What we do

Why we do it

How we do it

We are an online directory of only the best, luxury wedding suppliers, targeting only brides-to-be who want the best. A listing with us is more than an ad - it’s a stamp of approval that brides trust.

Simply because, from our wed-ding industry experience, we saw a gap for a trusted portal to luxury brands.

Through well written content, careful targeting, and taking advantage of social platforms to interact with our audience. .


We target only the modern, luxury bride: We are extremely selective about the businesses we include under our umbrella of exclusive resources, in order to reach only the brides who want - and can afford - your service. We tailor our SEO to attract brides searching for the top end of the market for their wedding supplies, using keywords. By doing this, we filter out those looking for discount or mass produced products, and only bring the audience who want the most exclusive suppliers to our content.
