    The Business of Luxury Weddings is designed to help wedding photographers break into the luxury market, attract high-end clients, and book weddings at $20K–$60K+. Inside, you’ll learn how to reposition your brand, refine your messaging, and create a client experience that resonates with luxury buyers. This program provides the tools, strategies, and mentorship needed to confidently sell at a higher level and build a profitable, sustainable business in the luxury wedding space.

    Curriculum

    A 7-part roadmap to a radically different business.

    Module 1
    Build the right business
    This is where it starts—not with better photos, but with better strategy. You’ll stop playing small, get clear on what you actually want, and begin building a business designed for margin, not burnout.
    You’ll discover:

    • Why business is your most creative tool
    • How to set a revenue target and reverse-engineer your plan
    • The pillars we use to run a $50K-per-wedding business
    • The difference between a hustle business and a scalable one

    Module 2
    Build a brand that opens doors
    Your brand isn’t just how you look—it’s how you make people feel. In this module, we’ll help you shape a magnetic identity that attracts high-value clients and commands respect in any room.
    You’ll discover:

    • Who your ideal client really is—and how to position for them
    • What creates elevated brand perception (and what quietly repels)
    • How to build a brand story that draws people in without over-explaining
    • How to align visuals, tone, and messaging with the clients you want most

    Module 3
    Get in the room
    The opportunities you’re dreaming about? They’re already happening—you’re just not in the room yet. We’ll show you how to get in, stay in, and build relationships that open doors for years to come.
    You’ll learn:

    • The key to getting noticed by planners who hold the keys to premium clients
    • How to create value in conversations (even when you feel like an outsider)
    • Our exact outreach method to go from “stranger” to trusted creative
    • Why most marketing fails—and the single shift that changes everything
    • How to build a network that fuels your calendar, your confidence, and your brand

    Module 4
    How to sell without selling
    Whether you’re aiming for $10K or $20K bookings, high-end clients don’t respond to pressure—they respond to presence. You’ll learn how to lead conversations that feel collaborative, not transactional—and close high-value bookings with confidence.
    You’ll discover:

    • How to shift from a “package pitch” to a presence-driven conversation
    • What price points signal premium vs. luxury—and how to position your own
    • The key mindset shifts that create trust (instead of triggering negotiation)
    • How to lead a sales call that actually deepens connection—not just explains deliverables
    • The art of creating scarcity without feeling inauthentic

    Module 5
    Systems to scale
    If you want to grow, you need systems that scale with you. This module gives you the behind-the-scenes setup we use to simplify logistics, automate growth, and save hours every week.
    You’ll discover:

    • What tech stack actually supports a high-end business
    • How to outsource without losing quality
    • Our CRM, calendar, and accounting setup
    • Travel workflows that work—whether you’re flying private or commercial

    Module 6
    Create an experience they’ll never forget
    The best clients don’t just come back with praise—they come back with referrals. This module shows you how to deliver an experience that builds deep trust, elevates your reputation, and becomes your best marketing tool.
    You’ll discover:

    • How to guide high-end clients through a seamless, elevated process
    • What planners and families really remember after the wedding
    • How to show up on-location like a pro (without extra stress)
    • The subtle, powerful moments that turn clients into advocates

    Module 7
    Step into your luxury era
    This is your send-off—but it’s really your new beginning. You’ll leave with a clear plan, a renewed mindset, and the confidence to build a business that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.
    You’ll discover:

    • How to keep growing after the course
    • The mindset we’ve used to double revenue year after year
    • Why belief in yourself is a business strategy
    • A final call to claim the life you actually want

    I watched their pitch video the other day (https://player.vimeo.com/video/844459179) they're definitely selling the lifestyle part of it, and I wonder how much of the process would be constantly harassing high level wedding planners :D I also don't quite agree with the 'value' of the course ($13,694) :eek:, and the reduced, bargain-price, only-available-for-a-limited-time-only $2897 cost is obviously pretty hefty. Even divided by five, that's almost $600 each.

    What are other people's thoughts? How much would you be willing to kick in? Maybe divided by ten people?

    There is NOTHING in this course that you can't learn from other sources already. Business is business and has been the same principles since the dawn of time.
    Price point though, it's fair. That's less that one wedding (on the deal price) and potentially 1 or 2 weddings with the full.
    Some people need to spend that amount to have the kick up the arse to take action.
    If this is something you truly want more than anything in the world then you can do it with this course or not. If you're going half arsedly about it then you won't succeed no matter what knowledge you posses. "it's what you do, not what you know"

    the price to be paid by each member (no less than 10€/$, no more than 100€/$) as rules says, So I think it's seems impossible to get the Year-Long Group Mentorship Program, but we can get The Business of Luxury Weddings Program which costs $2897

    And I will be happy to start GB for that, but first let the OP or anyone make a list with 30 person interested at least

    I have cancelled this GB due to the lack of interested participants.
