Plan and tasks
Personalized wedding planning: what to do now, and why
Instead of a checklist with hundreds of items, Ring turns your date and the kind of wedding you want into a plan that shows the next step, explains the reason and adapts to the time you have.

An endless list of tasks does not tell you what to do first
Whoever starts organizing a wedding soon finds out there are many decisions and almost all of them have a deadline. Ready-made checklists list everything, but do not say what is urgent for you, what is already settled and what can wait.
And they assume the couple started a year and a half ahead. With six months to go, the same list only adds anxiety: everything looks late.
Ring starts from the opposite end: it asks the date, the kind of ceremony, the size of the party and what is already settled, and builds only what is left, in an order that makes sense. What is not needed yet stays out of the way.
How the personalized wedding plan works
The plan comes from the questions at the start and redoes itself whenever something changes, like the date. All you have to do is look at what is in front.
1
Answer a few questions
Date, city, rough guest count, type of wedding, who is organizing and what is already settled, like the venue, photographer or invitations. What is already settled never becomes a task.
2
Get a plan at your pace
With plenty of time, tasks are spread out and every month stays light. With little, Ring brings forward what matters and leaves the extras aside. The app says which pace it picked and why.
3
Follow the next step
The home screen shows what to do now, with the reason, how long it takes and the deadline. Each task comes with steps to tick off, who is on it and room for notes.

Date changed? The plan redoes itself
If the wedding moved earlier or later, the tasks reorganize on their own. And you add your own, for whatever only your wedding has.
Made so you know what to do without feeling behind
Always with the why
Every task explains why it is there, with the recommended timing, instead of just telling you to do it. Hiring the photographer, for example, comes with the reason it is early.
Adjusted to the time you have
Dates are rules, not a fixed calendar: a task that usually comes 10 months out moves up the line when 7 are left. No cramming everything at the end.
The two of you share it
On each task you mark who is on it: both of you, or one each. Notes, quotes and links stay with the task.
Reminders at the right time
The app nudges you a few days before a task is due, in the morning, in a single notification a day, never one per task. After the wedding, only the ones that matter.
Plan and tasks: frequently asked questions
What should we do first when planning a wedding?
It depends on your date: with a year or more, the venue and the budget come first; with a few months, only the essentials, in parallel. Ring works this out for you from your date and what is already settled, and shows a few tasks each week, each with the reason it is due now.
Does the plan work if there are only a few months left?
Yes. The less time, the more Ring prioritizes the essentials and sets the extras aside. It does not just squeeze the dates: it reorganizes what depends on what and lets independent tasks run in parallel.
Can I add my own tasks?
Yes. With the “+” button you create your own tasks, with a deadline and a category, and they sit in the plan beside the others.
Does Ring recommend what we have already settled?
No. At the start you say what is already settled, like the venue, photographer or catering, and it never shows up as a task.
How do the reminders work?
They are notifications from the phone itself, one a day with tasks coming due, three days before, at 9 a.m. If the plan changes, they are rescheduled. Tapping the notification opens the task.
Do both partners see the same plan?
Yes. The other half joins with a code, and both see and edit the same plan, each on their own phone.
