What it is

Colara is a shared wedding workspace for planners, photographers, vendors, and couples, organized around a live timeline. Its planner workspace brings together timelines, vendors, contracts, couples, and floor plans. A free CRM includes a lead and client pipeline, proposals, e-signature contracts, invoices, payment reminders, scheduling, questionnaires, an inbox, email templates, finances, a calendar, and a task board. The free CRM allows unlimited clients, leads, jobs, proposals, contracts, and invoices, but vendors do not receive an owned wedding workspace. Free-plan online payments carry a 1% platform fee on cards or 1.5% total on bank payments, capped at $30 per payment including Stripe’s fee; manual payments have no platform or Stripe fee. Colara offers an AI timeline builder and assistant, and connects with QuickBooks Online, Google Calendar, Zapier, Make, and webhooks. Its free iPhone and iPad app is available on the App Store. Paid plans start at $29 a month.
