What is Wed Society®?

We are a rapidly growing home-based wedding media franchise engrained in local communities throughout the country. We showcase top-notch wedding vendors through a unique multimedia mix, connecting them with engaged couples.

Digital, Social & Print

Our locally-owned wedding media brands use digital, social, and print media to inspire engaged couples and connect them to the top wedding professionals in the market.

Our award-winning model, world-class training, and deep bench of support give franchise owners the tools, resources, and proven playbook to build successful local businesses. It’s just a few of the reasons our average mature Wed Society market generated more than $789,000 annually!
