What the couple sees
The couple sees the Questionnaire, Design Reviews, Guest List and shared Seating decisions. They do not see planner-only budget, vendors, logistics, day-of command or internal checklist work.
What the planner controls
The planner sends the invite, asks the questionnaire, requests approvals and chooses when the couple should help. The portal is not another inbox. It is a structured place for the answers that drive the wedding record.
Why this matters
Couples need clarity, but planners need boundaries. A good portal makes the couple feel included while protecting the operational work that should stay with the planner.
