Wedding pros served since 2018
You’re not just a wedding pro — you’re an artist, creating
fine art experiences for your clients through every celebration.
Still, while you’re amazingly gifted at serving your clients once they’ve booked you, your marketing feels beyond overwhelming.
You didn’t start your business to write blogs all day (or, ya know, stare at a blinking cursor), plan posts, or figure out what the heck your analytics are saying to you. It all feels like a different language — if only you could learn it, you could reach even more aligned clients.
At this point in business, you’re becoming highly selective about the clients you serve. Instead of booking out weddings every weekend, you’re ready to book fewer but better clients. To spend more time with your family. To have more white space on the calendar without sacrificing your income.
As an expert wedding pro, you love your art, and you’re dang good at it. But the backend marketing tasks are simply not what you signed up for when you started your business.
Now, you’re ready to get back to the beautiful world of working on your clients’ weddings and hand off the rest to a trusted, experienced team who’s got your back.
What would it be like to know that your marketing is
fully taken care of for you —
that everything from your blogs to your Pinterest, SEO, and even email marketing were totally off your plate?
As wedding pros turned marketers ourselves, we know the wedding industry inside out. We’re here to support you and be your partner in all things wedding marketing.
For wedding vendors ready for a completely up-leveled presence and position that’s worthy of national recognition, premium prices, and a waitlist of clients.
The Beespoke Blueprint
In an ever-evolving landscape where standing out is essential, our exclusive package offers a transformative journey tailored for artists like you.
You understand the immense value of impactful marketing but find yourself dreaming of a partner to take the reins and elevate your brand to new heights.
We work with wedding vendors who are ready to stand out so there is no competition .
This package isn't just about upgrading your marketing; it's about ushering in a complete transformation. We understand that your ideal client and business goals have evolved, and so should your marketing.
Backed with our 20+ years of industry experience and six-figure client results, we know that strategy paired with gorgeous design and captivating copy is the backbone for success. And we don’t just mean booking out your calendar.
Beyond transforming your brand's visibility, you will have a business that allows you to handpick clients, attract more leads effortlessly, and command premium rates—1.5 to 2 times more—without the heavy lifting.
How
the transformation works:
How
works:
Phase One: Strategy & creative direction
This is the most important piece of The Beespoke Blueprint. Without solid foundations, marketing doesn't work. And without a solid foundation, you can't stand out.
So before we dive into your rebrand, we start at the very beginning. After Phase One, you will have a defined unique selling proposition, a well-identified ideal client profile, and a comprehensive marketing and brand strategy that serves as the guiding beacon for all future marketing.
We are your creative directors & brand strategists, walking you through every step.
Phase Three: The branding
Your wedding business is unique, and your client experience is the kind your clients rave about for years to come. Let’s create a brand identity to match.
We focus on what sets you apart to create a refined brand identity that aligns with your vision, your values, and your audience. From the logo, to color palettes and typography, it will all work in harmony to set you apart.
phase four: the website
We create a fully custom Showit or Squarespace website that reflects your updated and compelling messaging, visually appealing and relevant images, gorgeous new branding, and enhances the user experience.
Most importantly, your website will be completely designed with SEO in mind, with every single piece done for you. Your website won't just be stunning, but found on Google.
phase two: messaging & copy
Your copy is the most important part of your website. Yes, it’s even more important than your images and design! The right messaging allows you to connect with your ideal couples and get them excited to book. And professional copywriting, with an SEO mindset, will also allow Google to know and understand what you do.
We will create a strategically crafted messaging framework and website copy that effectively communicates your value. We know that successful engagement comes from vendors couples can trust - and that starts with your messaging.
the transformation
Our process works by creating a
holistic marketing core that works for you.
Don’t worry, you don’t need to have a marketing plan in place before we start working together. You don’t even need to know exactly which strategies you’d like to implement! We’ll work together to assess your business and grow a portfolio that works for you.
The Monthly Marketing Retainer
With our retainer, you can put your mind at ease as we handle everything. We strategize and execute tailored strategies based on our expertise, removing the 'what' and 'how' from your plate entirely.
Your first month is our 360* dive into your business to create a completely custom plan, with handpicked platforms. No need to wonder where you should market - we will guide you on the strategies that get you the most ROI.
Our flat-fee retainer packages mean that you pay the same every single month - so instead of dealing with a quote every time we see a new marketing need, we will be able to simply let you know what we need from you to complete the task, and we’ll deliver.
We stay on top of industry trends, so that our content creation (and your marketing) revolves around what is happening in the wedding world. With quarterly reports, we provide a clear snapshot of your business's growth and performance.

I love how efficient and organized Ava And The Bee have been. By working with them, it has saved me time and helped me focus on editing all my sessions and weddings.
Before working with Ava and The Bee, I was struggling with keeping up with blogging and pinning my images. At first, I was a little hesitant to outsource blogging and pinning, but it has been a lifesaver! I appreciate all the work they have done for me. I love seeing my blogs and pins growing on my website and Pinterest account. I love how efficient and organized Ava And The Bee have been.
- Mika - Mika LH Photography
“HIRING AVA & THE BEE IS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE BEST THING I’VE DONE FOR MY BUSINESS IN YEARS.
I started outsourcing everything that wasn’t getting done, or I didn’t like doing, or I wasn’t good at (it was a long list!) and they rock every single project I give them. From prompt communication to delivering exceptional work, I have loved working with them every step of the way! Do your business the biggest favor possible and hire them immediately!”
-Wendy Norman at Apt. B Photography
Since working with Ava And The Bee, I've been able to devote more time to client work and I've recently seen an uptick in inquiries. Their blog writing and photo culling is exactly how I would do it myself, so it felt very authentic to trust them with my brand.

Here’s what a few of our clients said
about outsourcing their marketing and taking this next step in business with us as their team
"It’s always scary when starting to consider outsourcing things...
Are they going to know who my client is? Are they going to be able to speak in my voice? For people who are still kind of worried about the financial commitment, the freedom that it gives you to not have to look at social media constantly – I would pay any amount of money for that. I know that things are being done the most effective way, in terms of social media marketing. They know how to do that way better than most of us do, because we don’t have any kind of degree in marketing. As wedding pros, we just want to do fun creative stuff. Ava is worth her weight in gold."
- Izzy Hudgins, Izzy and Co.
"I would highly encourage anybody to really look at their budget and see if working with Ava is something they can fit into their budget because it really has freed up so much of my time.
While I don’t think I’m a great writer, I do enjoy putting things together and strategizing but Ava is so much better with her words than I am and now I can actually say that yes, blogs and newsletter do actually help move the needle forward. Ava has come in and allowed me to do other things I need to do to move the needle even more.”
- Jessica Mattingly
Frequently
Asked Questions
Are you inclusive?
YES! We are LGBTQ+ allies, and every single team member is a Certified Inclusive Pro, with a certification from Equally Wed Pro. As a team, we regularly educate ourselves on LGBTQ+ topics, as well as DEI.
Do we have to do all these items or can I choose a few to start with?
We list our capabilities to give you an idea of what’s possible, but know that we can create a streamlined package for you to begin with before you add on other items. We typically begin with blogging and SEO, and add on as needed from there!
How long do I need to commit to your services?
We have a six month minimum commitment for full-service marketing. Many of our clients have been with us since we opened our doors in 2018, so rest assured we can fully take marketing off your plate for the long term. If you are looking for a non-monthly commitment, we have limited availability for smaller projects.
