Calm tools for a well-run wedding
Wedding planning that fits on one clear page at a time.
Ten Minute Planner makes simple digital tools for couples who want the day organised without turning planning into a second job. Start with the spreadsheet, add the essentials guide when you are ready to shop, and use the live shopping list when it is time to buy.
Start here
Enter your date once, then work through budget, guests, vendors, checklist and the day-of timeline in ten focused tabs.
Use the month-by-month tasks and payment alerts so small jobs do not pile up at the end.
When a task turns into a purchase, check the essentials guide and the live shopping list instead of starting from a blank search box.
