Wedding PR Membership

OFD Collective, the industry’s first-of-its-kind wedding PR membership, offers a comprehensive suite of resources, including curated PR leads, monthly webinars on wedding public relations topics, regular office hours with the OFD team, and a robust library of templates, media interviews, articles, and more.

The Collective offers three distinct tracks, allowing members to focus on their current goals: gaining press recognition as an expert in their niche, publishing more weddings, or securing speaking engagements within the wedding industry.

Yearly, the OFD Collective also hosts a Wedding Submissions Course for those interested in representing their own work. 

Wedding industry speakers

WeddingIndustrySpeakers.com was created by OFD Consulting to address the growing need for vetted, high-quality speakers in the wedding industry. After launching OFD Consulting to connect wedding professionals with engaged couples, the team identified a significant demand for B2B publicity services, particularly for expert speakers at regional, national, and international events.

Historically, low barriers to entry led to inconsistent speaker quality and audience disappointment. In response, OFD began rigorously vetting clients for engaging content, professionalism, and positive feedback. WeddingIndustrySpeakers.com now serves as a trusted resource for event organizers to easily select qualified speakers for their programs.
