Does booking weddings feel harder in 2025 than it used to? You’re not imagining it.

I hear it all the time from wedding pros who are doing everything they’re supposed to be doing, showing up on social media, blogging, and networking but the inquiries just aren’t coming in the way they used to.

The truth is, the wedding market has shifted, and the strategies that worked even a year or two ago might not be cutting it anymore.

In this episode, we’re diving into why booking weddings feels harder right now and what is actually working for vendors who are still getting booked solid.

If you’re feeling discouraged or unsure of how to adjust your marketing to keep up with what couples want in 2025, this episode will give you clarity and direction.
