49 Wedding Content Ideas

1. Day in the Life: Wedding Day Edition

This is an easy topic if you are just starting your wedding planner blog. The next time you are working on a wedding, open the Notes app on your phone and jot a sentence or two down each time you move to a new activity. Be sure to include all the little issues that pop up throughout the day, and when you write your blog, focus on how you solved all of them. This will help you look like a capable problem solver – a trait all wedding professionals should have!

2. Day in the Life: Non-Wedding Day Edition

What do you do on a day when you don’t have to attend a wedding? You probably do all sorts of wedding-related items like attend meetings with engaged couples, come up with wedding venue marketing ideas, or negotiate contracts with vendors. Document all of these things in your Notes app and then type out a timeline of your day for your blog post. Include a few tasks you completed that show website visitors how you go the extra mile for your couples.

3. Why You Need a Wedding Planner (Or Your Chosen Profession)

Create a list-style wedding planner blog entry for this topic. Choose seven to ten reasons why people need a wedding planner and make each list item a headline in your blog. Write a short paragraph under each one going into more detail. Having a lot of different headlines and short blocks of text will help your blog be more easily skimmable – something that plays a large role in engagement from website visitors. 

4. How a Wedding Planner Saves You Time

If you are going to blog about wedding ideas, some of them need to be persuasive. The goal of this blog is to convince engaged couples to hire you as their wedding planner. How do you save your couples time? How does that saved time help them in the long run? At the end of your blog, include a call to action that links them to your services or appointment page so they can set up a meeting with you. 

5. Tips for Protecting Your Mental Health While Planning a Wedding

This blog will be helpful to couples everywhere! Create a list of your best tips for protecting mental health during the engagement period, but don’t forget the most important tip of all: to hire YOU! Remember, when you are writing your wedding ideas blog that the main purpose of it is to get you new clients. Don’t ever miss out on the chance to talk up your services!

6. 10 Things Your Wedding Professional Wants You to Know

Include a mixture of funny, serious, and heartfelt items on this list. Try to stay away from things that could upset a potential client or be really controversial.  For example, saying, “No one likes watching the father/daughter dance, so don’t do one!” might be true in your opinion, but will likely alienate a lot of potential couples. Give a few tips that will help their planning process, a few tips that will help them on the day of, and a few tips that will help them navigate tricky personal situations.

7. Top Wedding Trends for 2023

As a wedding planner blog, you probably know all of the top trends for this year already! Create a list and describe each one in this post. Even though you likely won’t need to do any research for this blog, it will help your blog’s ranking with search engines if you include a few links to articles describing some of the trends you mention. Integrate the links naturally into your copy and ensure they are high-quality websites with good information. 

8. Why You Should Never __________ Before/On Your Wedding Day

What is something you see a lot as a wedding professional that you know never works out? Is it a fight you see couples have all the time? Is it a trend that never really works well? In this blog post, describe what it is that you believe couples should never do and then tell them why. Include a link to set up an appointment with you as the call to action for this blog. Plus, opinionated topics like this always get people sharing!

9. Wedding Trends Making a Comeback

Do a little research into older wedding trends and use them as a wedding ideas blog post! It would be fun to include photos of the trends from past years next to photos from more recent weddings (think: older trends that have been updated or wedding trends with a twist). Make sure you link the photos to their sources if you don’t own them. 

10. The 5 Most Important Things You Should Have on Your Wedding Day

It would be easy to make this a wedding venue marketing idea – think about what all your engaged couples have needed with them on their wedding day for specific venues. Make one section a list of things they need for an outdoor wedding and one section a list of things they need for a hotel ballroom wedding (or another indoor venue). Include links to comparable wedding venues in your area and use a lot of local SEO keywords to be sure you attract engaged couples in your area looking for a wedding professional.

11. Best Gifts for Attendants in 2023

This is a topic most engaged couples will be interested in. Format this as a list, with each item’s headline and a description underneath. Be sure to include links to purchase (and don’t forget to disclose if they are affiliate links!), prices, and a photo if you have one. If you have seen any of your chosen gifts given during a wedding you were working at, mention that, too!

12. How Much Should You Budget for Your Wedding?

This wedding content idea will appeal to engaged couples all over, not just those in your geographic area. When you create your SEO keywords for this blog post, keep that in mind. Utilize links to budgeting tools that couples can use and inject some of your experiences in the wedding industry into your copy. In this wedding ideas blog, you can also discuss what you think a couple should splurge on and what you think they can DIY.

13. How to Know if Your Dress is “The One”

Make each headline in this blog post a question. For example, How does the dress make you feel? Can you picture your wedding photos in this dress? Does this dress match the look of your venue or dream cake? Underneath each headline, talk about why the answer to each question will help them to decide on a dress. 

14. My Honeymoon Planning Advice

If you have any affiliate links with travel companies, this is a great place to use them! Asking a connection in the travel industry to guest post on this wedding planner blog is an easy way to get further promotion and engagement (because the guest poster will also promote your blog). Offer to write a guest post on their blog if they have one – or agree to promote their services on your social media account if they don’t.

15. Client Testimonial – Wedding Day Behind the Scenes

Client testimonials can sometimes sell your services better than you can! My tip? When you ask for a client testimonial, don’t just say something vague like, “Please send me a testimonial!” You will get better feedback if you ask them to answer specific questions and discuss certain areas of your work. The more detailed a testimonial is, the more people will trust it. Get into the habit of asking for a detailed testimonial after each wedding you work on, and soon you will have a large number of them to pull for these types of blog posts! 

16. How I Stay Organized

When you are blogging for wedding professionals, you need to be prepared to show the behind-the-scenes of your business. Engaged couples may click around your website after reading one blog entry or looking at your services page. Use this blog post to discuss your organizational skills when it comes to wedding services. Not only will this highlight how you are able to keep things in order, but it will also show that you are a professional who excels at the business side of wedding services. 

17. What Makes a Good Bride (or Groom!)

Make this a fun, lighthearted blog post that highlights all the things you love about brides or grooms. Don’t turn it into a list of things you hate! This will alienate website visitors and make them wary of hiring you. 

18. My Must-Have Wedding Day Essentials

Format this as a list-style blog that includes lots of photos and links (be sure to disclose if you are using affiliate links!). To make this blog post easily skimmable, you may want to create a template to use for each item. For example, instead of writing a paragraph of copy about each one, use the headline as the item name, then include the photo with the link and price below it. Then fill out your answers to these prompts: Why it’s necessary, How I’ve seen it help on wedding days: etc, etc. Make it simple and easy to scan through to get the most engagement. 

19. My Must-Have Digital Tools as a Wedding Professional

This post can be written as if you are blogging for wedding vendors rather than engaged couples. Discuss each digital tool you love and why while making sure to include all the ways it helps you in your wedding services business. While it might seem strange to write a blog not centered around engaged couples, having some posts geared toward the wedding business will help establish you as an authority in the industry. This will help to build trust between you and couples looking to hire you!

20. Best Budget-Friendly Wedding Planning Tips

There are so many blogs with advice on how to make something budget-friendly. What could you offer advice on that would set you apart? Is there something in your niche of wedding services that many people don’t talk about or know about? Try to think of a creative angle that will let you discuss this topic without repeating everything that has already been said. 

21. My Favorite Wedding Traditions

This wedding blog idea can be more personal to you. Make sure you write in the first person and highlight why you love each wedding tradition. If you have photos to use throughout the blog – even better! Your call to action at the end should ask engaged couples to contact you to discuss how they can integrate their favorite wedding traditions into their celebrations. 

22. How to Thank Your Wedding Professional

List 5 – 10 ways engaged couples can thank a wedding professional. It’s smart to include a range of budgets (think: 2 or 3 items for a smaller budget, 2 or 3 for a medium budget, and 2 or 3 luxury budget items) so that you appeal to a larger group of engaged couples.

23. What Season Should You Get Married 

You could easily turn this into a four-part blog series, focusing each blog on the pros and cons of getting married during each season. If you don’t want to create a series and would rather just do one blog entry, that’s totally fine, too! Be sure to break up the larger blocks of text with text features (like bulleted lists), images, headlines, and links. 

24. 5 Biggest Mistakes I’ve Seen as a Wedding Professional

It can be tempting while blogging for wedding vendors to write about all the horror stories you have seen as a wedding professional. I caution you against doing that! Remember, you want website visitors to ultimately hire you, and they may be less inclined to do so if they feel like you are judging past couples. Focus your mistakes on fairly general things and that each couple can fix before the big day. For example, saying “hiring a DJ instead of a band” is not something all couples can change, and it could make them feel bad. Instead, say something like “not having music that means something during the first dances” so the couples can really think about that aspect of their reception.

This blog could also be focused on reception trends, reception traditions, or budget-friendly reception ideas. 

28. How You Can Work with Me in (Season) 2023

It’s always a good idea to explain your services to website visitors. Yes, you likely already have a Services page, but putting the information in a blog post is also smart.
