Vows & Volts frente a WeddingWire
WeddingWire (part of The Knot Worldwide) is primarily a vendor directory and reviews platform, with significant tooling built for vendors' own lead generation and CRM needs.
- Guest management
- Vows & Volts
- A unified guest ledger with RSVP, dietary tags, and plus-ones. Child guest records are structurally prevented from ever storing a direct email or phone number.
- WeddingWire
- Not the platform's core focus. It's built around vendor discovery, not a couple's guest ledger.
- Vendor booking
- Vows & Volts
- A vendor marketplace with a real booking lifecycle: inquiry, proposal, hire, and completion tracked as one contract record.
- WeddingWire
- Vendor leads and reviews, with a vendor-side CRM; couple-side booking-status tracking isn't the product's center of gravity.
- Security transparency
- Vows & Volts
- A publicly documented 13-layer security architecture with honestly-reported, current test status for every layer, not a marketing badge.
- WeddingWire
- No public, per-layer security architecture or test status.
- Data deletion
- Vows & Volts
- Self-service account deletion with a 30-day, user-cancellable grace period.
- WeddingWire
- Not publicly documented as a self-service, trackable flow.
- Pricing
- Vows & Volts
- Free to create an account and use core planning tools today.
- WeddingWire
- Free for couples; vendors pay for leads/advertising.

Common questions
- Can I try Vows & Volts without creating an account?
- Yes. The seating chart, guest list, table calculator, budget calculator and RSVP tracker all run with no account and no download. Your work is saved in your browser as you go. You only need an account to export it or to keep it across devices.
- Do I lose my work if I sign up after trying it?
- No. Anything you build signed-out moves into your account when you create one: the same tables, guests and seating assignments, in place. That is the whole point of letting you start without one.
- Should I use WeddingWire instead?
- Possibly, and it depends what you need. WeddingWire is strongest as vendor directory, reviews, and lead-generation marketplace, part of The Knot Worldwide. Vows & Volts is a planning product: the guest ledger, the visual floor plan, the vendor booking lifecycle and a publicly documented security posture. Plenty of couples use one for each.
- What does Vows & Volts cost?
- Creating an account and using the core planning tools is free. Paid one-time tiers add things like whole-room automatic floor plan design and AI planning features. There is no recurring subscription for couples.
- Can I delete my data if I change my mind?
- Yes, from your own account settings, with a 30-day grace period you can cancel yourself during. It is not a support ticket you have to open and chase.
