Marry Your Dream of Ownership

LEARN MORE ABOUT WHAT MAKES WED SOCIETY® AN AMAZING FRANCHISE OPPORTUNITY!

Live at the Center of it All

As the local Wed Society® publisher, you are at the center of it all. The center of styles, vendors, engaged couples, special events, and the voice of the wedding industry in your local market.

INSPIRE.

As the local publisher, our franchise owners engage with wedding venues, photographers, florists, bakers, and dozens of other wedding vendors to curate and feature the most inspirational weddings in their community. Using our proprietary marketing systems, our local owners build a targeted, high-value audience of engaged couples.

BUILD A COMMUNITY.

Through our exclusive content across digital and social platforms, as well as our annual Book of Weddings and in-person industry events, we build a community of wedding vendors who trust Wed Society® as the foundation to build their own business.

CREATE EXPOSURE.

Your customers advertise their business through your local Wed Society® platforms, and you succeed by helping those businesses connect with engaged couples and the larger, local wedding community to drive their business forward.

Who makes the best owner?

Ambitious entrepreneurs who understand the importance of being backed by the talent and knowledge of the industry’s leading brand and our proven systems.

Our local publishers lead the sales and marketing of their business, and often come from a business development or similar background. While we don’t require sales experience, and provide a robust training program, our owners are excited by the prospect of networking with other local small business owners and building community.

Our owners have a sense of style and an eye for detail. In curating the most inspirational weddings and talented vendors to feature, our owners appreciate the joy that comes from discovering and sharing the best their community has to offer.
