Earlier this month, Google launched a full fledged planning portal for brides and grooms to be. Google Weddings is a destination that houses wedding-specific templates in Google Sites, Google Docs and Picnik for save-the-dates, wedding websites, planning materials, invitations and more. Google has also partnered with wedding planner Michelle Rago to provide tips and guidance on which designs to use. This isn’t Google’s first move in the wedding planning world, the search giant also began offering customized wedding templates in Google Docs a year ago that let users access pre-made documents to track your wedding budget, collect addresses for invitations, compare vendors and much more.
I know it’s a little bit odd for Google to get into the wedding planning space but it will no doubt boost the Google Apps products appeal to twenty or thirty something brides. Being that I actually planned parts of my wedding via Google Docs, I think that these templates will be incredibly useful, especially when it comes to sharing documents with others.
Writing on the Google Blog, senior product marketing manager Lisa Conquergood said that “to help you plan this important day we’ve created wedding-specific templates in Google Sites, Google Docs and Picnik, and gathered tips and tricks for using these and other Google products at google.com/weddings. From wedding websites to save-the-date cards, these tools simplify wedding planning, letting you focus your time on the fun things—like tasting cakes!”
