A Waterford-based man has created a digital platform to help engaged couples manage their finances - and related stress - ahead of their big day.
Wedding Wallet CEO Justin Kearns
Wedding Wallet aims to take the effort out of a prolonged online trawl through providers by connecting brides and grooms to be to wedding vendors that suit their date and budget.
The free tech tool allows the couples to create this budget, and a staged payment plan, through a simple dashboard. Private links can also be shared with family and friends who wish to make contributions.
This additional feature was designed to remove the awkward and insecure handing over of the envelope of the day itself. According to Wedding Wallet CEO Justin Kearns, more couples and vendors prefer this online payment method.
"The rapidly growing Irish wedding industry has seen some innovation in the last five years but critically no innovation where online payment is concerned," he said.
"The typical Irish couple plans their own wedding but as it stands the process of organising such a large and important event is tedious and time-consuming with mistakes often made along the way and budgets often spiralling out of control."
