The Binder, a Canva template laid out like the design decks we make for clients. Drop in your images, type over the prompts and change the colors, and you have a polished document to send every vendor.

THE PROBLEM

Most weddings are planned. Very few are designed.

A Pinterest board isn't a plan, and "we want it to feel elevated" isn't a brief. Without a clear point of view, every vendor fills in the blanks with their own taste. A designed wedding has a reason behind every choice. That reason is what makes it feel like you.

HOW IT WORKS

  1. 01

    Think it through.

    Work through the workbook together. Every section ends by telling you which page of The Binder to fill in.

  2. 02

    Build The Binder.

    Drop in your images, type over the prompts and change the colors to yours.

  3. 03

    Send it to every vendor.

    Download it as a PDF. Everyone starts from the same page.

MADE FOR COUPLES WHO

  • Have a Pinterest board but no idea how to make it make sense
  • Want their wedding to feel personal, not trendy
  • Are hiring vendors and want to brief them with confidence
  • Would rather decide once than second-guess every tablecloth

FROM KIMI

I started The Binder Co. because when I was planning my own wedding, I couldn't find anyone who started with who we were instead of what was trending. This is the exact process I use with every couple we design for, written down so you can do it yourselves.
