The Wedding Shoppe serves brides and bridesmaids nationally online as well as through an adorable brick-and-mortar store in St. Paul, Minnesota. I spent 3 years with the company developing graphic design elements, website pages, email newsletters, social media imagery, google ads, and so much more.

Collaborate with marketing team for website redesign

Social Media Brand Standards
Before I joined the Wedding Shoppe team, there were no clear guidelines for social media marketing. I drafted a simple, visual guide to social media posts that stay consistent to the Wedding Shoppe brand and industry standards.
One year after these standards were in place, the Wedding Shoppe's Facebook "likes" increased by 22,000, and Instagram followers increased by 2,000.
Bridal Fair Handouts
Each year, the Wedding Shoppe hosts a booth at 4+ bridal fairs in Minneapolis and St. Paul. We encounter thousands of brides-to-be at each event. I have designed several handouts and flyers for bridal fairs - here are a few samples.

I designed a variety of emails ranging from new products, blog posts, and current promotions. Newsletter conversion rate went up by 200% during my first month of monitoring email marketing.
