Wedding Vendor Aggregator Website

I’m building an online platform that brings together every kind of wedding service provider in one place. The core of the site will be a searchable, filterable directory where couples can browse vendor profiles, read genuine reviews, and shortlist favourites. Both vendors and customers will have their own accounts: vendors need dashboards to edit listings and view feedback, while couples will need a personal area to save vendors and post reviews.

At this stage, the must-have features are:
• Responsive front-end design that feels welcoming to brides, grooms and planners alike.
• A robust back-end for creating, editing, and moderating vendor listings and reviews.
• Secure registration and login for two user types (vendors and customers) with clear role permissions.
• Admin panel so I can approve vendors, monitor reviews, and pull basic analytics.

If you’ve previously worked with directory scripts, Laravel, Django, WordPress + custom plugins, or similar stacks, let me know; I’m open to whichever framework helps us launch quickly without sacrificing scalability. Future phases could include booking, scheduling, or full-blown planning tools, so clean, well-documented code is important.

Please tell me how you would approach the build, which tech you’d choose, and roughly how long the MVP described above would take you.
