Where you spend your time

Your time is money

We know how your week actually goes

Most wedding planning studios are not short on couples wanting to book; they are short on hours in the week. Enquiries, proposals, vendor bookings, guest lists, and payment chasing all land on the same desk at once.

Actionist builds AI agents for Wedding Planning that handle your digital work, so your planners can spend the season with couples and vendors, not spreadsheets.

What matters to you

First reply wins the couple
Engaged couples message several planners at once; the fastest thoughtful reply usually books the consultation.
Vendors booked before they're gone
The best photographers and venues in your area hold dates for days, not weeks.
Guest lists that stay accurate
A seating plan built on stale RSVPs causes problems the week of the wedding.
Deposits and balances paid on time
A missed vendor deposit deadline can lose the date entirely.
A calm, on-schedule wedding day
The run-of-day only works if every vendor has the same timeline.
Built around your studio
These are examples. Build a custom agent for any job you repeat.

And hundreds of other tasks you do manually..

An agent can take a lot off your team's plate. Take a look below to see the time and cost you could save by adding AI agents to your Wedding Planning team's day.

Triggers and Reactions

Your Agent wakes up Automatically whenever something happens

WhenA couple submits an enquiry formfires within about a minute

The agent automatically

The moment a couple fills out the website enquiry form, the agent reads it, checks the wedding date against your calendar, and drafts a warm reply with the pricing guide and two open consultation slots. Every message waits for your one-pass approval before it reaches the couple, so the fastest studio to reply stops winning the booking by default.

Trust & control

You stay in control

An AI agent works in a studio's real systems, with couples' most personal details and vendors' money moving through it, so staying in control matters. Actionist is built to be supervised, and every step is recorded for you to check.

You set the supervision

Choose how much each agent does on its own, from drafting for your approval to handling trusted routine work. Anything destructive, like cancelling or deleting, always asks first, and that cannot be turned off.

Approve from your phone

Agents can reach you over Telegram or Slack, so you approve a reply, a reminder, or a post with one tap, from a venue walkthrough or a Saturday wedding.

Every run is logged

Each run is recorded step by step, with screenshots and a full transcript, so you can see exactly what the agent read and did.

Your data stays yours

Credentials are encrypted in a vault and never shown again, memory stays on your own machine, and you can self-host Actionist on your own server.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Will it actually reply to a couple's enquiry the way I would, or will it sound robotic?

You teach it your tone once, the warmth, the pacing, the questions you actually ask on a discovery call, and it writes from that. The agent reads a new enquiry within about a minute, matches it to your pricing and availability, and drafts a reply that offers two consultation times. Until you trust it fully, every reply waits for your approval before it reaches the couple, so nothing goes out that doesn't sound like your studio. A warm reply in minutes instead of hours is often the difference between booking a consultation and losing the couple to a planner who answered first.

We run everything through HoneyBook. Can it actually work inside that, or do we need to switch systems?

It works inside HoneyBook, Dubsado, 17hats, or whatever your studio already runs, because Actionist operates the screen the way you do, reading and clicking through the actual interface, not relying on a vendor-built integration that may not exist. There is no need to migrate your client management system or change how your team already works. If a tool has genuinely no way in, that's rare, and it's usually still reachable this way, because AI agents for wedding planning built on Actionist are not limited to apps with a public API.

Will it ever message a couple or a vendor without me seeing it first?

Not unless you decide it should. Actionist uses Approval Modes: Suggest (drafts everything for your review), Ask each time, and Guarded auto for routine, low-risk work you trust it with. Anything destructive, cancelling a vendor, deleting a file, is always confirmed first, and that setting cannot be switched off. You can approve a reply, a reminder, or a post from your phone over Telegram or Slack in one tap, so control never means sitting at your desk.

Enquiries and vendor emails come in at all hours, especially evenings and weekends. Does it work outside office hours?

The desktop agent works whenever your computer is on and the app is open, so evenings and weekends are already covered if you leave it running. For coverage while your laptop is closed, the hosted cloud runtime keeps agents working around the clock on a paid plan, so a Saturday-night enquiry still gets a same-hour reply instead of waiting until Monday.

Is this going to replace me or my coordinators?

No. It takes the admin, the inbox triage, the RSVP chasing, the deposit reminders, so your planners can spend their week with couples and vendors, not a keyboard. The relationship, the taste, the calm presence on a wedding day, that's the craft couples are actually paying for, and no agent does that. What it removes is the grind that keeps a talented planner from having time for it.

Can I build an agent for the way we specifically run weddings, not just what's shown here?

Yes. Every team and job on this page is an example, not the limit. If your studio has its own way of running a styled shoot, chasing a particular vendor's contract terms, or building a destination wedding travel packet, you can brief a custom agent for exactly that job, in plain English, the way you'd brief a new coordinator. Most studios start with one or two of the examples here and add custom agents for their own quirks as they go.

We hold sensitive details about couples, guests, and payments. How is that protected?

Credentials are encrypted in a vault and never shown again once entered. Memory and context stay on your own machine rather than a shared cloud database, and Actionist never trains its models on your data. Every action an agent takes is logged step by step with a full transcript, so you can see exactly what it read and did with a couple's information. A self-host option exists if your studio wants full infrastructure control.

I'm not technical and I don't have time to learn new software during peak season. How fast can this actually be running?

No code, ever. You brief an agent in plain English the way you'd brief a new hire, connecting an app like HoneyBook or Gmail is a guided one-minute step, and most studios have their first agent handling real work the same day. It's built to be run by a wedding planner, not an engineer.

What does this cost, and is it actually worth it for a small studio?

Pricing scales with how many agents you run and whether you add the hosted cloud runtime, so there's no single number that fits every studio; the demo walks through what fits yours. The real math is the hours back: a studio running just a handful of agents for wedding planning can get an entire planner's week of admin off the desk, hours that go straight back into vendor relationships, styled shoots, and the couples who booked you for your taste, not your inbox.
