How many hours does your team spend on showrounds that never become bookings?
I used to be an independent wedding planner, taking couples on up to four venue showrounds in a single day.
It was always a lovely day out, but the reality was that three of those four venues would often receive a polite “thanks, but no thanks” message soon afterwards.
Had those venues offered a virtual tour beforehand, we could probably have narrowed the shortlist down to just one in-person visit.
That would have saved the couple time, travel and decision fatigue, while saving the venue teams from spending hours showing around couples who had already decided the space wasn’t quite right for them.
A virtual tour doesn’t replace the in-person showround.
It helps couples explore your venue properly before they visit, so the people walking through your doors are more likely to already know they love the space.
That means fewer unsuitable appointments, better-qualified enquiries and more valuable conversations with the couples who do visit.
As a former wedding planner, I’ve seen this process from the couple’s side.
Now, I create immersive virtual tours that help wedding venues make every showround count.
