Welcome back to Wedding Mayhem! In this episode, we’re joined by wedding industry expert Kelly Mortimer, who isn’t afraid to tell it like it is when it comes to booking weddings, ghosting, and what suppliers need to do differently to attract couples. Helping them provide the best service for couples getting married.
The wedding journey is a remarkable adventure, filled with emotions, decisions, and a multitude of details that require careful consideration. For both suppliers and couples, understanding each other's needs and expectations is crucial in creating a day that is as special and unique as the love that it celebrates.
We dive into why so many wedding businesses struggle to get bookings, the mistakes venues and vendors make with marketing, and why couples often disappear after an inquiry.
Kelly breaks down the psychology of pricing, explains how to stand out in a crowded market, and even reveals why those classic chair covers and bows might actually be costing venues money.
