Getting started

1. Create your studio

   Visit Create your studio. You receive your own subdomain, free lead tracking, and starter wedding activations — no card required.

2. Complete studio setup

   Open your Studio Portal and work through Getting Started: company name and logo, services, booking phases, inquiry form, and availability. The checklist marks each step done when you save.

   Where: Studio Setup → Company, Services, Booking Phases. Booking and Packages → Inquiry Form, Availability.

3. Publish your inquiry form

   Embed or link your inquiry form on your website. Submit a test inquiry yourself so you can see how a new couple appears as a wedding in your pipeline.

   Where: Booking and Packages → Inquiry Form. Copy your public link or embed code from Share & Embed at the bottom of that page.

4. Review packages and pricing

   Add at least one package on your rate card so you are ready to quote inside a wedding after wedding activation is active. Wedding Financials, invoices, and payment collection require activation — free inquiries do not include in-app pricing.

   Where: Booking and Packages → Packages & Pricing.

5. Work your first wedding (free)

   Every inquiry gets a wedding workspace. Move booking stages as you talk with the couple. They receive a light couple portal — date, venues, and The Story of You — at no cost while you decide whether to book.

   Where: My Business → My Weddings. Use the Dashboard pipeline counters to filter by status.

6. Activate the wedding when ready

   When the couple is ready for the full portal, activate the wedding on that wedding ($15 per wedding; solo monthly maximum $60; team maximums $99 / $149). Activate inside Studio or see pricing.

   Where: Open the wedding → full wedding workspace card, or My Business → full wedding workspace.
