The Media Library is the shared pool of images you use across your events. Upload inspiration photos, ingredient shots, and reference arrangements once, then pick them when you’re building recipes or designing a proposal. The same image can sit on as many events as you like.
This page covers features gated by Manager-tier permissions. Managers and Admins have these by default; your administrator can adjust who has them in Settings > Team.

Where to find it

Open Events > Media to manage your library. From here you can:
  • Upload new images (JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF or SVG, up to 10 MB each)
  • Search by name or caption
  • Filter by category or by image type (Inspiration, Ingredient, Proposal, General)
  • Edit an image’s name and category
  • Archive images you no longer need
Archiving keeps the image and its history, but hides it from the picker. Anything you’ve already attached to a recipe or proposal carries on showing.

Categories

As your library grows, group images into categories to make them faster to find. Manage categories in Settings, then assign each upload to one. Common patterns are by style (“Bridal Bouquets”, “Tablescapes”), by season, or by venue.

Where images attach

You don’t attach images to an event directly. Instead, you pick them from the Media Library at the point you need them:

On a recipe

Open any recipe in the Quotation Builder and use the inspiration picker to pull in reference images. These are the closest match to “this is what the arrangement should look like”. Recipe inspiration images appear next to that item in the client’s proposal when the Arrangements section is set to show images per recipe. They also auto-seed the Moodboard section unless you’ve curated it yourself.

On a seating plan

Quotation groups named Tables / Seating have an upload button for the seating plan image. The image attaches to the group and appears alongside that section in the proposal.

In the proposal designer

Two places in the proposal designer pull from the Media Library:
  • Moodboard section — pick the images that form your gallery. If you leave it on auto, the moodboard fills from the recipe inspiration images on the quote.
  • Arrangements section — add category-level inspiration images that sit above each group in the proposal.
Picking from the proposal designer doesn’t change the recipe’s images. Each surface keeps its own selection.
Upload reference photos from your consultations straight away, while the conversation is fresh. It only takes a moment and means nothing gets lost in a camera roll.

Image options on the proposal

When you pick images in the proposal designer, you can:
  • Reorder images by dragging them
  • Add captions (optional — turn them on per section in the designer)
  • Set the aspect ratio to square, portrait, or landscape
  • Choose layout — grid or masonry, with 2–6 columns
Captions show on the client’s proposal when you turn them on, so write short, useful descriptions like “Soft pink and ivory bridal bouquet” rather than leaving them blank.

Colour palette and notes

Colour swatches and palette settings live with the quotation. See the Quotation Builder for how to add a Colour Palette section to your quote.

Common questions

No. Images are optional everywhere. Proposals with photos tend to land better with clients, so adding them where you can is worth the time.
JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, and SVG, up to 10 MB each. Keep file sizes reasonable so proposals load quickly on mobile.
Yes. The Media Library is shared across all your events, so one upload can be attached to as many recipes, seating plans, or proposals as you need.
Only images attached to visible groups and recipes appear in the proposal. If you hide a group from the client, its images won’t show either. The moodboard and arrangements sections can also be turned on or off per proposal.
The image stays on any recipe or proposal it’s already attached to. It just stops appearing in the picker for new uses.
