What This is Not

The Collective is not a pay-for-leads program.
We don’t sell contact lists, preferred placement, or transactional access to couples.

Instead, your participation allows us to do something much more meaningful:

• Thoughtfully feature your work in luxury planning materials — including printed guides and editorial-style pieces couples actually keep, reference, and share
• Introduce your brand through story and context, not advertisements — positioning you as an artisan, not a vendor
• Create curated events, showcases, and seasonal gatherings that highlight your craft in real, lived experiences
• Invest in professional photography, printing, hosting, and production that elevates everyone involved

Your Collective contribution directly supports the creation of these materials and experiences — the design, printing, editorial curation, and events that allow your work to be seen beautifully and authentically.

Our couples don’t encounter you as a recommendation on a list — they meet you through trust, artistry, and immersion. That is where true alignment happens.

We are intentionally keeping the Collective small, aligned, and values-driven. Every participant is chosen with care, and participation is meant to feel mutually honoring — never extractive.

WHAT VENDORS RECEIVE AS MEMBERS OF THE WILDFLOWER COLLECTIVE:

1. Exclusive Access to Our Wildflower Couples

Your work will be placed directly in front of couples who are already primed for elevated, romantic, garden-driven storytelling.

What this means:

• Your brand is introduced immediately upon booking — not months later.

• Brides meet you within a context of trust: if you're in the Collective, you’re already vetted as exceptional.

• You bypass the noise of the saturated Georgia vendor market and stand beside the absolute best.

• Our couples prioritize Collective vendors first — and often exclusively.

This is one of the strongest lead-generation ecosystems in the Lake Oconee region.

2. Inclusion in The Wildflower Wedding Planning Book

Every prospective and booked bride receives our physical, beautifully designed Wildflower Planning Book during tours and onboarding.

This book is treated like a treasure.
Couples keep it on their nightstands. Parents read it. Planners use it.

As a Collective Member, you are required to advertise:

Advertising Tiers

• Half Page — $300/month

• Full Page — $600/month

• Double Spread (2 full pages) — $1,200/month

Minimum membership requirement:
All Collective vendors must maintain at least one half-page advertisement ($300/month).
This ensures quality, consistency, and an elevated aesthetic that aligns with your brand.

What this means for you:

• Your work becomes a part of every couple’s planning journey.

• You gain subconscious visibility that no online platform can replicate.

• Your brand becomes woven into our venue identity.

• The more space you take, the more dominant your position becomes.

This book is your year-round advertising engine.
