Zola is a US wedding planning site where couples build a free wedding website, run a registry and home store, order invitations and paper, and find venues and vendors.
Most of its savings are tied to wedding milestones, like 20% off registry items once the wedding is over, and most items go back free within 90 days.
Beyond its registry and paper goods, Zola works as an all-in-one planning hub for engaged couples. Its free tools include a guest list manager that imports spreadsheets and tracks RSVPs, meal choices and plus-ones, a drag-and-drop seating chart, a wedding checklist and a budget tracker, all synced with the Zola mobile app.
The registry lets couples mix physical gifts with experiences and cash funds that carry no fees, and group gifting lets several guests chip in on one large item. Gifts can be swapped for Zola credit before they ship. Invitation designs are drawn by Zola's own artists and then customized by the couple, and its vendor directory spans photographers, florists, caterers, bands and DJs, officiants and planners across every US state. A team of advisors called Team-Z answers questions by chat or email.
