Rob Farrow was an experienced marketing executive and his wife Christina Farrow was a successful professional wedding planner. They discovered there was no good software for wedding planner pros, so they decided to build software themselves. They invested their savings, built a loyal team, and started Aisle Planner to serve other wedding planner pros with a complete solution to power their businesses. 

Aisle Planner grew slowly as they overcame huge obstacles, listened to their customers, and built world-class software that changed how events are managed. Aisle Planner is now the leading all-in-one software for wedding planners and event professionals with over 4000 customers. 

After struggling through the COVID-19 shutdown several times, Rob and Christina decided to sell Aisle Planner to Fullsteam, a software holding company. They stayed for several years to meet their earn-out commitments and run the company with the same team. 

Quote from Rob Farrow, co-founder of Aisle Planner

”There’s a very fine line between arrogance and ignorance. And somewhere in there is where I was living in this. When we started, I was so sure we would succeed that I ignored obvious signs of failure. I just believed wholeheartedly. I believe in myself, I believe in my wife, and I believe in our team. 

“If you have that belief, you can achieve things. And I know that sounds very cliche, but you have to have that belief. If you’re doing it for the right reasons, you’ll have that belief. If you’re doing it to get rich quick, you won’t.

“There’s a bunch of obstacles that you don’t even know are coming our way. With that mindset of belief and just forging ahead, you’re ready for any obstacle. They’re not obstacles; they’re just things you deal with.”
