Wedding planners · Local SEO
Be listed where the wedding happens, not only where you sit.
Local SEO for a wedding planner is the near-me result a family checks when searching for a planner in a city, often not the city you sit in. GullySales sets up the Business Profile properly and works the service areas and the venue clusters around it.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.
What local SEO means
Local SEO is the work of making your business show up for searches that name your town or locality, such as a service plus an area name. GullySales sets up locality pages, local citations and map listings so nearby customers find you before a competitor across town.

For wedding planners
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Planners work where they do not live”
Your listing sits in one city while the weddings happen in four. Service areas and destination pages have to do the work an address cannot.
“Local families still search near me”
For a wedding in your own city, a father searching wedding planners near me is a real enquiry, and it usually arrives with a date attached.
“Venue names are search terms”
Families look for a planner who has worked at a particular hall or resort. Naming those venues catches searches nobody else is answering.
“A home office needs explaining”
Many planners work from a flat or a small studio. With no photographs and no meeting details, a parent assumes there is no business there.
What we do
What we deliver for wedding planners.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A profile built for a planner, not a shop
Categories, service areas, how meetings happen, the functions you handle and photographs of the team at work rather than of a desk.
Result: A family can tell what the business actually is.
Service areas set to the cities you work in
Each city and destination you genuinely run weddings in added as a service area, with a page about your work there behind it.
Result: Searches away from your address still find you.
Venue-led posts and photographs
Posts naming the halls, resorts and palaces you have worked at, with photographs from those weddings and the family's permission.
Result: A search for a planner at that venue lands on you.
Reviews asked for on the profile as well
A routine that sends couples and parents to the Business Profile, not only to the wedding platform that brought them.
Result: The listing has recent reviews when a father checks.
One set of details across Maps and the platforms
The same company name, number and address on Google, the wedding platforms, Instagram and the website.
Result: Nobody wonders whether they found two different firms.
Calls and enquiries from the listing reported
Searches that showed the profile, the calls, messages and direction requests that followed, and what they became, read against the starting figures.
Result: You learn whether Maps deserves the attention.
How the result is measured
- Map pack ranking
- Local search visibility
- Enquiries by locality
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
What Google weighs here
How a family finds a wedding planner nearby or in the wedding city, and what to fix first.
- Primary category
- Choose Wedding planner as the primary. Add Event planner only if you also run other events. Planners who list as Event management company are found by corporate buyers, not by families.
- Cities in the service area
- Add the cities where you run weddings and say in the description that you do destination weddings. The pin shows where you sit, and the service area shows where you work.
- Venues you have worked at
- Name the halls, resorts and farmhouses you have run weddings at, in the description and in photograph captions. Families search by venue, and venue managers notice who has worked with them.
- WedMeGood and WeddingWire
- Keep your name, phone, cities and recent work the same as on the Google profile. A couple compares the portal profile with the Maps one, and an old portfolio on one of them is read as a closed business.
- Photographs with consent
- Show set-ups, mandaps and logistics, with the family's consent and no guests' faces. Show the planning desk, the team and a typical timeline, so a family sees what you manage, not only the decor.

How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
First
Your brief
You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.
After the brief
A conversation and a written scope
We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.
Before work starts
Baseline recorded
The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.
After the baseline
The first fix goes live
The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.
As agreed
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.
At renewal
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.
How the local SEO work runs
- 1
Audit every listing
We check the Google Business Profile and directory listings for every branch against what should actually be shown.
- 2
Complete and correct
Profiles are filled in fully and inconsistent details are corrected across every directory found.
- 3
Build location pages
Each branch gets a page written for its own area, not a copy of the head office page with the address changed.
- 4
Set up review handling
A simple process for requesting and responding to reviews is put in place with whoever is closest to the customer.
- 5
Report and adjust
Map actions and enquiries per branch are reported, and branches falling behind are prioritised the next month.
Why us
Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.
Marketing and sales, as one job
Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.
The person on the first call does the work
No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.
A baseline before anything starts
Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.
The fee in writing, split three ways
Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.
No guarantees we cannot keep
The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.
