Apps-olute way to wow weddings
The onset of the wedding season also means spending sleepless nights thinking of all the last minute preps for a perfect W-day.
Now planning a wedding can be just a click away, sans mega hassles, thanks to the advent of wedding apps in India. While wedding apps are already popular in the West they are gaining popularity in India too and offering easy alternatives to making wedding planning much simpler.
Neil Patel, founder of a popular wedding app based in the UK, says, "Planning a wedding is really difficult and during the Indian wedding season, thousands of weddings take place everyday. The number of people using smartphones to plan their daily lives is huge, so technologically it's helpful since people are used to downloading apps and buying products on their phones." Bride-to-be Avnika Mohnot says, "These days people are extremely caught up with their daily routine and find little time to physically plan a wedding perfectly, that's where wedding apps can be very handy. However, I still feel the whole fun of a wedding is planning all the events on your own."
Here's a look at some apps that can make wedding planning a lot simpler:
-An app launched in Delhi has everything from a budget planner for each occasion to help manage expenditure and also has a feature which gives all the required information about the traditions and rituals that are an intrinsic part of an Indian wedding, offers information on wedding vendors, decorations, gifts and even helps put together the guest list from the phone itself.
-Available on both android and iOS, there's an app that helps browse through a variety of flower arrangements for the wedding mandap to make the day special.
-Yet another app that comes in handy is one that helps choose wedding outfit. With picture perfect garments which include sarees, lehengas, wedding attire for the groom and jewellery as well, this app even has the contact details, plus prices of all the attires.
Some popular apps in the West
