Wedding Planner Guide

How to Automate Expense & Receipt Tracking as a Wedding Planner

You just sent a $1,200 deposit to Bella Flora on Venmo and handed a check to the venue. Now those receipts are lost in your camera roll while the Johnsons ask for a budget update. Digging through apps to find vendor payments takes about 4 hours every month.

The Current Reality

The Manual Way

Saving screenshots, downloading bank PDFs, and typing amounts into a master spreadsheet for each wedding by hand.

4 hours per month
  1. Take a photo of the physical receipt or screenshot the Venmo confirmation
  2. Open that wedding's Google Sheet on your laptop later
  3. Type in the vendor name, date, amount, and category
  4. Attach the image file to the right row in Drive
  5. Do this for every vendor payment across all your active weddings

Got it. I added $2,500 to the Johnson Wedding Budget sheet under 'Venue Deposit'. The remaining venue balance is now $1,500.

Perfect. Also, can you tell me how much we have left in the decor budget for them?

After that deposit, the Johnsons have $3,200 left in their Decor & Flowers category out of the original $8,000 allocation.
