5 Tips To Improve Your Chances of Getting Featured on WeddingSutra
Wedding Planning - Dec 16, 2016
WeddingSutra – the most popular resource on Wedding Planning for Indians around the world – is all about you!
From your engagement and wedding memories, love stories and memorable honeymoons, we love hearing from couples who want to be featured on our website, and pick stories we receive after a careful selection process. We believe that every couple’s story that we publish on WeddingSutra has the power to inspire another couple starting out on the same journey – and that’s what motivates us to get better every year.
However, we do not publish every story or all photos that we receive. After a careful assessment, our editorial panel chooses few stories that make it to the website and select photos which make it to our social media pages (Instagram, Facebook).
We get lots of email queries and submissions from couples about their beautiful experiences daily via email. For example, one reader wrote to us, asking “My fiance wants our wedding to be featured on WeddingSutra, and I know you must be deluged with submissions. Is there a possibility of our nuptials getting featured?”
This email reflects what a lot of couples want to know – what should they do to get featured on WeddingSutra? The good news? It’s a very simple process, and if you follow the five important tips below, you improve your chances of getting picked to be featured – which trust us, is a lot of fun! These tips have been compiled by our social media and editorial teams, so take note below:
Step 1- Share your story on ‘Just Engaged’
Our ‘Just Engaged’ album on Facebook features couples who are soon to be married. Whether it is a professionally shot photo or a candid moment of you two, share your ‘How We Met’ story with us on ‘Just Engaged’.
How to Submit:

Professional Photographers can also contribute to this section by sending in photos of their clients from the formal engagement ceremony or pre-wedding shoots.
Step 2- Spend some time on ‘Real Weddings‘ section on our blog, and browse the different albums on Facebook to understand how other recently-weds have shared their story/ experiences

Your memories will be beautifully presented by us according to a defined format and we bet you will love reliving the memories even years later with every click.

We instantly fall in love with beautifully framed and candidly shot photos by wedding photographers. So we recommend you brief your photographer beforehand about the photos you are looking for to get featured on WeddingSutra. Keep this photo checklist handy.
Step 4- Write to us after your wedding. Share 8-10 photos from your wedding and your honeymoon
After receiving the photos from your photographer, write to us with basic details like your names, wedding date, location and function themes, along with 8-10 selected photos from the entire wedding. A combination of a shot each of the pre-wedding shoot, mehndi, haldi, cocktail, sangeet, pheras, reception and decor is perfect to start with.
