The Lineup
Get listed. Pay nothing.
The Lineup is our list of wedding suppliers who work Dorset weddings, each one checked by a real person. Free to join, application only, and capped in every category so the mix stays balanced.
Free to join. Application only. Limited places in every category.
Three steps, no invoice
Tell us about you
One form. Your work, who you are for, and how you price, so couples know where they stand.
A real person reads it
Not a bot, not a scoring system. We check the fit and we tell you either way.
You go on The Lineup
If there is a place in your category, you are added to The Lineup, where couples can find you. No fee, no tier, no bidding for the top spot.
We are not for everyone
This is for you if
- You want your work to speak for itself, not compete on who shouts loudest
- You treat every couple as a person, not a booking
- You are honest about your pricing and what is included
- You would rather be chosen for fit than for spend
This is not for you if
- You want the top spot and you are happy to pay for it
- You see other suppliers as competition to beat, not people to know
- You would rather stay vague on pricing than have an honest conversation about it
Our Showcases
Being on The Lineup is free. If you want to be in the room with couples on the day, a stand at one of our Showcases has one price for every supplier at that event: £150 for Poole on 31 January. Categories are capped there too, so the mix stays balanced and you are never one of five photographers in a row. You meet couples, and each other.
The things people ask
Is it really free?
Yes. No listing fee, no membership, no tier and no way to pay for a better position. We make our money from Showcase stands, not from The Lineup.
Why is it application only?
Because a list that takes everyone tells couples nothing. We read every application so couples can trust that anyone on The Lineup has actually been looked at by a person.
How many suppliers per category?
Categories are capped and the cap depends on how big the category is. Once one is full, new applications go on a waiting list and we will tell you where you stand.
What happens if you say no?
We tell you straight, and we tell you why. You are welcome to apply again if things change.
Do you guarantee enquiries?
No. A place on The Lineup is visibility, not a bookings guarantee. Anyone promising you otherwise is selling something.
Do I have to publish my prices?
We ask every supplier to be open and candid about pricing, and a starting price or a useful range is the easiest way. Couples deserve to know before they enquire, and it saves you both the wrong conversation.
Do I have to be based in Dorset?
You do not need to be based in Dorset, but you do need to genuinely work Dorset weddings. The Lineup is for suppliers couples here can book.
Come and be on the list
Chosen for fit, not for spend. One form, read by a real person, and a place on The Lineup if your category has room.
