Is Weddenly a replacement for The Knot?

Not completely. The Knot is a large account-based platform with websites, vendor discovery and registry workflows. Weddenly is a lightweight free toolkit for calculations, lists and exports.

When should I use Weddenly instead?

Use Weddenly when you want a budget, guest list, vendor tracker, checklist, seating starter or generator without creating an account.

Can I keep using spreadsheets?
