Acuity Scheduling

EverywhereBridal integrates with Acuity Scheduling as a replacement for the built-in appointment system.

When any appointments is booked via Acuity, the appointment details are used to create a Customer in EverywhereBridal. When the customer actually visits the store, you can use the already created customer to save time.
