Listing Features
Those looking to build their wedding dream team and/or find inspiration can easily find venues, vendors, real weddings and events with our platform’s Advanced Search & Filtering.
We encourage Listing owners to fill out their Listings as completely as possible, in order to have the best chance of being discovered.
Listing owners can provide various details to help other members of our community make better-informed decisions, and the following details are available to all Listing owners, regardless of their Listing Subscription plan.
- Business Name
- Tagline
- About Section
- Services
- Offerings
- Price Range & Detail Breakdown

Tip: The higher you move up amongst the Listing Subscription plans, the more details you can add to your Listing.
All Listings include a built-in contact form so people always have an easy way to reach out to Listing owners.
The email address used when signing up for the platform will be used as the default recipient address, but this can be changed at any time by editing your account details.
Listing owners can have their business address shown for quick reference, as well as shown on a map, providing quick access to directions for users.
Members that are logged into our platform, can review Listings to help others make better-informed decisions. Listing owners can build up their reputation by accumulating positive ratings and reviews.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
As part of the reviews, users can give star-based ratings for specific areas, as well as give an overall star-based rating. The review system is based on a scale of 1 to 5 star ratings with 5 being the highest.
Everyone has to start somewhere and may not have their reputation built up, so not having any reviews isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
Reviews are always screened and approved by PA Wedding Guide. Because we believe in complete transparency, we take the review process very seriously.
Reviews will not be removed unless they meet the following criteria.
- Off-topic
- Restricted content
- Illegal content
- Terrorist content
- Sexually explicit content
- Offensive content
- Dangerous and derogatory content
- Impersonation
- Conflict of interest
Reviews can only be submitted by registered users. Listing owners cannot review their own Listings. Members can be rated by different criteria, depending on their particular Listing Type.
Rating Criteria:
- Value
- Quality of Service
- Average Response Time
- Flexibility
- Professionalism
From your account dashboard, you can easily view valuable information about your overall Listing footprint on our platform, with the ability to filter by a particular Listing and by a specific date range.
The analytics are laid out in a clean, simple fashion, that’s easy to understand and digest.
- Listing Views (Unique): The first time a unique visitor views your Listing and the uniqueness is determined by their IP address.
- Listing Views: If a unique visitor ever looks at your Listing again, this counts as a ‘view’.
- Published Listings: This is how many ‘active’ Listing you currently have on our platform.

Cover Images are ideal for communicating your brand, products, services, etc., and for those that are highly visual, the right cover image could be what makes someone ultimately choose your Listing.
It is really that simple, to have multiple Listings on our platform that might share a lot of the same information. For that, you can easily duplicate any of your existing Listings, in just a few steps.
- From your Listings dashboard, click the ‘Duplicate’ icon on one of your Listings.
- Choose the desired package to place the duplicated Listing under.
- Make any desired changes to what will be your new Listing.
- Preview your Listing and/or Submit it.
To help people easily reach Listing owners and to help get Listings found in search engines, NAP (Name, Address, and Phone Number) is critical information to include in a Listing.
While including a Name (i.e. Listing Title) is a given, Listings can contain the following information, in an actionable format (ex. click-to-call) where possible, to make things even more convenient for users of the platform.
Links to Social Networks can be added to Listings and when a link is added, the name of the network and the corresponding icon are automatically added.
If someone chooses to click on one of the Social Networks, that network’s website will open in a new browser tab, so users can stay on the Listing.
Videos uploaded to services like YouTube or Vimeo can be easily embedded into a Listing.
- Business or Brand Introduction Videos
- Video Testimonials
- Product Overview Videos
- Video-based Guides

Search Prominence
Premium-level Listings appear above all Basic and Standard-level Listings in search.
Promoted Listings are the only Listings that are given more prominence in search, above Premium-level Listings.
Listing Prominence
Premium-level Listings appear on our Home page, and other high-traffic pages, for a time, giving them greater exposure.
Premium-level Listings will hold their spot on the high-traffic pages, for as long as it takes for new, Premium-level Listings or Promoted Listings to push them out.
In order to hold onto your Search and Listing Prominence longer or to help guarantee both, we recommend promoting your Listings.
Standard and Premium-level Listings are automatically granted “verified” status on our platform and will have a badge displayed so other members know those Listings mean business.
While we are always willing to help all of our members, those with a Premium-level membership can get hands-on assistance from our team.
To get started, please reach out.
