Automatic follow-up for wedding and event planners
A planner can follow up automatically by timing messages to the stages of planning: after a consult, before a payment or decision is due, and after the event. AI drafts each message from what you know about the client and the event. It also chases vendors for confirmations so you are not doing it by hand.

Leads and consults
After a consultation, a short recap of what you discussed and the next step shows you listened. If there is no reply, a second note a week later with a relevant example or an open date often restarts the conversation.
Deadlines that always slip
Clients forget decisions: menu choices, final headcount, seating, the playlist. A schedule of reminders tied to the date of the event keeps these moving without you chasing.
Vendors are the same. A confirmation request two weeks out and a final check a few days before catches the florist who thought it was Sunday.
After the event
A thank-you, a request for a review and a note a year later on the anniversary keep the relationship alive and may bring referrals.
Parents, venue managers and the wedding party often pass your name along. A brief, gracious note to the couple’s family and the venue contact a week or two later is cheap to send and easy to remember.
Picture this
Examples of what it can look like. Illustrations, not clients.
Six weeks out, the couple gets a short list of the three decisions still open and the date each is due.
The rental company has not confirmed delivery. A reminder goes out with the address and the load-in time.
The rules that apply, in their own words
“unfair or deceptive acts or practices in or affecting commerce, are hereby declared unlawful.”
“header information that is materially false or materially misleading.”

Questions
Will clients feel nagged?
Not if each message is short, clear and tied to a real deadline.
Does it follow up with vendors too?
Yes. Vendor confirmations are one of the best uses.
