Building a wedding business that gives you the financial, time, and creative freedom you want is hard enough in the best of times.
And it can feel damn near impossible in an economic downturn and an industry-wide slowdown.
You’re getting a lot of things right: You’re providing an amazing service to the clients you have, networking to get yourself out there, and using social media to promote your work.
Each time you book a new client you do a little happy dance, but if you’re being really honest… you're not getting leads or bookings consistently, you're getting ghosted, and sometimes you wonder if it’s even worth it.
You find yourself...
Feeling completely overwhelmed by all of the things you have to do to run your business.
You started this business because you love your craft, not because you're an expert marketer!
Spinning your wheels & throwing idea after idea against the wall hoping something will stick.
You've heard Instagram works, and so does Pinterest, and advertising, oh and networking. But who has the time for all of that?
Feeling frustrated because you're working hard all day & you're not seeing the bookings you want.
You're already working so much that you're skipping meals and time with your family. What more can you do?
There has to be a better way!
How great would it feel to...
Book yourself out with your ideal clients who are excited to work with you & don’t question your prices.
Stand out from the competition and make the $$$ you deserve so you can spend more time with your family.
Stop getting ghosted and wasting your time with leads who aren't a good fit for you.
Grow your wedding business without lowering your prices or working 60+ hour weeks.
Make getting leads & bookings an easy process that doesn't frustrate or overwhelm you.
Get access to 31 different strategies & techniques you can implement right away to get booked out with clients you love.
(yes, even when things are slow).
Get leads that you're genuinely excited to work with and who can't wait to work with you.
Make booking those leads easy and simple so you can spend more time on your clients.
Do it all without spending more time on your marketing and sales and actually save an average of 5 hours per week.
Join us for Book More Weddings Summit and head into the 2024 booking season with a solid plan for getting more leads and booking yourself out with your ideal clients.
Meet Your Host

I created this summit to help you to book more weddings so that you can grow your business, become more profitable, and know exactly what you need to do to attract your ideal clients to you instead of chasing after them.

Book More Weddings Summit was created with ALL wedding professionals in mind.
Not just wedding planners like a lot of things in our industry.
Book More Weddings Summit was created to help ALL wedding professionals from planners and cake bakers to officiants and live wedding painters book more weddings with their ideal clients.
We make a conscious effort to invite speakers who represent different vendor types, countries, races, sexual orientations, and perspectives to represent our attendees, wedding professionals of all kinds from 6 different continents.
The advice you'll learn from them is specifically for wedding professionals. This isn't general advice for any creative business out there. Every presentation is specialized for the type of business you run, making it much more impactful.
But more importantly, we're not here to add to your plate. Our goal isn't to throw a pile of new strategies and tasks at you, leaving you feeling overwhelmed and like there's no way you can do enough. Instead, we're here to provide you with a buffet of options for you to choose from. All of them will help you book more weddings, you just choose the ones that will work best for you and your business!
