By Lora Sickora

Engagement season is here, and that means it’s the perfect time to make sure your Storefronts on The Knot and WeddingWire are optimized to attract couples who are actively planning their big day. 

But it doesn’t have to take up much of your valuable time. The truth of the matter is that a few small updates can make a big impact, and with a few strategic tweaks, your Storefronts can become irresistible to your dream clients. 

10 tips to maximize your Storefronts 

Here are 10 actionable tips to help you stand out, boost your visibility and make the most of this high-traffic season.

1. Use high-quality, on-trend photos.

Your photos are often the first thing couples notice, so make them count. High-quality images that reflect current wedding trends can instantly grab attention and make your Storefronts stand out. Include a mix of your best work, showcasing diverse styles, settings and celebrations to show your range and appeal to more couples.

2. Keep your “about” section fresh and personal.

Your “about” section is your chance to connect with couples on a personal level. Write it to reflect your personality, values and what makes your services unique. Couples want to feel like they’re hiring someone they know and trust, so let your passion for weddings shine through.

Pro Tip: Use your “about” section to highlight what sets you apart—whether it’s your approach, experience or a signature service.

3. Include detailed service descriptions.

Clarity is key when it comes to your service descriptions. Couples need to understand exactly what you offer and how it fits into their vision. Use simple, straightforward language and avoid industry jargon. Don’t forget to mention any unique or specialized services that make you stand out.

4. Add your pricing information.

Pricing transparency is a top priority for couples. That’s why including a pricing overview, such as a starting price, can help reduce back-and-forth inquiries and attract couples who are serious about booking.

Pro Tip: When communicating with couples use pricing language that highlights value, not just cost—explain what’s included and why your services are worth it.

5. Highlight your awards and achievements.

Awards and accolades build instant credibility and trust. If you’ve recently won The Knot Best of Weddings or Couples’ Choice Award^Ⓡ, make sure it’s prominently displayed on your Storefronts. These recognitions show potential clients that you’re an industry leader and trusted by other couples.

6. Include recent reviews.

Reviews are a powerful form of social proof, helping couples feel confident about trusting you with their big day. Make sure your Storefonts are updated to include recent reviews that highlight your responsiveness, creativity or ability to go above and beyond. 

Pro Tip: Select testimonials that align with what your dream clients value most.

7. Add behind-the-scenes content.

Couples love getting a peek behind the curtain. Include photos or reviews that feature the preparation and effort behind your work. Whether it’s a snapshot of you setting up a ceremony or a fun moment with your team, behind-the-scenes content adds authenticity to your profile and makes you more relatable.

8. Focus on showcasing your expertise.

Your Storefronts should highlight what you do best. Emphasize any specialized services, cultural expertise or creative problem-solving that sets you apart. Use your “about’ section, reviews and photos to demonstrate your expertise.

Pro Tip: If you have a signature style or niche, make sure it’s evident across your entire profile.

9. Share your availability.

Couples may be working on tight timelines or already have a set date, so sharing your availability can help them decide to reach out. Mention your general availability to give potential clients clarity and confidence.

10. Feature seasonal or trending content.

Adding seasonal or trending content keeps your Storefronts fresh and relevant. For example, highlight winter wedding photos or showcase recent work that aligns with upcoming trends. This signals to couples that your Storefronts are active and up to date.
