    211. Couples Are Exiting Your Website at These 3 Spots & PLUS How to Fix It with Devon Balicki of Design and Devon

    If you’ve tuned into this podcast before, you know I’m passionate about helping wedding pros create content that actually converts… not just content that gets likes. So when Devon of Design & Devon reached out to talk about website conversions for wedding businesses, I immediately knew we needed this conversation on the podcast. Devon is a former software engineer turned strategic web designer for florists and event professionals, and honestly? She completely reframed the way I think about wedding websites (and digital portfolios… but more on that later!).  This was such a great reminder that your website shouldn’t just exist, it should actively help you book the right clients 24/7. In this episode, we talk about: What makes a wedding website actually convert in 2026 The biggest mistakes vendors make in their hero section (aka the first thing couples see on their website) What you should have (and what you should leave out) of your gallery to impress, not overwhelm How your inquiry form might accidentally be costing you leads Pricing transparency and why couples want clarity now more than ever How to strategically attract better-fit inquiries (and fewer ghosting leads) And because Devon is amazing, she also created a free website self-audit specifically for I Do Wedding Marketing listeners so you can evaluate your own website in under 15 minutes.

    Ep. 210 | What Theme Parks Can Teach Wedding Pros About Marketing with Becca Pountney

    This week on the I Do Wedding Marketing Podcast, I’m joined by the UK’s leading wedding industry marketing expert, Becca Pountney, for a conversation about how wedding marketing is evolving in 2026 and what today’s couples actually expect from the businesses they book. Becca is a wedding business consultant, coach, author, award-winning podcaster, and former television and radio marketer who has spent the last decade helping wedding pros and venues stand out and get booked. Her podcast, Wedding Pros Who Are Ready To Grow, recently won Best Business Podcast of the Year at the British Podcast Awards, and after this conversation, you’ll understand why. In this episode, we unpack Becca’s “Marketing Theme Park” 🎢 concept and why the traditional marketing funnel no longer reflects how modern couples actually make decisions. From AI and shrinking attention spans to referrals, pricing transparency, and creating unforgettable client experiences, this conversation is full of practical, forward-thinking insights for wedding pros who want to stay visible, relevant, and profitable in an evolving industry. If you’ve been wondering what marketing actually needs to look like moving forward, this episode is a must-listen. We discuss: 🎢 Why the traditional marketing funnel is outdated and what the “Marketing Theme Park” means for wedding businesses in 2026 🎢 How today’s couples actually discover and book vendors in an AI-heavy world 🎢 Becca’s SCREAM framework for modern wedding marketing and why standing out matters more than ever 🎢 Why referrals, recommendations, and unforgettable client experiences are still powerful booking tools 🎢 The importance of using multiple marketing channels, tracking your data, and embracing the mindset that done is better than perfect Resources mentioned in this episode: Becca’s podcast: Wedding Pros Who Are Ready To Grow https://wedding-pros.captivate.fm/listen  Becca’s book: Done Is Better Than Perfect https://a.co/d/42Y30LB  Becca’s “Marketing Theme Park” episode (Episode 153) https://beccapountney.com/podcast-153/   Becca’s Free Marketing Checklist https://go.beccapountney.com/marketingchecklist  Connect with Becca: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beccapountney/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/beccapountney  LinkedIn: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/becca-pountney-a0181033  Follow I Do Wedding Marketing  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/idoweddingmarketing/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/idoweddingmarketing LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nina-addeo-699898ab/ Threads: https://www.threads.com/@idoweddingmarketing   I Do Wedding Marketing podcast listeners can receive 15% off a 6-month subscription as a new Aisle Planner user!

    Ep 209 | Is Your Instagram Bio Costing You Bookings??

    Your social media bio might be the reason potential clients are clicking away before they ever inquire… 😬 In this episode of the I Do Wedding Marketing Podcast, I’m diving into one of the smallest, yet most powerful, pieces of your marketing: your bio! Because those few lines at the top of your Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube profile? They’re doing a lot more heavy lifting than you think. I’m breaking down the biggest mistakes I see wedding pros making, why vague bios are costing you inquiries, and how to turn your profile into a clear, client-attracting first impression that actually converts. If your bio currently says something like “capturing love stories ✨”, this episode is for you! In this episode, I cover: The #1 thing most wedding pros are missing in their social media bios How to instantly make your profile more client-focused The 3 things every high-converting bio needs Common mistakes with “link in bio” strategy Simple calls-to-action that encourage inquiries and clicks By the end of this episode, you’ll definitely be looking at your bio differently, and probably rewriting it too!

    Ep. 205 | The 5 Pricing Archetypes Every Wedding Pro Falls Into with Danison Fronda-Tietz of Bowtie and Biz

    In this episode of the I Do Wedding Marketing Podcast, I’m sitting down with Danison Fronda-Tietz, licensed CPA, former financial analyst for The Walt Disney Company (you read that right!), wedding business owner, and founder of Bowtie & Biz. And okay, yes… I fully invited him on because I had pricing questions of my own.  Lucky for us, he delivered. We dive into his five Pricing Archetypes, which very conveniently spell P.R.I.C.E. If you’ve ever panic lowered your pricing right before an inquiry call, stalked a competitor’s packages at 11:47pm, or freaked out after raising your rates, this one is for you. We talk about: The 5 Pricing Archetypes: Profit, Relationship, Impact, Capacity, and External Why pricing feels “icky” sometimes (and what’s actually happening) How to raise prices without panicking about losing bookings Setting boundaries as a relationship-driven wedding pro Determining your true capacity (especially as a parent or solo business owner) Why profit should be part of your pricing strategy without sacrificing heart This conversation will help you finally understand why you price the way you do, and give you the confidence to fully own your Pricing Archetype instead of fighting against it. Resources and Ways to Connect with Danison: Connect with Danison on Instagram: @bowtieandbiz Take the Pricing Archetype Quiz: bowtieandbiz.com/price Visit Danison’s website to learn more: Bowtie & Biz As always, thank you for being here for another Wednesday on the I Do Wedding Marketing Podcast. 💛 Follow I Do Wedding Marketing  Instagram Facebook LinkedIn Threads I Do Wedding Marketing podcast listeners can receive 15% off a 6-month subscription as a new Aisle Planner user!
