What entities are required for a wedding-management application?

The entities a wedding-management application needs depend on its approved scope. A useful starting model separates account identity, wedding organization, planning work, and guest attendance so each concept has a clear purpose.

Model accounts and wedding membership

A user represents a signed-in account. A wedding represents the planning space. A membership connects a user to a wedding and records an allowed role, such as organizer or collaborator.

This separation supports a person participating in several weddings without treating their role as universal. It also gives server-side permission checks a place to look up the relationship between a user and the requested wedding.

Separate events, guests, and invitations

An event describes an occasion with a name, schedule, and venue details. A guest represents someone on a wedding's guest list; the person may not need a registered account.

An invitation links a guest to the events they may attend. An RSVP response records attendance choices, often for each invited event. Keeping these concepts distinct avoids assuming that every guest attends every event or that sending an invitation means receiving a response.

Keep planning tasks independent

A task represents work such as confirming a photographer or arranging transport. It can belong to the wedding and optionally reference an event, with a due date, status, and permitted assignee.

Tasks are different from invitations and attendance responses, even when one workflow creates another. Add entities such as vendors, budgets, or attachments only when the product requires them.

Ask AI to test the proposed model with sample scenarios, including multiple organizers and event-specific attendance. Then review which relationships, uniqueness rules, and deletion behaviors are needed before implementing the first feature.
