I built with AI, but backed it out of the core user experience after talking to real customers.

I built my wedding planning app with a lot of AI help. I m a former wedding coordinator, not a software engineer, so Claude Code and Codex were a huge part of making it real.

But the more I talked to actual couples, the more I realized I was deeper in the AI adoption bubble than many of my users.

Married, Not Broke - The wedding planner that's on your wallet's side.

Other wedding apps are built to funnel you to pricey vendors and registries. Married, Not Broke starts with your budget and protects it. It helps you build a plan using researched pricing benchmarks calibrated for $5K to $20K budgets. No vendor marketplace, no data selling. Throughout, you get guidance that catches hidden costs and helps you plan smart. Because it isn't a sales tool, it honors every choice from DIY to professional and gives honest advice for all of it.

Hi Product Hunters! New solo founder looking forward to connecting

Hi everyone, just thought I would do a quick post to say hello! I'm based in Colorado and just launching my project. Although I've always been agile in learning technology/light code, I would not never gotten my app off the ground without AI coding tools. What a time to be alive! :) Looking forward to connecting with like-minded people and to sharing my app with you all soon for feedback.
