AI by industry · Wedding and event planners
Get more reviews for your event planning business
A planner gets more reviews by asking soon after the event, when the client is still glowing, and by making it a single tap. AI drafts a personal request that mentions a moment from the day. Vendors who enjoyed working with you are also a source of reviews and referrals.

Ask while the day is fresh
A few days after the event, a note that mentions something specific, such as the sunset ceremony or the kind way the planner handled a delay, reads as personal. Include a direct link to the page where you want the review.
Reviews do real selling here
Planning is a trust purchase, and prospects read what others say about how you handled stress. Reviews that mention calm, organization and communication matter more than adjectives.
Do not pay for reviews or ask guests to post fake ones. Platforms prohibit it, and it can hurt you.
Vendors are your second audience
Planners rely on referrals from florists, caterers and venues. A note to vendors after a smooth event, thanking them and linking to your page, often leads to a kind word back. Recommendations from people who watch you work under pressure carry weight with future couples, and they cost nothing to ask for.
Picture this
Examples of what it can look like. Illustrations, not clients.
The Monday after a wedding, the couple receives a short thank-you and a review link.
A caterer who worked with you posts a note on your profile. You thank them and offer to return the favor.

Questions
What if the event had a problem?
Reach out personally first. A gracious conversation often matters more than the review itself.
Where should reviews go?
Google is a good first place, and wedding directories where your clients look are another.
