About This Automation

Timeline and run-sheet management turns event details from couples and vendors into a coordinated day-of schedule. Doing this by hand means constant re-typing, scattered vendor replies, and conflicting change requests that are easy to miss.

An automated version drafts the timeline, tracks vendor confirmations, and reconciles conflicting requests before rebuilding the master sheet. The result is a synced calendar, timely reminders, and a final run sheet everyone receives on time.

Key features
Builds a first draft run sheet automatically from intake details and prior wedding templates
Sends the draft to every vendor and tracks who has confirmed
Flags the exact line items each vendor wants changed
Detects and highlights scheduling conflicts across vendor requests
Rebuilds the master run sheet the moment changes are approved
Pushes updated times to the shared calendar and sends day-of reminders automatically

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Event Detail Update Loggedtrigger

Whenever a planner updates wedding details in the shared Google Sheet, the automation picks up the change instantly.

2. Draft Timeline With AI

The Timeline Draft rebuilds the run sheet using the venue, vendor list, and ceremony details on file.

3. Email Draft To Vendors

The updated draft is sent to every vendor on the job with a clear deadline to reply.

4. Parse Vendor Replies For Conflicts

Vendor Coordination reads incoming replies and flags any times or requests that clash with the current plan.

5. Resolve Conflicting Edits

The lead planner reviews flagged conflicts and makes the final call directly.

6. Sync Master Run Sheet And Calendar

Run Sheet Sync updates the master Google Sheet and pushes new times to the shared.

7. Send Day-Of Reminders

Sends timed SMS reminders to vendors and the wedding party ahead of the event.

8. Distribute Final Run Sheet

The finished run sheet is posted to the team channel so everyone works off the same version.
