How to Become a Wedding Vendor on DayOf
Ok you're hooked. So now you're wondering how to become a wedding vendor with DayOf, the process is straightforward and designed to get you booking clients quickly.
Step 1: Create Your Account HERE
Start by entering your name, email address and password.
You will verify your email before moving forward. This is essential because booking requests and notifications are sent through the platform.
Step 2: Build Your Vendor Profile
Next, you’ll complete your bio and upload a personal introduction video.
This video is important. It allows couples to understand your personality, your process, and what it feels like to work with you. In a sea of sameness, this is your opportunity to stand out.
Step 3: Set Your All Day Price
DayOf operates with transparent, upfront pricing.
You will set one all day base price that reflects the expectations of a full wedding day. Your pricing should be informed by the DayOf Standard guide. The DayOf Standard is not mandatory, but it helps you ensure you are covering client expectations while pricing in a way that speaks to your value.

Step 5: Your Business Location
While this step asks for your full business address, this is solely for verification purposes. Your profile will only show your local city and state on your listing.
Step 6: Set Your Availability
You will first set your general availability. For example, you may decide you only want to accept DayOf bookings on Saturdays.
After setting general availability, you can block specific dates you are already booked.
It is your responsibility to keep your availability updated. There are repercussions for inaccurate availability, so this step matters.
