Just in time for wedding season, Loverly and its new Virtual Wedding Planner app -- available via iTunes -- are here to help with what might be the most stressful situation for potential couples. With all the steps that come with planning one's dream wedding, including the costs, a wedding planner is paramount. The wedding planner app can most certainly help for a fraction of the cost.
Loverly Founder and CEO Kelle Khalil believes her company's app has a chance to change what for a long time has been considered a customary and sometimes unnecessary expense.
"It's a huge expense and not necessarily accessible," she says. "With our virtual wedding planner app, we're bringing affordable packages to the masses and providing education, counseling, and friend-like support during one of the most stressful times in their lives."
Khalil believes the financial burdens of planning a wedding can be reduced with the Loverly app.
"In the United States, only 16 percent of couples getting married are having a professional planner to help them create the wedding of their dreams," she says.
The Virtual Wedding Planner is available nationwide and comes in three planning packages and can be purchased with Apple Pay or with a credit card through iTunes. Clients sign up and share wedding day details, start chatting with Loverly staff and move on to optional packages for additional services. All packages include free unlimited on-call chat support with a website concierge. The A La Carte package ($49) also includes budget planning and assistance with registry setup. The Signature package ($299+) includes a custom Loverly-approved wedding style guide, chat support, budget planning, unlimited vendor recommendations, and registry and website setup.
The personal touch the app provides gives clients their own personal wedding planner at their fingertips.
"The interaction between couples and their ... wedding concierge takes place in a way that's most comfortable and convenient to them," says Khalil. "Couples can chat with their personal planners whenever it works for them, because the communication happens through their iPhone."
The Lover.ly website and Instagram accounts also provide visitors with wedding ideas and inspirational photos of real weddings. With immediate access, 24-hour service, powerful tools and nonjudgmental help with wedding plans, the Loverly Virtual Wedding Planner app might just be the best bridesmaid or groomsman a couple has ever had.
