Easy Weddings alternatives for Australian couples (2026)
What Easy Weddings does well, where it stops for an Australian wedding, and where couples go next.
Easy Weddings is the Australian incumbent. It has been running for more than twenty-six years, it lists more than five thousand Australian venues and suppliers, and the planning tools — checklist, budget, guest list, seating, a wedding website with RSVPs — are free alongside the directory, on the web and in an app on both phone stores.
It is the first place most Australian couples land, and for finding and shortlisting suppliers there is nothing else here with that much local depth. Couples start looking elsewhere later, when the planning stops being about who to book and starts being about running a day: their own pages state there is no tool for sending digital invitations, and that Easy Weddings does not print stationery — its invitations section is a directory of other businesses to contact.
Nothing below suggests leaving the directory. Plenty of couples find their suppliers on Easy Weddings and run the wedding somewhere else.
Easy Weddings is free, and its pages list no paid plan. Based in Australia.
What it does well
What Easy Weddings does well
The directory. More than five thousand Australian venues, services and providers, with reviews and messaging inside the app — this is the reason it exists, and nothing else on this page does it as well.
Longevity. Twenty-six years of trading and a registered-couple count in the hundreds of thousands means the supplier listings are actually maintained, which is the part that decays fastest in a directory.
The free tier is the whole product. Checklist, budget, guest list, seating and a free wedding website with RSVP collection and seventy-plus themes, in one account, with no plan ladder above it.
There are real iOS and Android apps, not a website in a shell.
Where it stops
Where it stops for Australian couples
There is no tool for sending digital invitations. Their page on e-invitations is general advice about other services, so the invitation and the guest list never meet.
Easy Weddings does not print stationery. The invitations section is a directory of other businesses to contact — which is useful, and is a different thing from a product that puts your guests' names on the place cards.
The reviews are mixed in a way worth knowing about. Their Trustpilot score sits at 2.6 out of 5 from 32 reviews, and the iPhone app at 3.8 out of 5 from 443 ratings on the Australian App Store. Small samples, both of them, but they are the public record.
And the planning tools index lists no day-of runsheet, and describes no export beyond saving the seating plan as a PDF — which matters on the day a venue asks you for a spreadsheet.
Alternatives
Australian alternatives
Managing Matrimony
We make Managing Matrimony.
Planning, seating with a floor plan, a day-of runsheet and printed stationery from one Australian company, with real coordinators available for the day itself. Free to start, then a single payment rather than a subscription.
Bridebook
Free with no paid tier at all, and the nicest of these on a phone. Both of you can edit the checklist and guest list from separate accounts, and the wedding website can be password-protected.
Say I do
States an Australian base, free to a generous guest count, and focused on the wedding website, online RSVPs and digital invitations. Paid tiers are a one-time cost.
Centrepiece
Adelaide-made, free to a large guest count, and the only one here that does seating and a floor plan and then prints the signage, table numbers and place cards with your guest list already in them.

Switching
Moving from Easy Weddings
There is no described guest list export, so plan to move it by hand. The quickest route is a spreadsheet: type your list into one, save it as a CSV or Excel file, and import it into Managing Matrimony, which matches the columns to names, contacts, dietary needs and RSVP status.
Your seating plan can be saved as a PDF from Easy Weddings before you go. Keep it — it is the fastest way to rebuild the same tables somewhere else, and it is worth having on your phone on the day regardless.
Leave your Easy Weddings website live until the new one has been shared. There is no cost to running both for a fortnight, and it means an old link on a save-the-date still lands somewhere.
Keep your Easy Weddings account. The directory, the reviews and the messages with the suppliers you have already booked all live there, and none of that needs to move for the planning to move.
Common questions
Common questions about Easy Weddings
Is Easy Weddings free?
Yes. Easy Weddings is free, and its pages list no paid plan. Managing Matrimony is free up to 50 guests, and $99 as one payment after that.
Does Easy Weddings work in Australia?
Yes — it is Australian. The company is based in Victoria, the directory is Australian, and the tools are free with no currency conversion or foreign transaction fee to think about. Working in Australia is the thing Easy Weddings has never had to answer for.
Can I move my guest list off Easy Weddings?
Not automatically. Their pages describe no guest list export, so the move is manual: build the list in a spreadsheet, save it as a CSV or Excel file, and import it into Managing Matrimony, which matches the columns so names, contacts, dietary needs and RSVP status come across together. Save your seating plan as a PDF first — it is the fastest way to rebuild the tables.
Which is better for an Australian wedding, Easy Weddings or Managing Matrimony?
They are answering different questions, and using both is a normal outcome. Easy Weddings is where you find and book Australian suppliers, and nothing here does that as well. Managing Matrimony is where the wedding gets run: digital invitations sent from the guest list, seating with a floor plan, a day-of runsheet, printed stationery with your guests' names on it, and coordinators who work the day. If your suppliers are still to be booked, start there. If they are booked, the work ahead of you is the part Easy Weddings' own pages do not describe.
