Introducing The Wedding Tech Stack | AdExchanger
Briefly

David's Bridal has evolved into an AI-powered technology company, significantly impacting the wedding planning sector. Approximately 90% of US brides engage with David's Bridal throughout their planning process, either online or in-store. The company has initiated a digital transformation strategy called 'Aisle to Algorithm', introducing the Pearl Planner platform. This platform automates wedding planning tasks and connects users with vendors while generating revenue by charging vendors subscription fees. David's Bridal aims to enhance personalized experiences for brides while maintaining market relevance and customer loyalty post-wedding.
Today, David's Bridal is as much an AI-powered tech company as it is a retailer of wedding apparel and accessories. Around 90% of brides in the US interact with David's Bridal at some point as they plan their wedding, whether online or in-store. To take better advantage of its unique market position, David's Bridal launched a digital transformation strategy known as 'Aisle to Algorithm', focusing on personalized digital experiences. Pearl Planner, a wedding planning platform that automates tasks and connects couples to vendors, is central to this initiative and operates like a SaaS business that charges vendors for subscriptions.
The only thing it doesn't do is 'deal with your mother-in-law,' jokes president Elina Vilk, who describes Pearl Planner as 'the OpenTable for weddings.' David's Bridal generates revenue from this planning platform while providing it free to users by charging vendors a subscription for access to brides during their wedding planning process. This model ensures vendors are presented to brides at the most relevant moments in their specific journey.
