How it works
Plan. Celebrate. Remember.
Wedding planning doesn't all happen at once. Start with the essentials, unlock the complete planning experience when you need it, then — as the wedding approaches — add Wedding Day for the moments your guests will help you remember.

Planning Pass
Plan the whole wedding.
Suppliers and their contracts in one place. A day-of timeline everyone can follow. Replies arriving where your guest list already lives — and your invitation and gift list ready when you are.
One purchase gives you the complete Elysian planning experience, from the earliest preparation through the final wedding-day organisation. It is just as useful if your invitations come from somewhere else — the standalone RSVP link works either way.
- Every supplier, contact and contract detail together
- A timeline for the day, hour by hour
- RSVPs collected and answered in one list
- A standalone RSVP link, no Elysian invitation required
- Publish your invitation for guests
- Your Gift List, with your own registries and links
- Your Gift List links to your own registries and cash-fund services. Elysian never receives, holds, processes or distributes gift funds — every gift is made with the third-party provider you have chosen.
When the wedding gets closer
Add Wedding Day.
Your photographer captures the wedding. Your guests capture everything around it.

Added to Planning Pass
Photo Studio
Photo Studio gathers your guests' photographs privately, as they take them. They scan a card, choose a picture, add a few words — no app, no account, no chasing anyone afterwards.
A private wedding collection
Every photograph your guests take, gathered in one place — only for you.
Guest uploads by QR or link
A card on the table, a link in a message — that is the whole set-up.
Gallery management
Review what arrives, hide anything you'd rather not keep.
Wedding Day is the beginning of Elysian's guest experience for the celebration.
Wedding Day
Capture the celebration.
+ $59
Added to Planning Pass. One payment, for one wedding.
- Photo Studio — your guests' photographs, privately
- Guests add photographs by QR card or link
- No app to install, no account to create
- Simple to contribute during the wedding itself
- Your own gallery to review, hide and keep
- Up to 25 GB of Photo Studio storage per wedding
Wedding Day is added to a Planning Pass.
Wedding Day doesn't replace Planning Pass — it extends it, for the celebration itself.
Afterwards
It doesn't end on the day.
Your Elysian space stays with you past the wedding, so you can return to the details, the replies and the photographs.
Through your wedding, and for 12 months afterwards.
Paid Elysian access runs up to your wedding date and for 12 months after it. If your wedding date changes, the access period follows the new date. Elysian is not a permanent hosting service, so please keep your own copies of anything you want to hold on to.
25 GB of Photo Studio storage per wedding.
Wedding Day includes up to 25 GB of Photo Studio storage per wedding, for the photographs uploaded through Photo Studio. If that allowance is reached, everything already uploaded stays available to view and download — new uploads may simply pause. Elysian will not delete your existing media just because the limit has been reached.
A recovery period after access ends.
When paid access ends, Elysian may keep your content for a 90-day recovery period. During that time the service may offer limited access or export rather than the full product. After the recovery period, stored content may be permanently deleted in line with our retention policy — so please export anything you want to keep before it ends.

Questions
The things couples ask.
- Is Elysian a subscription?
- No. Elysian is designed around one-time wedding purchases. Nothing renews, and there is nothing to remember to cancel.
- What can I do for free?
- A great deal, and properly. Your wedding space, guest list, Seating Planner, Budget and the Essential Planning Journal are all yours on Free, and you can design and preview invitations, with no artificial limits.
- What does Planning Pass include?
- Everything in Free, plus the complete Planning Journal, Suppliers & Contracts, the Day-of Timeline, RSVP collection, a standalone RSVP link, invitation publishing and your Gift List.
- Can I publish invitations with Planning Pass?
- Yes. Designing and previewing are open to everyone; publishing your invitation for guests is included with Planning Pass.
- Can I collect RSVPs without using Elysian invitations?
- Yes. Planning Pass includes a standalone RSVP link you can share however you like — printed cards, another invitation service, or a message.
- What is Wedding Day?
- An optional add-on for the celebration itself, focused today on Photo Studio: the photographs your guests take, gathered privately in one place.
- Do I need Wedding Day to plan my wedding?
- No. Planning Pass is the complete planning experience on its own.
- Can I add Wedding Day later?
- Yes — that is the intended journey. Plan first, and add Wedding Day as the celebration approaches.
- Do guests need an app for Photo Studio?
- No. They scan a card or open a link, choose a photo and send it.
- Do guests need an Elysian account?
- No. Guests never sign up — not to share a photo, and not to reply to an invitation.
- Are there guest limits?
- No. Invite as many people as your wedding holds; Elysian doesn't count heads.
- How long do I have access?
- Paid access runs through your wedding date and for 12 months afterwards. If your wedding date changes, the access period follows the new date. Elysian isn't a permanent archive, so do keep your own copies of anything precious.
- How much storage does Wedding Day include?
- Up to 25 GB of Photo Studio storage per wedding, for the photographs your guests upload through Photo Studio. If the allowance is reached, everything already uploaded stays available — new uploads may pause, but nothing is deleted because of the limit.
- Can I get a refund?
- Your statutory rights as a UK consumer always apply, and we look at every request properly — including anything faulty, misdescribed or charged twice. Our Refund & Cancellation Policy explains how to ask and what happens next.
- What happens after the wedding?
- Your Elysian space stays with you through the access period above, so you can return to the details and the memories. Nothing renews on its own, and a pass never quietly becomes something else.
Begin where it suits you.
Start free today. Choose a Planning Pass when your wedding asks for one, and add Wedding Day when the celebration comes into view.
