What file formats will I get?

You'll receive .xlsx spreadsheet files (one per tool) plus a PDF quick-start guide. Everything downloads instantly after purchase — nothing physical ships.

Do these work in Google Sheets, or only Excel?

Both. The files are built as standard .xlsx workbooks, which open natively in Microsoft Excel and import cleanly into Google Sheets (File > Import > Upload, then choose "Replace spreadsheet" or "Insert new sheet(s)"). Full step-by-step instructions for both are in the quick-start guide.

Can I get a refund if I change my mind?

Because these are instant digital downloads, we're not able to offer refunds once the files have been downloaded — this is standard for digital products on Etsy. If something isn't working right or you're stuck on setup, please message us first. We'd much rather help you get it working than have you left unhappy.

I don't use USD/GBP — can I use my own currency?

Yes. Every sheet has an editable currency symbol setting, so the trackers, dashboards, and calculators all display in whatever currency you use — ZAR, USD, EUR, GBP, or anything else.

Is this financial, legal, or tax advice?

No. These toolkits help you organize and see your own numbers clearly — they're not financial, legal, or tax advice, and nothing in them tells you what to charge, how much tax to set aside, or how to handle a lease or contract. For anything specific to your situation, please check with a qualified professional.

How does delivery actually work?

Etsy emails you a download link the moment your payment clears, and the files are also available anytime under Etsy's "Purchases and Reviews" page in your account. No waiting, no shipping.

Can I use this on my iPad or phone?

You can log entries on the go using the Google Sheets mobile app -- that part works fine. But the dashboards, charts, and calculators are laid out for a bigger screen, so we'd recommend doing the setup and reviewing your numbers on a laptop or desktop for the best experience.

Do I need to buy anything else, or pay a subscription?

No. One purchase, yours to keep and reuse every year. You just need Excel or a free Google account to use Google Sheets.

Plan your wedding budget, timeline, and guest list with confidence — 3 spreadsheets, 1 guide, works in Excel or Google Sheets.

Between vendor quotes, save-the-dates, RSVPs, and a hundred small decisions, it's easy to lose track of what's actually been done, paid, or confirmed. This toolkit gives you three ready-to-use spreadsheets that handle the budget math, the planning timeline, and the guest list — without a subscription app to learn or a tangle of half-finished notes. Fill in a few settings, update it as you go, and let the formulas and dashboards do the rest.

Built for engaged couples, not event planners. No jargon, no complicated setup, no subscription.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

• Wedding Budget Tracker — set your total budget and 14 editable spending categories, log every payment and deposit, and watch a Dashboard build a spend-by-category chart and a budget-vs-actual chart automatically, with your total spent and what's remaining at a glance.
• Wedding Planning Checklist — a pre-built Timeline of 60 common wedding tasks across 7 phases (12+ Months Before through Wedding Week), with a status dropdown per task and a progress % that updates itself. A Vendors sheet tracks quotes, deposits, and balance due for every vendor you book.
• Wedding Guest List Tracker — a 200-row guest list with RSVP status, meal choice, and table assignment per guest, plus a live headcount of confirmed "Yes" replies. A Seating sheet lets you set table capacities and automatically flags any table you've over-booked.
• Quick-Start Guide (PDF) — a friendly walkthrough covering setup for each sheet, a simple weekly routine, and an FAQ.

WHO IT'S FOR

Engaged couples, wedding parties, and anyone helping plan a wedding who wants one clear, simple system for tracking the budget, the to-do list, and the guest list — without hiring a planner or learning new software. Also a thoughtful, practical engagement gift for a newly-engaged friend or family member.

A NOTE ON CUSTOMIZING

Every category, task, status, and meal choice in this toolkit is a starting point you edit directly on the sheet — nothing is locked down. Add a guest, a vendor, a task, or a budget line any time by adding a new row; the dropdowns and formulas pick it up automatically.

FORMAT & DELIVERY

This is an instant digital download — no physical item ships, and there's nothing to wait on. You'll receive .xlsx spreadsheet files (work beautifully in both Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets — full setup instructions for both are in the guide) plus a PDF Quick-Start Guide. Files are yours to keep and reuse for the whole planning process.

Currency-friendly: the Wedding Budget Tracker and Wedding Planning Checklist both use an editable currency symbol, so this works whether you're budgeting in USD, GBP, EUR, ZAR, or anything else.

A quick note on refunds: because this is a digital product delivered instantly, we're not able to offer refunds once the files have been downloaded. If something isn't working right or you have questions getting set up, please message us first — we're glad to help troubleshoot or make it right.

This toolkit is a budgeting and planning aid, not financial or legal advice — for anything involving your finances or requirements like marriage licenses, please check with the relevant professional in your area.
