How does winning help my brand?

Winning Couples’ Choice Award gives you major bragging rights! It builds trust and credibility among potential clients and helps them feel more confident booking you. 

It's a powerful form of social proof because eligibility is based on reviews from past clients and the positive experience they’ve had working with you. 

It also gives you an advantage with added exposure in the WeddingWire marketplace by appearing in the winners hub.

You should be really proud of your win and we want you to be able to shout it from the rooftops! Sharing awards such as Couples’ Choice Award in your profile helps build trust and credibility among your followers and potential future customers! 

The best way to share that you’ve won with your followers on social media is to grab either the badge or the gif and post them to your accounts. 

 

Badge: You can download the badge by logging in to your vendor account at weddingpro.com, clicking in to your Storefront and then selecting the “Best of Weddings” tab across the top menu.
