For wedding planners

The first consultation starts prepared — not from zero

Date, budget, style, guest count, venue wishes: couples complete your briefing calmly in advance. The hour-long exploratory call becomes a focused conversation about their wedding.

20 statt 60 minutes of first consultation — because the key facts are settled before the call

Do these phone calls sound familiar?

An hour of exploration, unpaid

The couple gushes about a vintage barn, an outdoor ceremony and 120 guests — and from minute five you wonder whether the budget matches. That hour is unpaid, whether or not it turns into a booking.

The budget surprise at the end

After 50 minutes of dream wedding, the number drops: a budget that would not even cover the venue. Had you known earlier, you would both have saved the hour — or planned realistically.

Details scattered across channels

Guest count from the call, style wishes from three WhatsApp messages, the date from the bride's email, the budget from the groom. Writing the proposal, you piece it all together — hoping you remembered nothing wrong.

How your first enquiry runs with Questee

  1. 1

    Set up the briefing once

    Preferred date (or window), budget bracket, guest count, style as an image choice, venue status, desired scope (full planning, partial planning, day-of coordination). The link goes on your website and Instagram profile.

  2. 2

    The couple dreams in structure

    One question per screen, completed together on the sofa in the evening, with draft saving. The briefing does not feel like an application but like the first step of wedding planning — anticipation included.

  3. 3

    You enter the conversation with a plan

    Before the first consultation you know date, budget, guest count and style. If they do not fit together, you address it constructively instead of discovering it after an hour. If they do, you present fitting ideas straight away — sounding like the right person for the job from the first sentence.

Built for your studio's first impression

Style questions with images

Boho, classic, modern — couples pick what suits them from images instead of describing styles.

Budget brackets

Predefined brackets make the most delicate question easy to answer — and you ready to negotiate.

Conditional logic

Venue already booked? Then the venue questions disappear — the briefing stays lean.

Draft saving

Couples decide some things only after talking it through — the link continues where they left off.

Your branding (Pro)

Logo, colours, your imagery — the briefing feels like part of your studio, not a third-party tool.

GDPR & hosted in Germany

Wedding details are private — they stay on German servers, with a DPA, without the US cloud.

Questions from planning practice

Is a form not too impersonal for weddings?
Not if it is built right: image choices instead of bureaucratic fields, warm wording in your voice, one question per screen — many couples describe completing it as their first lovely planning moment together. It does not replace the personal conversation, it prepares it. With your branding (Pro) it feels like a thoughtful part of your service.
Do couples really state their budget?
With bracket choices, yes — "under €10,000", "€10,000-20,000", "€20,000-40,000", "above" is far easier to click than saying a number on the phone. A short hint ("helps us make realistic suggestions") removes the hesitation. That single answer saves you the most lost hours.
Why not Typeform — that looks nice too?
Visually, yes — but wedding briefings contain very personal things: names, budgets, family constellations, sometimes faith. Typeform stores with a US provider; Questee hosts exclusively in Germany and provides the Art. 28 GDPR DPA. And it costs less: Pro is €12/month with every feature including AI.
Which questions belong in the first enquiry — and which do not?
In: whatever serves qualification and call preparation — preferred date/window, budget bracket, guest count, style, venue status, scope, how they found you. Out: detail questions like flower varieties or menu order — that is material for planning after signing. Ten to twelve questions is the healthy measure.
Is the couples' data protected?
Yes — hosted in Germany, encrypted transfer, tenant-isolated storage, DPA included. Briefings do not sit as plain text in your mailbox or in a US cloud. It gives your privacy notice a clean basis — another professionalism signal to your couples.
Can I use briefings for follow-up appointments too?
Yes — many planners build small additional forms for milestones: vendor preferences before the venue tour, menu and allergy capture for the catering briefing, schedule wishes before the final meeting. Each form is one link — and all answers stay structured per couple.
What if a couple prefers to call right away?
Keep both routes open — but make the briefing the default: "So our first conversation is straight about your wedding, complete our short briefing beforehand (5 minutes)." Whoever really will not, calls; in practice the serious enquiries gladly complete it — and those are exactly the ones you want in your calendar first.
