Planning a wedding is hard work, or so I assume. The closest I’ve ever been to wedding planning is watching Bride Wars and Made of Honor and I don’t think that counts. What I did learn from these movies, however, is that it can be a stressful time for the couple as they decide on every aspect of the event. From the gift registry to the seating chart, you will need some help in keeping track of progress and expenses, making sure you don’t miss anything. There are different journals you can use but what if you could have it all in your phone? Now there are wedding apps that help you organize everything you need so that 1. You have everything handy and 2. You don’t forget anything. If you’re in the middle of planning your big day, download some of these apps to get you started.
BG Bridal Gallery
Find inspiration for your big day with BG Bridal Gallery. Once you have your ideas in place, you can meet with one of their experts who will help you plan your wedding. Through the app you can also find venues, photographers, makeup artists, and flower services just to name a few. Kimi Juan has been using this app, making sure everything is in place while she travels.

Mint
Sticking to your budget can be difficult whether you’re planning an extravagant or an intimate wedding. There are a lot of expenses to consider so keep track of everything with Mint. You can segregate your budget into categories and it will alert you if you’re running out of funds and exceed your limit (hopefully it doesn’t come to that).

Veri
Hashtags being used on wedding photos make posts from the night viewable to anyone who was there. However, you can still miss moments taken by your guests if they forget to use the hashtag or typing errors occur. You can use Veri to create an album with all the pictures taken by your guests. They can share photos in real time and they are saved in the app. Once your wedding is done, sharing is stopped and you have a complete photo album.
