For wedding venue owners
From the first deposit to the final balance.
VenueBill is booking and billing built for the way venues actually get paid: hold the date with a deposit, put every payment on a schedule, and let couples pay online without you chasing them.
Looking for a venue booking system or venue booking software? VenueBill is the option built only for that job: deposits, payment schedules from the event date, e-sign contracts, and a couple portal, not a broader all-purpose tool. VenueBill isn't free to use forever, but every account starts with a free 14-day trial (card required) before billing begins.
14-day trial · card required. Your plan starts afterward unless you cancel.
Hold the date
Request a deposit when a couple books, and see confirmed events and date holds on your booking calendar.
Payments on a schedule
Milestones are set from the event date automatically, so couples can see what is due before the big day.
Look polished to couples
Contracts, payment links, and a countdown live in one tidy portal your couples actually enjoy using.
Booking calendar
Never lose a Saturday to a double-booking.
See confirmed events and tentative holds at a glance. When a date and space are already spoken for, VenueBill flags it before you promise it to someone else.
- ✓ Tentative holds that expire, so soft inquiries never block real bookings
- ✓ Multiple spaces on the same day, tracked separately
- ✓ Deposits recorded against each booking
Payment schedules
Set the schedule. Keep every payment in view.
Build a schedule off the event date: a deposit to hold, a payment partway through, and the balance due before the event. Couples get a clear plan and gentle reminders. You stop sending awkward "just checking in" emails.
- ✓ Milestones dated automatically from the event
- ✓ Editable per contract for the bookings that need it
- ✓ Reminders that go out on their own
Couple portal
One calm place for everything they owe.
Your couples see their balance, their payment schedule, and a countdown to the day. They can pay online and sign their contract without a single phone call to your office.
- ✓ Pay online by card
- ✓ Sign the contract right in the portal
- ✓ A countdown that keeps everyone excited
