Question 1

Are client galleries and print sales included?

Accepted Answer

Yes, for photographers. Paid photographer plans include client galleries with favorites, downloads, and a gallery store. Send galleries to clients and vendors using the contacts already saved in Colara. Choose your recipients, review the email, and send. No rebuilding a mailing list. Give clients more time for free, or let them purchase an extension at your price. You choose how long their gallery stays available. Photographer Starter includes 1 TB of gallery storage plus 1 TB of archive, and Photographer Unlimited has unlimited gallery storage under fair use. On the Free plan, photographers get client galleries with 3 GB of storage, and gallery store sales carry the same 1% card fee as invoices. Delivery galleries belong to photographer accounts, so planner plans do not include their own, but planners can view the galleries for weddings they are added to.

Question 2

Do I need a credit card to start?

Accepted Answer

No. Planner, photographer, and vendor accounts all start on a free CRM with no credit card and no trial clock. Eligible planners and photographers can opt into a 14-day trial of the full wedding workspace, and couples can use Colara completely free. The optional $99 Couples Pro upgrade is a one-time payment, not a subscription.

Question 3

Is the Free plan really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Free plan is $0 a month forever, with unlimited clients, proposals, contracts, invoices, payments, scheduling, questionnaires, and a branded client portal. Manual payments have no platform or Stripe fee. Online card payments include a 1% platform fee plus Stripe processing; bank payments are 1.5% total, capped at $30. Your clients never pay extra.

Question 4

What do paid plans add?

Accepted Answer

No platform fee on client payments, the full wedding workspace for planners and photographers, AI assistance, automations, text messaging, team seats, and more active weddings. Planner and photographer plans start at $49 a month. Existing paid photographers keep their current subscription rate. Vendor CRM Pro is $29 a month.

Question 5

Can I switch plans later?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time from your billing settings. Changes take effect at the start of your next billing cycle.

Question 6

Is Colara free for couples?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Couples get the full planning toolkit free and can edit all of it: guest list, RSVPs, wedding website, checklist, budget, timeline, vendors, seating chart, questionnaires, and the Command Center. The optional $99 Couples Pro upgrade is a one-time payment that adds the AI assistant, venue layout, unlimited gallery photos (free includes 100), and no Colara branding on your wedding website. It never expires.

Question 7

What happens if I cancel a paid plan?

Accepted Answer

Planner and photographer accounts move back to the Free plan. Nothing is deleted: the CRM keeps working, one active wedding remains available, and the timeline builder stays editable while other paid wedding tools lock. Vendors move back to Vendor CRM Free the same way.

Question 8

Can wedding vendors use Colara for free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Vendor CRM Free includes unlimited leads, clients, jobs, proposals, contracts, invoices, payments, and a client portal at $0 a month. Manual payments have no platform or Stripe fee. Vendor CRM Pro is optional at $29 a month. Invited wedding collaboration is always free, and neither vendor plan creates vendor-owned wedding workspaces.

Question 9

Can I migrate from HoneyBook, Dubsado, or Táve?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and migration is free. Upload your export in the CRM importer and Colara detects the source, maps the columns, and shows a preview before anything is created.
