How we’ve reworked the About page – and why

The current page opens with “Meet Our Mother-Daughter Duo” and two personal bios. It’s warm, but it reads as two individuals who love travel – and barely touches the thing that can’t be replicated: the depth of your relationships and the network. This rework keeps the duo – it’s your story – but makes the relationships the spine.  View the current About page →

Finding 01

Relationships barely featured

The one truly unreplicable asset – a decade of relationships and the planner network – is almost absent. It now leads, as the reason Wedaways operates at a different level.

Finding 02

Two bios, not a brand

The page reads as personal CVs (countries visited, degrees). Reframed so the founders serve the brand story rather than compete with it.

Finding 03

The duo, repositioned

The mother-daughter story stays – but as “two roles, one vision”: the bond becomes proof of a business built on relationship, not just a shared love of travel.

Finding 04

It felt like a small team

Currently “a lead advisor and five others.” The wider team, the 120-planner network and the standing are surfaced – a company, not two people.

Our Story

A decade of relationships you can’t replicate.

The people, the properties and the network behind every Wedaways journey.

Why this blockSets the tone in the first seconds: warm and authoritative. The headline leads with the USP – relationships built over time – rather than “meet the team,” so a visitor understands immediately that this is a company operating at a different level.

02 – Why We’re Different
The Difference

We know this world from the inside.

Copy briefTwo short paragraphs: over eleven years, Wedaways has built the relationships, the firsthand property knowledge and the planner network that no search engine can replicate. We have been inside these properties. We are in the room. When something has to be flawless, the people who genuinely know this world are standing behind every decision. Stated as fact, never as a claim.

Inside the properties

We have walked the spaces, met the teams and stayed in the rooms – so the guidance is firsthand, not a listing.

In the room

A direct line to the people who run the world’s finest properties – relationships that open doors others can’t.

The planner network

The most trusted luxury wedding planners, cultivated over years – the qualification and reach behind every introduction.

Why this blockThis is the moat. It’s the one thing a competitor with a bigger marketing budget still can’t copy, so it earns the lead position – the “why Wedaways” before any “who.” Language drawn from the brand guidelines (“we have been inside these properties”).

03 – More Than the Day
The Whole Picture

Known for weddings. Trusted for everything after.

Copy briefOne confident paragraph, drawn from your insight document: the wedding is where the relationship begins, not where it ends. Wedaways is the trusted travel partner for destination celebrations – and the honeymoons, anniversaries, family journeys and milestone trips that follow, often for a lifetime. We don’t design ceremonies or choose florals; we handle everything that surrounds the day, and everything after. The business has quietly outgrown the word “wedding.”

What people assume
  • A wedding planning service
  • A directory or search tool
  • One celebration, then done
What we actually are
  • The travel around the celebration
  • The property relationships & access
  • A lifetime travel partner – honeymoons & beyond

Why this blockRather than deny what Wedaways isn’t, this section expands what it is – the travel partner for the celebration and every journey after, for a lifetime. The ledger corrects the old “wedding planner” assumption confidently, never defensively.

04 – The Founders
A Mother & Daughter

Two roles. One vision.

Copy briefA short, warm line: Wedaways is led by a mother and daughter whose partnership is the company’s foundation – the clearest proof that this is a business built on relationship. Two complementary roles; neither works without the other.

Founder · The Travel & The Relationships

Copy briefThe travel, the planner relationships and the sales. A lifetime in the industry and the personal relationships that the booking operation is built on – the person planners call. Warm, deeply experienced, trusted.

Portrait – Renée Strauss

CEO · The Brand & The Partnerships

Copy briefThe brand, the property partnerships and the platform. Leads the commercial direction, the marketing engine and the relationships with the world’s finest properties. Strategic, authoritative, forward-looking.

“A mother and a daughter. Two roles, one vision – and neither works without the other.”

Why this blockThe duo stays – it’s authentic and it’s theirs – but reframed from “two women who love travel” to two clear, complementary roles. The mother-daughter bond becomes the human embodiment of the relationships the whole brand is built on. Portraits and bios to come from you.

05 – The Team & The Reach
More Than Two

A company built on relationships – at scale.

Copy briefOne paragraph: behind Pamela and Renée is a dedicated team of travel advisors and a partnerships function, working alongside a global network of planners and property relationships. The personal touch of a boutique; the reach and standing of a platform.

Why this block & to confirmSurfacing the wider team and the network is what shifts the perception from “two people” to “a company operating at a level.” Figures to confirm with you – team size, the planner count, the property number – so every one stands up if a partner or couple checks.

06 – Start a Conversation
The Beginning of the Relationship

Every Wedaways journey starts with a conversation.

Copy briefA warm, open invitation – whether you’re a couple, a planner or a property, it begins with a conversation, not a form. The same relationship-led approach the whole page describes, extended to you.
