I was happy to get a prompt reply, but I find it incredibly provincial to be so US-centric in 2026. I’m referring to the fact that people outside the U.S. can’t send money to your customers’ honeymoon... See more

We made a mistake on our end

We made a mistake on our end. I reached out immediately asking for someone to respond. It took more than 24 hrs to get a response. I emailed a reply as soon as I heard from someone, an additional 48 hrs has gone by. I am unhappy with the level of customer service.

Quick fix and reprint

There was a mistake with the design of invitations I had ordered but they fixed the problem and sent the replacements for free. Super helpful and quick to sort everything out.

After ordering

After ordering, I wanted to change my order not long after. It was impossible. Could only talk to a robot that was not helpful. Next day the gift was shipped and impossible to stop. I thought that disappointing.

Reply from The Knot

Hi, we completely understand why this felt frustrating. When timing is important, not being able to quickly update or stop an order can be really disappointing, especially when the support experience didn’t feel helpful in the moment.

While we’re glad the order moved quickly through processing and shipping, we understand that in this case, it didn’t give you the flexibility you needed after placing the order. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us.

Easy to use the site. Prompt response to my email. Unfortunately was not able to send funds from anywhere but the USA.

The Knot reported that I accepted the rehearsal dinner but not the wedding. Can't go back and look (has been corrected now) but somehow I blame this on the way it was presented - really not that bad at online answering. The whole thing of wedding preparation has gotten ridiculous.

We’re glad it has now been corrected, and we appreciate the feedback around how the RSVP flow was presented. Wedding planning already comes with enough moving parts, so we understand the importance of keeping things as simple and clear as possible.

Many great features, only one gripe

There are so many great features of The Knot! It really covers all steps to wedding planning from A-Z. It helped with a timeline, vendor suggestions, stationary, a website, and more! My only gripe was with the checklist. Some of the checklist items were out of order or had a super far out due date. The checklist page would also refresh any time any editing was done, which delayed the process quite a bit.

Hi, we appreciate you sharing this feedback. We’re sorry for the confusion around the RSVP response and understand how frustrating it can be when the checklist and planning tools don’t feel as intuitive as expected.

We’re glad the RSVP issue has since been corrected, and your comments around checklist ordering and page refresh behavior are being shared with our product teams as we continue improving the planning experience.

I have a problem with your partner…

I have a problem with your partner Hotel Engine, and no one seems able to help me. Grace from the Knot emailed me this morning and reiterated that she couldn't do anything.
Here is my response to Grace. I want the amount that Engine charged to my account reversed.

Thank you for your response.
I have already contacted your partner, Hotel Engine, and they said they can't do anything about this, that the only thing I can do is cancel my reservations and book directly with the hotel. This is not right. The rooms at the hotel have now risen in price so that is a lousy option. Your partner is representing the Knot very poorly!
The charge to my account is not $800, it is $2571.66. That is a large amount to prepay, and I would like your assistance in resolving this with your partner since they said they couldn't help. Someone has to be able to handle this!
Please help me get this prepayment reversed. Thank you in advance.

Hi, we’re sorry to hear how frustrating and stressful this situation has been, especially given the size of the charge involved. While Hotel Engine manages its own reservations and payment policies directly, we appreciate you sharing your feedback regarding the support and communication you received while trying to resolve this.

Your concerns have been shared internally with the appropriate teams for further review.
