• require vendors pay to submit their work to us
• only feature weddings with $100,000 budgets
• ignore the need for diversity in the couples we feature
• share mostly celebrity weddings on our insta
• tell everyone a destination wedding is right for them

Since we’re always looking to improve, what are some changes you hope to see in the wedding media space? 🤔

How exactly do interactive vendors liven a destina How exactly do interactive vendors liven a destination wedding celebration? 

While a stunning backdrop and a great playlist are foundational, the secret to a truly vibrant weekend lies in shifting guests from passive observers to active participants. 

By integrating stations like live painters, custom hat bars, or roaming oyster shuckers, couples can break the ice naturally and spark genuine conversation among their guests!
