Morning everyone. We have opened a new wedding venue close to Middelburg and we are struggling to get it going and get bookings in. What do you guys suggest for marketing? We've done the wedding expo and we have an advert in the wedding guide.

A good way to start is to make sure your website - if you have one - is findable with some strong search engine optimisation so brides have a chance of finding you on Google. Styled shoots are always a fantastic idea, you'll get great images of your ve nue as it would be set up for a wedding, and get the chance to network with suppliers. Check out Lovilee, The Wedding Directory, Trou Idees and WeddingSA for some advertising, they're all less than R1000 a year and worth listing on.
