📖 The Hustle
Build a comprehensive Notion wedding planning template with a guest list database, seating chart view, vendor comparison matrix (side-by-side pricing, reviews, and availability), budget tracker with percentage allocations, and a 12-month planning timeline. The average US wedding costs $30,000 and takes 200+ hours to plan. Your $18 template is a no-brainer for couples who want to stay organized without a $2,500 wedding planner.
🚀 First Step
Create a Notion 'Vendors' database with properties for category, cost estimate, actual cost, deposit paid, contact info, and a 5-star rating property, then build a board view grouped by vendor type.
🔑 Keys to Success
- The vendor comparison matrix is your standout feature — create a page template with a table where couples can score vendors on price, style, reviews, and responsiveness
- Include a 'Wedding Day Timeline' template with hour-by-hour slots from 6 AM to midnight so couples can plan the actual event flow
- Launch in January when newly engaged couples (holiday proposals) start planning — engagement season drives 3x search volume for wedding planning tools
