Features

Everything a venue needs.
Nothing it doesn't.

Ten features. Each one is here because a venue manager asked for it. Every screen tested with real weddings.

01 — Foundation

Event & Calendar Management

Every event in one place, from inquiry to celebration. A calendar you can actually work from, not just look at.

  • Month, week, and list views with drag-to-reschedule
  • Full workflow: inquiry → hold → booked → completed
  • Date holds with automatic expiration to prevent double-booking
  • Duplicate past events as templates for recurring couples

02 — Differentiator

Drag-and-Drop Timeline Builder

The thing no other venue software gets right. Build a wedding day timeline in minutes, tag every entry to the vendors involved, and reuse it as a template next time.

  • Add entries with start / end times, location, notes, and vendor tags
  • Drag to reorder — timeline recalculates automatically
  • Save any timeline as a reusable template
  • Supports pre-wedding day sections (setup, rehearsal, room block)

Vendor Portal (Magic Link)

Vendors get a link. They tap it on their phone at the event. They see only what applies to them. No password, no app to install, no support ticket at 6am on a Saturday.

  • Filtered timeline showing only entries tagged to that vendor
  • Venue directions, parking notes, and load-in details
  • One-tap confirm-attendance button
  • "Viewed at" timestamps so you know who's opened it

06 — Coordination

Coordinator Access

Independent wedding coordinators get their own login. They can jump between all the venues they work at and edit timelines with permission — without you handing out your credentials.

  • Standalone coordinator accounts, independent of any single venue
  • Multi-venue dashboard showing every upcoming event they run
  • Granular edit permissions per assigned event
  • Same magic-link vendor coordination they already understand

07 — Pipeline

Lead Management

The couple fills out an inquiry form on your website. VenCue creates the lead, tracks the source, and pushes it into a kanban you can actually run your sales pipeline from.

  • Embeddable inquiry form for your existing website
  • Kanban pipeline: new → contacted → toured → booked → lost
  • Source tracking so you know which channels convert
  • One-click convert lead to event when they book

Event Checklists & Tasks

Every event follows the same 47-step choreography. Build it once as a checklist template and every future event inherits it — with assignments, due dates, and status.

  • Save reusable checklist templates (setup, day-of, post-event)
  • Assign tasks to team members or vendors
  • Due dates with reminders when things slip
  • See at-a-glance completion status per event

09 — Referrals

Preferred Vendor Directory

Every venue has a mental Rolodex of trusted vendors. Put it on the internet. Couples browse the list, book direct, and everyone looks more professional.

  • Curate a preferred list per category (photographer, DJ, florist, etc.)
  • Rich vendor profiles with photos, links, and your notes
  • Couples browse from within their client portal
  • Optional referral tracking for future partner-tier features
