Everything planners ask before they move over.
Short, specific answers. If something you need is missing, the demo studio will probably show it faster than we can describe it.
- What is the best software for running a luxury wedding on the day itself?
- Most planning tools stop at the plan. Aisle adds a Command Room for the event day: you mark each block started or done, the whole run of show re-times against the real clock, and one-tap plays cover the usual disruptions such as a late ceremony, long speeches or slow service. Instead of pushing an overrun into the curfew, Aisle shows which flexible blocks to trim so the hard stops still hold. Every action is timestamped, so the debrief writes itself.
- How does Aisle protect a hard stop like a music curfew or sunset portraits?
- Each block carries a flex range and can be marked as a hard stop. When time is lost, Aisle absorbs it from the flexible blocks ahead, trimming portraits or reception filler, never the hard stops. If the loss is too big to absorb, it tells you how many minutes will spill and by when, while you can still speak to the client rather than apologise afterwards.
- What does Aisle replace for a wedding or event planning studio?
- The four files most studios still run in parallel: a guest-list spreadsheet, a separate timeline document, a budget sheet, and an inbox thread per vendor payment. Aisle holds all four in one event record, so a change in one place updates the others instead of creating a fifth version nobody trusts.
- How quickly do planners see time back?
- Usually in the first week, because the run-of-show builder recalculates every downstream cue when a block moves, so a rewrite that took an afternoon takes a minute. Budget and vendor tracking pay off from the first invoice cycle.
- Can a couple or a venue see the plan without an account?
- Yes. Studio and Atelier plans include read-only share views and login-free run sheets. You decide what is visible: the full day for your team, only their own calls for each vendor, and only the schedule the venue needs.
- Does Aisle work for galas, brand launches and destination programmes?
- Yes. Weddings are the sharpest case, so the defaults are built around them, and the same modules run galas, brand launches, private dinners and multi-day destination programmes with hard stops of their own.
- Do I need a card to try Aisle?
- No. The 14-day trial starts without payment details, and the demo studio inside the dashboard is open right now with sample event data you can move around.
- How is Aisle priced for a planning studio?
- Per studio, never per guest or as a share of the event value. Solo is $29 a month, Studio is $79 a month with unlimited seats, and Atelier is $199 a month with unlimited events and your studio name on client and vendor pages. The Deliverability Score, margin engine and client area start on Studio. Annual billing saves two months.
- Is Aisle suitable for ultra-luxury and multi-day events?
- It is built for them. Multi-day programmes get their own run of show per day, hard stops per venue, per-vendor call sheets, and a budget that separates committed from paid, which is where six-figure productions usually slip.
