This Wedding Planner is built on top of Notion, which is a powerful tool that allows you to create, organize, and manage your content in a unique and versatile manner.
At the heart of Notion are "blocks". Blocks can be thought of as the individual pieces of content that you add to your page. They can take the form of text, lists, images, embedded files, and much more. Creating a block is as simple as clicking on your page and starting to type. By typing /, you can access a menu of all the different types of blocks you can create. For example, you can create a text block to write a paragraph, a to-do list block to manage tasks, or an image block to add visuals to your page.
In short, blocks are the building blocks of your Notion pages. As you get more comfortable with them, you'll find they provide a powerful and flexible way to manage and present your information.
