Bridebook is a SaaS and Marketplace scale-up business revolutionising the wedding industry. We are proud to be the UK’s number one wedding planning app and the ONLY global provider! Our mission is to make the wedding planning journey as happy as possible for engaged couples everywhere!
With over 90% of the world’s 7.5bn population expected to get married in their lifetime, the wedding industry is massive. It is 50% larger than the global taxi and food delivery markets combined, yet it sadly lags in digitalisation and lacks solutions for the modern-day needs of both couples and businesses.
So here’s Bridebook, set to disrupt the wedding industry
Our innovative platform is designed to make wedding planning effortless and stress-free. From personalised wedding checklists, budget management tools, a vast selection of venues and suppliers, and endless inspiration – you can access it all at your fingertips, on your mobile device! After recently becoming the first app of its kind to launch globally, Bridebook now enables couples to plan destination weddings anywhere in the world.This exciting expansion makes it a truly fantastic time to join us on our journey!
Our team is made up of talented creative, analytical, and tech-focused minds! We’ve collaborated with some fantastic partners including the Natural History Museum, Hilton, the Ritz, Etsy and Jimmy Choo, and have been featured 12 times on the App Store as well as been rated the number 1 app by Apple. Our investors are well known for supporting some previous successful unicorns such as Airbnb, Pinterest, Skyscanner and Tesla.

Cross-Functional Delivery & Execution:
- Partnering closely with Product Managers and Engineers to frame problems, scope solutions, and balance user value, feasibility, and commercial impact.
- Driving efficient planning and delivery cadences (goals, crits, reviews) to improve predictability and velocity.
- Upholding streamlined processes and documentation that meet Bridebook-level standards.
Stakeholder Influence & Brand Elevation:
- Acting as a thought leader within the senior team, aligning design strategy with company goals.
- Communicating progress, risks, and trade-offs clearly to stakeholders.
