Changelog
What we shipped, and when.
Wedding software has a habit of launching once and going quiet. This page is our answer: every meaningful change, dated, in plain words. If something here isn’t true of the product you’re using, tell us — that’s a bug.

The privacy promise, shipped
- —We wrote the promise down: a plain-language privacy promise page, and a homepage section to match — we never sell your data, never sell your guests’ data, never show you a vendor ad, and you pay once.
- —Export everything: Settings now downloads your entire plan — guests, budget, timelines, vendors, layouts, and your wedding-site content — as a zip of clean CSV files. One click, no email gate, no request form.
- —Account deletion now offers that full export first, then deletes immediately. No emailed codes, no retention runaround.
- —Fixed: the wedding-site editor preview could drift from the published site when your Style Studio palette changed after a save. Both now read one shared theme source, and the editor tells you when your palette has moved on instead of silently showing colors your guests don’t see.
- —The homepage “With Altessa” panel is now the real budget component rendered live, not a screenshot — it can’t go stale again.

A real wedding, open for inspection
- —The live demo: Maya & Jordan’s actual wedding — a $22,000 budget, 111 guests, 16 vendors, a fully seated floor plan — browsable with no signup. Read-only at the database level, not just the buttons.
- —Version history: Altessa now snapshots your whole plan twice a day when something changed, and before every restore, so restoring never loses anything.
- —Honest comparison pages — vs. the spreadsheet, The Knot, and Zola. Each one says what the other side is genuinely good at before making our case.
- —A free timeline generator joined the free budget template: enter your date, get the full booking-order timeline. No account for either.
- —Repriced the demo wedding to $22,000 — closer to what most couples actually spend.

Liquid glass
- —A new control language across the whole app: polished glass buttons, progress channels, and panels in warm cream — controls you can almost feel.
- —The homepage hero got its marquee: a quiet stream of real product cards drifting behind the headline.
July 5, 2026
The ceremony gets its own room
- —Ceremony builder: rows, aisles, and seat-aware exports — the Layout Builder now plans both rooms of the day, not just the reception.
- —Seat monograms, names on seats, seat-level guest assignment. Also: a grand piano.
- —Blog posts now publish themselves on schedule.

Read us before you trust us
- —The blog opened — starting with the honest guides to wedding spreadsheets and planning apps.
- —Every public page is now prerendered to real HTML at build time: faster for you, legible to crawlers and AI engines.
- —Wedding sites picked up theme colors derived from your Style Studio palette, with readable text guaranteed on every background.
- —The Vendor Guide got its booking-order grid: who to book first, at a glance.

Under the hood
- —Route-level code splitting: the layout canvas and the PDF engine now load only when you use them.
- —A security pass: row-level-security coverage verified across every table, admin gates tightened, and 38 dead files deleted.
