Why Wedding Officiants Need Automation

A typical day in your business might include:

  • Responding to DMs, texts, and emails from couples
  • Juggling availability across multiple platforms
  • Forgetting follow-ups after sending a quote
  • Struggling to upsell personalized services or add-ons
  • Losing track of key ceremony info (names, date, location, vows)

GoHighLevel centralizes all of this, with tools built for client journey automation—not just contact management.
