Aisle Planner shares the timeline with vendors as a PDF. PlannedBy gives each vendor a live link to their part of the day.

Nell still has 4:00 PM. To fix it you export again, send again, and hope she opens the new one.

The short answer
PlannedBy, if you wantSwitching
Start the 7-day trial and claim yourstudio.plannedby.com.
Start the run sheet from a template, add your vendors, then duplicate it for the next client.
Straight from Sheets or Excel, or upload a CSV. Households are kept together.
One invite link for the couple, one code for each vendor.
What doesn't come across: run sheets start from a template, not an import, and RSVP answers start fresh. Duplicating a wedding copies your structure and vendor list, never the last couple's guests or details.
Questions
Not in PlannedBy. Each vendor gets a link or a one-word code and sees only their part of the day, always the latest version. In Aisle Planner the timeline goes to vendors as a filtered PDF export, and a vendor who needs more is added to the project with their own account.
Not in PlannedBy. Your couple opens their wedding from an invite link, and you choose page by page what they can see and change. In Aisle Planner, clients create an account on your branded login page after accepting your invite, and you set their access tool by tool.
Yes. Enquiries, proposals, contracts the couple signs online, invoices and payments by card or bank transfer, all from the wedding itself. Aisle Planner has the same set, with online payments through Wedpay in the US and Canada.
For most planners, PlannedBy. Paid monthly, Starter is $29 for 5 client weddings and Solo is $59 for 20, where Aisle Planner starts at $69.99 for 15 projects. Aisle Planner comes out ahead for a bigger team on fewer weddings, because its users are unlimited, and by about $9 a month between 21 and 25 weddings. Try your numbers.
PlannedBy plans include 1, 1, 3 or 10 seats, and Solo and up can add more. Aisle Planner lists unlimited users on every plan, with email and calendar sync included for 2 of them.
Every PlannedBy plan gets yourstudio.plannedby.com, and Team and Agency can use your own domain, like plan.yourstudio.com. Aisle Planner offers custom branding, and its help centre says the Aisle Planner name stays in the web address.
Yes. Paste a guest list straight from Sheets or Excel, or upload a CSV. Run sheets start from a PlannedBy template rather than an import.
No, and nobody needs one. PlannedBy runs in the phone's browser, with the run sheet and seat planner rebuilt for small screens. Aisle Planner's help centre says there is no app in the app stores yet and the site works in a mobile browser.
