For Wedding Professionals
List your South Carolina wedding business. Free, and written by an editor.
Wedding Vendor Connect is the state's editor-curated directory — no pay-to-play placement, no lead fees, no self-written bios. Submit your business once and we research and write your profile.
How It Works
- 1
You submit the basics
Business name, website, category, the region you serve, and any pricing you publish. Two minutes — through the free AI visibility check, or with an account if you'd rather manage edits yourself.
- 2
Our editors research you
We read your site, look at your actual work, confirm your service area and years in business, and note published pricing. Nothing is copy-pasted from a form.
- 3
Your listing goes live
A factual profile in the same voice as every other listing, with your contact details, website link, and a map or coverage area. Couples reach you directly — we take no cut.
New: Free AI Visibility Score
See what ChatGPT, Claude, and Google can read about your business
Couples increasingly ask AI assistants for vendor recommendations. The free check reads your website the way those assistants do, scores fourteen signals — schema markup, crawler access, whether your title says what you do and where — and tells you what to fix. Tick one box on the same form and our editors write your listing.
Run the free checkWe ran the same check across 140 South Carolina wedding businesses. One blocked AI crawlers; 108 published nothing a machine could read. Read the study.
Who We List
Eleven categories, five regions, one standard
We currently list wedding venues, wedding photographers, wedding videographers, wedding planners, wedding florists, wedding caterers, wedding cake bakers, wedding bands, wedding DJs, wedding hair and makeup artists, and wedding officiants across Charleston & Lowcountry, Myrtle Beach & Grand Strand, Greenville & Upstate, Columbia & Midlands, and Hilton Head & Beaufort. Planners, florists, caterers, and other categories are on the roadmap — send a note through the contact page if you want to be first in line.
The Palmetto Standard
Every listing is researched and written by an editor, shows real pricing or none, and is never ranked by who pays. That policy is why couples trust the directory — and why a listing here is worth linking to from your own site.

Add the editor-reviewed badge to your website
Couples researching vendors look for independent verification. The badge links to your listing and tells them a person — not a paid placement algorithm — reviewed your business. Paste the snippet into your footer, press page, or "as seen in" section, and replace the example URL with your listing's address.

Questions vendors ask
- How much does it cost to list my wedding business on Wedding Vendor Connect?
- Nothing. Listings are free, there are no featured-placement fees, and we do not charge per lead or per inquiry. Couples contact you directly through your own website, phone, or email — we never sit between you and a booking.
- Who qualifies for a listing?
- Wedding venues, planners and coordinators, photographers, videographers, florists, caterers, cake bakers, live bands and ceremony musicians, DJs, hair and makeup artists, and officiants that are actively booking weddings in South Carolina. You need a working website (or a public portfolio) our editors can verify your work against. Vendors based in Georgia or North Carolina who regularly work SC weddings are welcome if they name South Carolina in their service area.
- Who writes the listing?
- Our editors do. You submit the basics — name, website, category, region, and any pricing you publish — and we research your site, your work, and your public reviews, then write a factual profile in the same voice as every other listing. You can request corrections at any time.
- How long does it take to go live?
- Most listings are researched, written, and published within one to two weeks of submission. We work through the queue in the order received and prioritize categories where couples are actively searching.
- Can I include my pricing?
- Yes, and we recommend it. Listings that show a real starting price get compared more often, and our cost guides cite published pricing. If you don't publish pricing, the listing says so rather than guessing.
- What is the AI visibility score, and does it affect my listing?
- A free, instant check of whether AI assistants can read and cite your website — fourteen technical and on-page signals, each with a plain-English fix. It has no bearing on your listing: listings are editorial, never ranked by payment, and the score exists so you can see your own site the way ChatGPT and Google do. The paid audit that follows it is offered by Standin, the company that owns this directory, and buying it changes nothing about placement.
- Can I link back to my listing from my website?
- Please do. The badge below links to your profile and tells couples an independent editor has reviewed your business. Copy the snippet, swap in your listing URL, and paste it into your site's footer or press page.
