Brides and planners alike will love this new iPhone app for event planners called Super Planner, released this past week by industry expert Howard Givner. I've downloaded it already and am impressed by the easy-to-use format and the detailed information that will make logistics planning a breeze.
Imagine visiting a wedding venue you're interested in and being told that the per person pricing is $150++. The first plus (+) is for service fees, and the second is for tax. Most venues tax the service fee. In order to help you budget accordingly, you'll need to find out how much you are really paying per person after service fees and tax. Plug your headcount, the $150 per person charge, your tax rate and service fee percentage into the Super Planner app, and instantly you'll find the real charge per person.
Wondering how much alcohol to buy or how many hors d'ouevres to plan on during cocktail hour? The app does that, too.
Trying to determine how many guests you can fit into the ballroom? Choose your table size and enter the room's square footage and you'll have an answer instantly.
What size linens should you order for the dinner reception? You'll get those answers, too!
Finally, set the perfect table with Super Planner's place setting diagram.
I have a feeling that I'll be using this App so frequently, it's worth the $9.99 charge. If you're ready to try it, download the app in the iTunes store either online or on your iPhone. Already tried Super Planner? We'd love to hear what you think of it!
