WeddingWire Announces Updates to Industry-Leading Mobile Site

New features make it easier than ever to plan a wedding while on-the-go

BETHESDA, MD – July 2, 2012 – WeddingWire.com, the nation’s leading online wedding marketplace, has unveiled exciting updates to their mobile website, m.weddingwire.com, to enhance the user experience and simplify the wedding planning process. WeddingWire has been the leader in developing the mobile web within the wedding industry, launching the first fully mobilized wedding planning site in September 2010, and in March of this year, became the first to offer free mobile wedding websites for engaged couples and their guests.

WeddingWire further expands its mobile footprint through the most recent updates to its mobile platform, which empowers users with more access to its planning features than ever before. Previously, the mobile options included access to vendor search, deals, and local events; however, engaged couples can now view photo galleries, participate in forums, preview real weddings and manage their registries. Additionally, couples can access and manage their budget, guest list and checklist quickly and easily. While registered users have always been able to log in to their accounts via mobile, WeddingWire has now made it simple for new users to sign-up and plan all the details from the palm of their hands.
 
“With more than half of engaged couples regularly using mobile devices to plan their weddings, it is essential to stay at the forefront of mobile planning technology,” says Sonny Ganguly, Chief Marketing Officer, WeddingWire. “The new updates to m.weddingwire.com allow couples to easily connect with vendors and guests via their mobile devices, while managing tasks, budget and more. With the rapid rise of mobile usage in the U.S. and Canada, the WeddingWire team continues its commitment to simplifying the planning process; whether online or on-the-go.”

Dedicated to making planning mobile-friendly, WeddingWire also provides engaged couples with increased ability to search, compare and book over 200,000 reviewed wedding vendors through  applications for the iPhone and Android. By providing engaged couples with increased accessibility to wedding planning tools and resources, WeddingWire continues to remove stress from the wedding planning process, making the experience a more enjoyable one.
