offers them — always confirm final headcount close to the event date since catering is usually one of the largest expenses.
How to organize a wedding guest list
Group guests by family where possible to speed up counting, tag each guest's side (bride, groom, or both), and assign them to specific events since not every guest attends every function.
How to track RSVP
Update each guest's RSVP status as responses come in — Pending, Invited, Confirmed, Declined, or Maybe — and use the filters to quickly see who's still unconfirmed close to your event date.
How to plan multiple wedding events
Give each event — Mehndi, Nikah, Baraat, Walima, or any other — its own budget, guest count, and venue, since expenses and headcounts often vary significantly between functions.
How to control wedding expenses
Track planned versus actual cost for every vendor and category, and check your Dashboard regularly for over-budget alerts before costs get out of hand.
How to track vendor payments
Record the quoted cost, final cost, and advance paid for every vendor as you book them, so your remaining balance is always visible before final payments come due.
How to prepare a wedding checklist
Work through tasks in three phases — before the wedding, event preparation, and final week — and add any custom tasks specific to your own family's traditions.
How to create a WhatsApp wedding invitation
Fill in your event and venue details in the Invitations tab, generate the WhatsApp text, and either copy it or tap Share on WhatsApp to send it yourself — nothing is sent automatically.
Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, add each event you're having in the Events tab, and every other module — budget, guests, catering, venue — can be linked to a specific event.

Update each guest's RSVP status as they respond, and use the Bride/Groom side and RSVP filters in the Guests tab to see who's confirmed, pending, or declined.
