Why It's Different for Wedding Planners
What works for wedding-planners is the opposite of what most marketing courses teach. No funnels, no lead magnets, no email sequences. Just first-page Google rankings and a phone that gets answered. We sort both.
If you are a wedding-planner, you already know the bread and butter: timeline planning and budget management, with guest list management when the season turns. Engaged couples planning weddings, typically booking 12-18 months in advance, which means wedding-planners need to be findable when those exact searches happen.
What We Actually Do
Wedding Planners get told the same marketing advice as everyone else, and most of it does not apply. Here is what actually works for wedding-planners in 2026. We don't sell you a thing and run. We run the entire online side of your business: Google listing, website, reviews, the lot. You get a monthly report and a phone number to text if anything is broken.
For wedding-planners, the version of this we run looks like weekly Google profile updates with photos from real wedding-planner jobs, four blog posts a month written for the searches wedding-planners customers actually use, and a monthly performance report you can read on a phone.
What Most Owners Get Wrong
For wedding-planners reading this who already feel like they have tried everything, here is the bit nobody mentions. Most wedding-planner marketing advice is generic and does not actually move the needle for wedding-planners. When you ask happy customers how they'd find someone like you, almost all of them say Google. So if Google isn't showing your business, the work goes to whoever it is showing. Doesn't matter how good you are at the actual job.
The Clients We Already Run
We work with seven UK trades businesses, and the same diagnosis keeps coming up across our wedding-planners and other trades clients. The common thread is search visibility, not skill. The honest version: we have seven paying clients. That is why we can give every one of them a phone number and answer it. When we have seventy, we will still give you a phone number, but a different one.
Next Step: A Free Audit
Honest framing: the audit is free because it costs us about 30 minutes of automated checks plus 10 minutes of a real human looking at the results. We do that because most owners don't trust marketing pitches anymore (rightly), and a real audit is the only way to start a useful conversation.
The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
We do not pretend SEO is mysterious. It is mostly: clear keyword research, then doing the obvious work consistently, then measuring it. The agencies that overcomplicate it do so to justify the price. We just do the work and bill £199/month.
Missed-Call Text-Back
If you cannot answer the phone (because you are on a job), the system automatically texts the caller back within seconds. The reply reads something like 'Hi, can't pick up right now, on a job. What do you need? I'll be back to you within the hour.'. About a third of those texts turn into actual jobs that would otherwise have been lost.
Review Automation
The reviews bit is fully automated: a text goes out after each job with a direct link to your Google review page. Customers tap once and they are typing the review. About one in three actually leaves one, which is roughly five times the industry average.
What It Costs
It is £199 a month plus a one-off £199 setup that covers your website. Less than £6.70 a day. One job from Google pays for the month. Three-month minimum, no contracts after that.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
Two numbers, no surprises. £199 for the website itself (built and hosted by us, yours to keep). £199 a month after that for the management. Three months minimum.
What do you actually do every month?
We replace four jobs you would normally pay separately for: web designer (£2k-5k one-off), SEO agency (£500-1,500/month), review automation app (£40-100/month), and missed-call answering service (£50-150/month). All bundled into one price.
Do I need to do anything technical?
If you can text us a logo and a few photos of your work, you have done your bit. Everything else, including the boring technical stuff like SSL certificates and search console setup, is on us.
What if I already have a website?
We work with what you have got. If your current website is broken or slow, we rebuild it. If it is fine, we keep it and just sort out the SEO and Google profile. Your domain stays the same either way.
How long until I see results?
Honest answer: anyone who guarantees specific numbers is lying to you. We can guarantee the work gets done properly. The missed-call text-back system pays for itself the first time you save a job. SEO results take longer, usually three to six months for meaningful movement.
Can I cancel?
After three months you can cancel any time, no notice period, no exit fees. The website is yours to keep. We transfer the domain and the site to whoever you want.
