How It Works

From application to booking, we handle every step of the process.

1

Submit Your Application

Kick things off by filling out our quick application form with the basics—general property specs, location, and property highlights. Once we've reviewed it, we'll schedule a call with our team to further discuss and vet your property, answer questions, and outline our process.

2

Curation Review Process

Our team personally reviews every submission against strict standards—wedding suitability, quality, and market fit. We're selective for a reason: to make sure your property shines in a high-value category.

3

Profile Creation & Setup

If approved, we lock in your onboarding fee and commission structure. Then you send us your professional photos, video, and all the good stuff we need to build a polished, high-converting listing, a smart pricing calculator, and your launch marketing campaign. Need updated visuals? We'll help coordinate a shoot that sells.

4

Go Live & Start Earning

Your property goes live, and we get to work—driving in qualified leads, handling all communication, and securing bookings with deposits. Got your own wedding inquiry leads from other channels? Send them our way—we'll handle the entire process and close the deal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from property owners considering partnership.

How selective is the WedStay portfolio?

Very. Less than 10% of properties that apply are accepted into the WedStay portfolio. We curate for quality, uniqueness, wedding suitability, location, and market fit — so being part of the collection genuinely means something to couples.

What are the three partnership tiers?

WedStay Collection (Tier 1) — we list, market, and book the couples we generate for a 20% commission, with no exclusivity. Weddings by WedStay (Tier 2) — we become your dedicated wedding sales team, managing every wedding lead from any source plus all back-of-house, for a lower 15% commission. WedStay Signature (Tier 3) — a fully custom, done-for-you growth partnership.

What is the onboarding fee — and is it refundable?

Tiers 1 and 2 include an onboarding investment of $500 per month for the first five months. It is fully refundable after 12 months if WedStay has not brought you a booking, which makes joining effectively risk-free. Tier 3 onboarding is custom, scoped to the work involved.

Do I give up my brand or control?

Never. Your property is always the brand and you keep 100% brand ownership across every tier. The higher the tier, the more of the wedding business WedStay runs behind the scenes — but the spotlight always stays on your property.

Will weddings interfere with my regular short-term-rental business?

No. You keep operating your short-term rental independently and we work around your calendar, filling gaps with high-value wedding bookings. At Tier 2 and above we also handle the wedding communication, insurance, contracts, coordination, and logistics so it stays off your plate.

How do I choose the right tier?

Choose Tier 1 if you want exposure and bookings but prefer to run your own wedding business. Choose Tier 2 if you want WedStay to manage every wedding lead and the back office for a lower commission. Choose Tier 3 if you want a fully done-for-you growth partner. You can start in one tier and move up as you grow.

Ready to join the portfolio?

Apply to partner with WedStay and choose the tier that fits how you want to grow — from lead generation to a fully done-for-you wedding business. Your property is always the brand.
