Venue Acquisition Partner Program
Build a Portfolio.
Earn Recurring Revenue.
Wedstead is building the leading marketplace for wedding and event venues. As a Venue Acquisition Partner (VAP), you play a key role in that growth by sourcing, onboarding, and supporting high-quality properties.
This is an opportunity to build your own portfolio of venues and earn ongoing revenue from every booking generated through Wedstead.
💼 What is a VAP?
Your Role in the Wedstead Ecosystem
Source High-Quality Venues
Identify farms, barns, estates, wineries, waterfront properties, and unique spaces. Prioritize venues with strong visual appeal and event potential.
Optimize Each Property
Work with venue owners to increase earning potential — recommend improvements, ensure professional photos, help define pricing strategies.
Promote Your Portfolio
Build relationships with wedding planners, network within the industry, share listings across social media, and create local vendor partnerships.
💰 How You Earn
Ongoing Revenue, Not One-Time Commissions
As your portfolio grows, your income compounds. This is a long-term opportunity, not a referral fee.
