Google Before Instagram: Why Couples Search Before They Scroll
If you do business in the DC metro area, then join us for our next networking event on Wednesday, August 12, 2026. We’ll be ONLINE!
You’ve spent time perfecting your Instagram feed. You post beautiful photos, create Reels, and stay active on social media. But when a couple is ready to make a decision, where do they go?
More often than not, they start with Google.
They search for wedding venues, photographers, planners, florists, and caterers near them. They read reviews, compare websites, and look for businesses they trust before they ever send an inquiry. If your business isn’t showing up in those searches, you’re missing opportunities to connect with couples who are actively looking to book.
In this Women’s Wedding Network session, Rebecca Barnes, CEO of Imagine and Publisher of Brides & Weddings, will explore how today’s couples actually search for wedding professionals and why Google has become one of the most powerful marketing tools available to your business.
We’ll discuss:
- Why couples search before they scroll
- What Google Business Profile says about your business
- Why reviews matter more than ever
- The role your website plays in earning trust
- How AI is changing search and vendor discovery
- Simple steps you can take today to improve your visibility
Whether you’re a venue, photographer, planner, florist, DJ, caterer, baker, rental company, or beauty professional, you’ll leave with practical strategies to help more couples find your business—and choose you with confidence.
Join us as we explore where booking decisions really begin and how to make sure your business is part of the conversation before couples ever open Instagram.
