Marketing for wedding businesses
Couples plan a wedding once, so most wedding businesses never get a repeat customer. Growth comes from being easy to find, easy to check and easy to recommend. This page covers all three.
Why most wedding businesses struggle to grow
Paying to be listed everywhere
Many suppliers pay several wedding directories for listings, then cannot tell which one brought the booking.
No prices on the site
Couples compare suppliers on budget first. A site with no starting price or package guide gets skipped in favour of one that has it.
Booked a year ahead, quiet in between
Wedding work is booked months ahead and clusters in a few busy months. Marketing that stops when the diary is full leaves next year empty.
Whito need-to-know for wedding services
In England and Wales, a civil ceremony or partnership must take place in a register office or in premises approved by the local council. A venue that is not approved can host the celebration but not the legal ceremony.
Wedding suppliers are covered by the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which says a service must be carried out with reasonable care and skill.
Before you book a supplier, get the price, what is included, the deposit and the cancellation terms in writing.
