Event planner
On Saturday, you're on the ground. The rest of the week, your quotes sell themselves.
A bride-to-be writing "how much to plan a wedding?" deserves better than "it depends". With Fiitsa, her inquiry arrives qualified (date, venue, guest count, budget), your quote goes out line by line, and the deposit lands via Orange Money or Wave while she's still excited about your proposal.

You know these struggles
"How much for a wedding?" with zero details
You can't price anything without the date, venue, guest count and budget. You ask the questions one by one, the conversation drags over three days, and meanwhile the bride is already talking to another agency.
Quotes that take an hour to build and die without an answer
Venue, catering, decor, DJ, photographer, day-of coordination: you build a full quote, send it... then silence. Without organized follow-up, you'll never know if it was the price or just life. And you don't have time to chase everyone manually.
Late deposits block your vendors
Until the couple pays their deposit, you can't confirm the venue, the caterer or the DJ. The good vendors for December Saturdays go fast. Every day of waiting is a risk of having to renegotiate everything.
Ten conversations for a single wedding
The bride in one chat, her mother in another, the caterer, the decorator, the chair rental guy... Two weeks before the big day, you scroll through hundreds of messages to find who confirmed what. A forgotten detail on a wedding Saturday is unforgivable.
What Fiitsa changes for you
A form that qualifies every inquiry from A to Z
Formulaires WhatsApp →Event type, target date, venue, guest count, approximate budget, desired services: the WhatsApp form asks your questions for you. You open every conversation already knowing whether it's a 500-guest wedding or a 30-person birthday.
Itemized quotes line by line, as a PDF with your logo
Documents IA →Venue, catering per head, decor, entertainment, day-of coordination: your quote comes out clean, dated, with the payment schedule in black and white. That's what separates a professional wedding planner from a well-meaning auntie.
Staged deposits collected via Mobile Money
Paiements WhatsApp →30% at signing, 40% two months out, balance one week before: each installment has its own Orange Money, MTN MoMo or Wave payment link. The money arrives in time to lock in your vendors, and every payment generates an automatic receipt.
Automatic follow-ups and countdown
Automatisation →Quote unanswered for 5 days? Polite automatic follow-up. Payment due in a week? Reminder. D-30, D-7, D-1: the couple receives milestone updates without you thinking about it. You stay focused on the event at hand.
A client and vendor database worth gold
CRM →Every event is on record: the couple, the budget, the vendors used, the documents exchanged. Wedding anniversary in a year? Automatic message. The bride's cousin gets engaged? She already knows who to call.
Your customer's journey, for real
- 1
The bride-to-be taps your Instagram link or QR code. The form asks for the date, venue, guest count, budget and desired services.
- 2
She gets an immediate first reply with your packages (day-of coordination, partial planning, full service) and a few photos of your best weddings.
- 3
After your discovery call, she receives her itemized PDF quote line by line, with the payment schedule and 7-day validity.
- 4
She approves and pays her 30% deposit via Wave or Orange Money through the secure link. The date is locked, your vendors are confirmed.
- 5
Installment reminders go out on their own, and at D-30, D-7 and D-1 the couple receives milestone updates: fitting, tasting, rehearsal, day-of schedule.
- 6
A week after the wedding: congratulations message and review request with the best photos. A year later: happy anniversary. And word of mouth does the rest.
Frequently asked questions
What deposit should I ask to lock a wedding date?
Standard practice is 30% at signing, non-refundable, because locking a Saturday means turning down every other couple for that date. Then 40% midway and the balance one to two weeks before the big day. With Fiitsa, this schedule appears on the approved quote and each installment has its Mobile Money link: no more chasing transfers.
How do I handle vague requests like "plan me a beautiful wedding"?
That's exactly what the qualification form is for. Before you even reply, the client has specified their date, venue, guest count and budget range. You immediately spot the serious couple with an 8 million budget versus the person dreaming of a 300-guest wedding with 500,000 FCFA. You answer both well, but not with the same time invested.
A couple cancels three months before the wedding. How do I protect myself?
With what's in writing. Your approved quote states your terms: non-refundable deposit, sliding fees depending on the cancellation date, amounts already committed to vendors. When the couple accepted those terms before paying, a cancellation is still a hard moment, but no longer a word-against-word conflict in front of the families.
Can I also manage my vendors in Fiitsa?
Yes. Your vendors are contacts like any other: caterers, DJs, decorators, equipment rentals, each with their history, negotiated rates and your exchanges. For every event, you know who's confirmed, who received their deposit, who delivers what and when. The day-of brief goes to everyone in a single campaign.
My weddings mostly come from word of mouth. What's in it for me?
Word of mouth brings you the contact, Fiitsa converts it. A referred couple that receives within ten minutes a clean form, photos of your work and a professional quote signs much faster than with voice notes and prices given verbally. And every successful wedding recorded in your CRM becomes a referral source you can nurture, instead of just hoping for.
Does Fiitsa take a commission on my services?
No, 0% commission. On a 5 million FCFA wedding, every franc collected stays with you. You pay a flat subscription, that's it. On event budgets like these, a 5% commission would be 250,000 FCFA: enough to cover your subscription for a very, very long time.
