Annual program returns to award wedding professionals across the US

BETHESDA, MD – July 22, 2009 – WeddingWire, the nation’s leading wedding technology company, is excited to unveil WeddingWire Rated 2009. WeddingWire created the annual program to help brides and grooms easily find the right wedding professionals for their needs, while also honoring wedding professionals across the country for their excellence. The WeddingWire Network currently has over 100,000 rated wedding professionals across 20 different categories, from florists to venues to cakes.

“We are excited to unveil WeddingWire Rated 2009, now in its third year. With hundreds of thousands of reviews, WeddingWire has made it easy for engaged couples to provide feedback and for wedding professionals to showcase their continued success,” according to Sonny Ganguly, WeddingWire’s Chief Marketing Officer. “WeddingWire provides our community with the latest technology to capture, manage, and showcase newlywed-written reviews of wedding products and services.”

Each review has been written by newlyweds who used the services of wedding professionals, and include detailed ratings and insightful descriptions of their experiences. From quality of service to overall level of professionalism, reviews are designed to give incoming brides and grooms a clear understanding of what they are looking for.

Reviews are also a powerful tool for every wedding business in the WeddingWire Network. With the WeddingWire Rated program, wedding professionals can capitalize by promoting their businesses through the program to the millions of visitors searching for vendors in the WeddingWire Network each month.
