1. Who is Helena?

Helena is the brand new AI Wedding Planning Assistant on houseofweddings.com, designed to help engaged couples with their wedding planning and finding the right suppliers.

2. What can you ask her?

You can ask her all kinds of questions about every aspect of your wedding plans, such as:

• Planning my wedding. How do I do it?
• How do I choose a photographer that suits our style?
• Do you know any wedding venues in the Ardennes where we can also stay overnight?
• We want an eco-friendly wedding. Which suppliers would be suitable?
• What is the difference between a wedding planner and a master of ceremonies?

And so on!

3. How exactly does Helena work?

Helena is not a regular AI assistant. She is trained to really understand couples. She does this by asking targeted questions and making suggestions based on your answers. She thinks along with you, even if you are not yet sure what you are looking for.

Imagine: You are planning a wedding for around 80 guests in Ghent. You love honest, local products and are looking for a caterer who can cater to your needs. You open houseofweddings.com and ask Helena:

"Do you know a good caterer in Ghent who focuses on local products?"

Helena responds immediately:

• She asks if you already have a wedding date or period in mind
• She asks about your style or wishes (formal, walking dinner, vegetarian, etc.)
• She checks whether you have already chosen a venue
• She then shows you a selection of caterers that perfectly match your preferences.

And Helena goes even further:

• She explains what to look for when choosing a caterer
• She shows you pictures and specific information
• She helps you request a quote or get in touch with the caterer right away
• And all that in one smooth conversation.

Whether you have one question or would like step-by-step guidance, Helena from House of Weddings adapts to your pace and style.

4. Why Helena is useful

Helena is fast, personal, free and available 24/7. She asks the right questions about your wedding, filters suppliers according to your preferences, and helps you send a quote or contact request right away. Without waiting times or choice overload, she takes the endless searching off your hands. No overload of options, just targeted and honest suggestions based on your wishes and quality. Because at House of Weddings, our mission is to make planning your wedding even easier and more stress-free.

Please note: a real wedding planner will of course continue to provide couples with the most creative inspiration and most personal care - also thanks to their physical presence on their wedding day. But for those who do not want to or cannot work with a wedding planner, House of Weddings now facilitates the planning process with Helena.
