The Problem
Plan My Wedding (PMW) aims to address several key problems in the wedding planning industry. Firstly, the fragmented sourcing process forces couples to procure products and services from various businesses, complicating and prolonging the planning process. This fragmentation leads to inefficiencies and increased stress for couples trying to coordinate multiple vendors.
Additionally, the sector faces supply shortages and traditional inefficiencies, which exacerbate the challenges couples encounter when organizing their weddings. There is also a significant lack of coordination between couples and businesses, hindering effective collaboration on wedding demands. Furthermore, the industry has been slow to adopt digital transformation, which could streamline planning and significantly enhance the overall experience for couples.
