Planning Backup
& Restore

WeddingIdea.ca keeps Planning Studio information in your browser instead of requiring an account. Export one backup file so your guest list, budgets, vendors, documents, notes, payments, inspiration and visual plans are not tied to a single browser session.

The JSON backup includes only WeddingIdea.ca Planning Studio data currently saved in this browser. Keep the file somewhere you control.

Export after major guest-list, budget or vendor updates.
Store the file somewhere separate from this browser.
Export again before changing devices or clearing browser data.

Bring a saved plan back

Choose a WeddingIdea.ca backup file. Recognized sections in the file will replace the matching information saved in this browser.

Export the current plan first if you may want to return to it.

Browser data control

Clear the Planning Studio from this browser

This removes recognized WeddingIdea.ca Planning Studio records such as guests, budgets, vendors, document/notes records, payments, saved inspiration, seating and run sheets. It does not affect the website itself.

Why backup matters

Local browser storage is private and convenient, but it is not a cloud account

Planning Studio data can be unavailable if you switch browsers or devices, use a private/incognito session, clear site data or lose access to the device. The backup file gives you a manual recovery path without requiring WeddingIdea.ca to hold your planning information on a server.

01

Before a new device

Export the full plan from the old browser, then restore it after opening WeddingIdea.ca on the new one.

02

Before browser cleanup

Export first if you plan to clear cookies, site storage or browser profiles.

03

After major milestones

A fresh backup after final RSVPs or major vendor bookings is more useful than a months-old copy.

04

Keep control

The downloaded file may contain guest and wedding planning details, so store and share it deliberately.
