Wedding apps are a funny breed. We waited for years for someone to create a decent one, while small (and usually slightly buggy) ones hit the app stores in drips and drabs. But they all seemed to result in the same thing – system crashes and loud sighs of disappointment. Surely, having a space on your phone to plan your wedding, save your inspiration, keep tabs on your guest list and track your expenses couldn’t be that hard to create, right!? Oh and we’d like it to be intuitive to use and to be gorgeously designed too please.
Who would have thought it would take so long, but finally, finally, there’s one worth using – and as an Android user I am utterly thrilled that it’s available for both iPhone and Android devices. Introducing Appy Couple.
Appy Couple is more that just another wedding phone app. It’s a completely custom wedding planning tool, a guest concierge service and social network in one. But more than that, it’s one that you and your guests will actually want to use. Both you and your fiancé will have a login so you can both update it, and your guests can use it to learn about your wedding, be introduced to the wedding party and even to get to know other guests before the event!
You also not only get a mobile phone app but a completely custom website for your wedding too which, brilliantly, can be updated on your desktop, laptop or tablet with those updates being automatically pushed to the mobile version. No technical know-how required, their super easy drag & drop system means that even a technological klutz like me could work out how to use it without asking Gareth for help.
I had a play with it this past weekend. Its so intuitive to use, it looks GREAT and it makes me totally wish it was around in 2008 so we could have used it to ease our wedding planning!
There are over 200 gorgeous designs to choose from and many of them are as far removed from traditional wedding schemes as possible. Believe me, there’s not a soft focus rose or dated italic lettering in sight which pleased this picky design freak muchly. This is, by far, one of the most stylish mobile apps I’ve ever used.

Happy mobile wedding planning guys!
Wow, this looks amazing! I need it! xxx
As a bit of a geek and planning obsessive this sounds like the answer to my prayers! (winning a free account would be the icing on the cake…) 🙂
Wow gorgeous ! Finally something both technological and stylish ! 🙂 x
This looks great. We’d love it. X
I totally LOVE the Our Story and website features! It would be amazing to see my wedding planning come together using this app… much better than my spreadsheet! #AppyCoupleRocks
Oh give us a go on that app?! Please? 🙂 Not loving wedding planning right now! x
I need this! Spent the last fortnight researching & looking at Wedding Planning Apps and had resigned myself to relying on good ol google apps but this looks like if could finally be the one!!
Fingers crossed this looks great, using ms word is no the same this would be so much better and help me organise it 🙂
This looks totally awesome! I struggle with getting my very geeky partner involved with planning, but I bet he’d be enthusiastic about this.
oh wow this looks great! what a nice way to share things with your guests, too! i would love to win! 🙂
Oh that looks good!
This looks like such an awesome tool! I would love to use this for my upcoming wedding! We’re in NYC, but all of our guests are traveling from other parts of the country: my fam from the west coast, his from the south. Our families haven’t met, so this definitely seems like a great way for them to interact and get to know each other before the wedding.
Absolutely awesome! $20 seems bargainous but a win would be amazing! xxx
It seems a very usefull APP! Hope to win it!
I was lucky enough to get into the beta for this app and as a reward myself and my guests have free access now it is live. It really is so easy to use and I am just in the final stages of adding all my guests so I can get the app invites out. The best thing is the real life countdown, 8 months today eep! I also love the fact your guests can use this to RSVP and pick their menu as well as travel information. You really can put all the info you need in there. xx
I couldn’t wait, downloaded, looks awesome!
Hope you like it Ali, i think its awesome!
To say I need the assistance of this app is an understatement. Sounds like a dream come true for someone like me who spends all her time on the computer and is having to integrate into the real world, with real people to get her nuptials sorted! X
Looks amazing! Planning a UK/US wedding is proving to be pretty difficult, and it looks like this ap would seriously help! #AppyCoupleRocks 🙂
Would love to use this app for my rock and roll country wedding! Fingers crossed..
This is so pretty!
This is so pretty! Makes me want to get married now.
THANK YOU ALL!!!! You guys are SO inspiring. It’s comments like these that make us want to do more and more!!! Any ideas, please send them our way!!!

O PLEEEAAASSSE, this is so awesome! Would LOVE TO WIN!
This app looks like it will take the stress out of the months leading up to our wedding – if I wave my phone around the barn will it also set up the tables and chairs and decorate the place?!
HAHA Caroline, if only!
I was just talking about wedding apps last night and wondering if there was actually a good one out there, this looks very promising!
I could really use a non-buggy crashing app to help keep all my ducks in a row!
Really like the idea of this app! Been looking for a wedding website we can share with our friends. This would be dead handy for keeping overseas guests informed. The cost of stamps now is criminal! Would love to try out a free account 😉 x
As an iPad and iPhone user I need a laptop to get this app to work. I am not sure why this is any better than having a Facebook event page for the wedding?
Would love to give this a try, looks awesome 🙂
Looks awesome would love this so much ^_^
Oh my goodness, totally love it!
This looks amazing! So glad I hopped over here today to check this out. If I don’t win, I’ll definitely have to think about signing up!
We just booked our venue yesterday–we would LOVE this!
This app sounds too good to be true, being a wedding newbie all the things ill have to organise is overwhelming! Hopefully this app will be everything and more!
EXACTLY what I need!
I never knew such apps exist. Cool if it works as it should! I’ll give it a try. Thanks for sharing!
It seems that I am one of the few men in the comments but here go’s. 😉
I have check the app before and its a great app. Hope to use it for our wedding.
Would love to win!
We read about Appy Couple in a magazine and decided to give it a go. We couldn’t be more pleased with it. The interface is really user friendly and the designs are great. Plus the fact that all our guests will be able to take pics throughout the day and post them directly to the website is so exciting. It gives our guests a hand in creating our memories of the day, which we think is just so special. Would definitely recommend it to other brides-to-be.
This app would be an absolute god send to help with planning our wedding! Looks fabulous, fingers crossed x
This looks great, H2B is a massive technophile so I might actually convince him to get involved in planning with this!
I’m 40 years old, and missing that ingrained woman instinct to put different colors, patterns, and cutesy decor together to make them look fabulous together! My woman card is seconds from being revoked!
I’m struggling to put together my vow renewal. My hubby and I have been ecstatically married for 17 years this year! We pawned out TV back in 1996 for $75.00 and eloped in Laughlin,NV! It was cheesy and done right beside a pool of screaming kids and middle aged suffering moms and dads on vacation at the Super 8 motel. It lasted 5 minutes….for $75.00! Ugh!
Yeah, I need this app! I refuse to have a repeat of that. Which is what will happen if I try to plan our vow renewal free style! Thanks!
What an amazing app! I have been searching endlessly for the perfect wedding planner app for quite some time. I would absolutely love to be one of the lucky winners.
Kat – did you find out who won the accounts?!
Hey Caroline
The winners email addresses have been sent to Appy Couple now so they will be in touch with them soon!
This sounds cool! A very convenient way to plan and update things for the wedding. Nice!
What a great idea! I will definately be downloading!
