What changed, and what comes next
VowLedger currently tracks 84 source-linked named-venue price records. This page records material changes so couples can see when the library, scanner and methodology move forward.
Latest data refresh
September 13, 2026 · 84 named-price records. Public price records retain a direct source link, pricing basis and individual check date. Local ranges without a direct venue source are labeled as modeled estimates.
September 13, 2026
Trust, scanner review and public-price refresh
- Added a public contact route, response-time target, plain-English methodology and independence statement.
- Expanded the named-price library with official 2026 public venue and ceremony pricing while preserving source, scope and check dates.
- Added clearer document-reading confidence, scan feedback and operational event signals without collecting quote text or prices.
September 12, 2026
Quote comparison and hidden-fee audit
- Expanded venue quote normalization, plus-plus estimates, payment-risk screening and hidden-fee questions.
- Added required line-by-line review before venue rankings are shown.
September 11, 2026
City cost guides and source-linked explainers
- Published city venue-cost pages and practical guides for service fees, minimums and blank-slate comparisons.
Public roadmap
- Grow the source-linked named-price library with official venue pages and consented, anonymized quote observations.
- Improve complex-table and low-quality image review while keeping on-device scanning the default.
- Evaluate an optional consent-based assisted scan only after its privacy, retention and cost rules are documented.
- Publish regular data-refresh notes and expand local coverage where enough trustworthy observations exist.
Priorities can change as couples report confusing results. Suggest a correction or report a problem.
Independence rule
Vendors cannot pay to change a benchmark, move above another venue or suppress a correction. If advertising or optional paid features are introduced later, the core planning tools and data-ranking rules stay separate from payment.
