Website and your other social media platforms. Feedback is very important, and should appear everywhere.

each other.

Talk about E-Mail addresses, making them more personal ( Weddings, Events, Names) Not Sales. Also names, job titles and descriptions of the relevant people who are in your Weddings or Events team, showing there personal email addresses, this makes the clients experience more personal. These can be shown on your social media pages as well as your websites and other marketing material. Make it easy for clients to contact you, maybe even add direct phone numbers, as many clients, would like to speak rather than email. Some clients may want to have a facetime or Skype with you, when making there initial enquiries, having this option is another quick way of communication, just like a face to face meeting.
