Private offline wedding app: why Fiancé

No ads, no data resale, no mandatory guest accounts. Local data, optional encrypted sync.

We built Fiancé because "free" wedding apps often monetize your guest list, emails, and photos. Your wedding is not an ad audience.
Fiancé is offline-first: budget, guests, vendors, and seating live on your device. Network is for optional sync or publishing the guest page, not tracking your behavior.

How we differ from typical cloud apps

•
Zero ads in the app
•
No mandatory account to plan (guests included for RSVP and photo QR)
•
Data stored locally by default
•
Client-side encrypted sync if you plan as a couple
•
PDF export (seating, timeline, budget) without vendor lock-in

When offline matters

•
Venue or estate with unreliable signal
•
Day-of: timeline and contacts without 4G
•
Privacy-conscious couples (VIP list, addresses, budgets)
•
Planning on a tablet on a plane or train without Wi-Fi
Your guests should not create an account to answer an invitation. Full stop.

How Fiancé can help

Get Fiancé on iOS, Android, or web. Try the budget calculator, seating chart, and day-of timeline without installing. Turn on sync only if you need it. See our photo sharing page for the guest QR album.
