Quick Navigation


We've been working on something special for you. After months of development and countless hours of testing with real couples, we're thrilled to announce that the WedStay app is officially live on the App Store.

This isn't just another Wedding Planning Timeline app. We built this because we know how frustrating the venue search process can be. The endless emails. The hidden fees. The venues that look nothing like their photos. We wanted to change all of that.

What Makes the WedStay App Different

WedStay App - Find Private Wedding Estates

When we started building this app, we had one goal: make finding your dream wedding venue actually enjoyable. Not stressful. Not confusing. Enjoyable.

Here's what you get when you [download

The World's First Venue Swiper

Think of it like your favorite dating app, but for wedding venues. Swipe right on estates you love. Swipe left to pass. Your favorites sync automatically across all your devices, and you can share them with your partner instantly.

No more endless scrolling through generic venue listings. No more keeping 47 browser tabs open. Just swipe, save, and share.

See Real Prices Upfront

This is the feature couples tell us they love most. Every venue on WedStay shows transparent per-event pricing. Not vague "starting at" numbers. Not "contact us for pricing." Real numbers you can actually plan around.

WedStay App - Transparent Pricing

And we're not talking about per-night rates that leave you guessing what your total will be. Our pricing includes:

  • 2-night minimum stay (because you need time to set up and celebrate)
  • Exclusive property use (the entire estate is yours)
  • All event spaces included (no surprise fees for using the garden)
  • Event insurance provided (one less thing to worry about)

The Wedding Budget Calculator

Planning a Wedding Budget is overwhelming. We get it. That's why we built a smart calculator right into the app that helps you understand the true cost of your wedding weekend.

Enter your guest count, your preferred dates, and your must-haves. The calculator shows you exactly what you're looking at—no surprises, no hidden fees showing up three months before your big day.

Save and Compare Your Favorites

Found a stunning California vineyard estate and a charming Texas hill country ranch? Save them both and compare them side by side. See how they stack up on price, capacity, amenities, and location.

WedStay App - Save Favorites

Couples are telling us this feature alone saved them hours of back-and-forth. One couple in Denver told us they saved over $8,000 by being able to compare venues side by side before making their decision.

Request Bookings in Minutes

When you find the one (the venue, that is), requesting a booking takes about two minutes. Fill out a simple form, and our team responds within 24 hours. You get a dedicated point of contact from your first inquiry all the way through to "I do."

WedStay App - Instant Support

No more wondering if your email got lost. No more playing phone tag with venue managers. Just simple, straightforward communication.

By the Numbers

We're proud of what we've built, and the numbers show why couples are loving the WedStay app:

  • 100+ curated venues across the country and beyond
  • 10 to 400 guests capacity range
  • $6,700+ average savings compared to traditional venue booking
  • 24-hour response time on all booking requests
  • $0 to download (yes, the app is completely free)
  • 5.0 rating on the App Store

  • California (Napa Valley, Sonoma, Malibu, Palm Springs, and more)

Every single property in the app has been personally vetted by our team. We've visited them. We've checked the photos against reality. We've confirmed the pricing. No catfishing here.

"Finally! An app that shows real prices. We found our dream estate in 2 weeks."
— Sarah M., Los Angeles
"The swipe feature is addictive. We literally planned date nights around it."
— Emily & James, Austin
"Saved us $8K by comparing venues side by side. The calculator is a game changer."
