With love still in the air from Valentine’s Day and summer wedding season quickly approaching, check out these wedding lifehacks from the popular Burner mobile app. Couples can use the app to make the stressful experience of planning their wedding a little easier.

Wedding lifehacks available through Burner Connections

Easy RSVPs: Instead of collecting hundreds of paper postcards via snail mail, simply have your guests text your Burner number with their “happily accept”s and “regretfully decline”s. Burner’s Google Sheets connection will automatically add them to a spreadsheet, keeping you organized in real time.

Guest photo collection: Stop scouring Instagram and Facebook to find photos that your guests took at the event, have them text their pics to your Burner number. The Dropbox Burner Connection will easily collect them all in one folder for you.

Access a wedding guest text message hotline: Busy couples don’t have time to answer last-minute questions from guests who forgot the hotel address or when the cocktail hour starts. Use the Evernote Burner Connection to set up a text message hotline so they can simply text “hotel” to your Burner number and receive all the details in response automatically.

Voicemail “guestbook”: Instead of (or in addition to) a traditional guestbook, ask guests to call your Burner number and leave a voicemail with their well wishes or sharing their favorite story about you as a couple. The SoundCloud Burner Connection will collect your loved ones’ messages on a private SoundCloud playlist, so you can cherish them forever.

About Matthews 1812 House: Matthews 1812 House was started in 1979 in the family farmhouse by Blaine and Deanna Matthews. Named after the year the house was built, they started with two fruitcakes and had two small children at the same time! Soon there were baking racks in the hallways and people sorting apricots and pecans on the dining room table. In 1991 the business moved to a dedicated facility just a mile from the farmhouse. With a carousel oven that rotates, and more room, they expanded from their line of specialty cakes into cookies, bars, and other mouth-watering baked goods.

In 2015, Deanna and Blaine retired, and the business moved into the hands of their younger daughter Cynthia Matthews von Berg. She is now raising a small daughter of her own. Having grown up listening to the click clack of her mother typing out order acknowledgements, Cynthia is dedicated to continuing the high standard of customer service that her family set so many years ago. Matthews 1812 House uses the highest quality ingredients available, and they bake all of their products in small batches in beautiful Cornwall, CT. The family owned and operated business has been around for more than 35 years. The National Weddings Examiner is glad to enjoy the family tradition.
