Attract more couples: Easy Weddings 5-Star Supplier Awards

It’s no surprise that businesses with higher ratings attract more bookings. A 5-star rating represents more than just great service. The Easy Weddings 5-Star Supplier Awards celebrate businesses that consistently earn top reviews throughout the year, highlighting their commitment to excellence in the wedding industry.

Earning a 5-Star Supplier award isn’t just a feel-good moment; it’s a powerful boost for your business. Based on glowing reviews from happy couples, this recognition sets you apart in a competitive market. Along with the prestige, a 5-Star Supplier Award comes with real perks: a spotlight listing that puts you front and centre, increased visibility to potential clients, and, ultimately, more bookings. It’s proof that exceptional service gets not just noticed but rewarded.

Why do 5-star awards matter?

Before making a purchase, 95% of consumers will read online reviews. In the wedding industry, trust is everything, and nothing builds trust faster than glowing reviews from real couples. When potential clients browse listings, they’re not just looking at services or pricing; they’re searching for reassurance. A solid collection of 5-star reviews serves as social proof, showing that others have had an incredible experience and that they can expect the same.

These reviews are often the deciding factor between a couple choosing a certain supplier or moving on to another option. In a sea of choices, a perfect rating sets you apart as a reliable, high-quality professional who delivers on promises. Past client reviews carry an authenticity that transcends marketing copy and social media posting.

When it comes to the performance of your storefront, lots of reviews (and good ones, at that!) dramatically improve your ability to generate enquiries:

• 1 review = 25% increase in results
• 11+ reviews = 200% increase
• 40+ reviews = 300% increase
