Wedding Affiliate Program
I recently wrote a comment strongly recommending the Bridaluxe Wedding Affiliate Program in reply to this question from JBird85 in the WAHM forum:
“I was looking for different programs for people in the wedding niche and I came across a network called Bridaluxe.
Has anybody here used them, and is it a good (legit ) program?”
Hoping to be helpful, ampris2000, who has an online gaming fun site, replied “just type bridaluxe scam in google and see what shows up”
While it is obvious TO ME that she didn’t mean to imply Bridaluxe was a scam, I was concerned others might not realize she was offering generic advice not specific to them.
I realized what I wrote in my comment is a perfect description to share with my readers about why I recommend Bridaluxe. Here is the comment:
I highly recommend the Bridaluxe niche Wedding Affiliate Program and assure you it is definitely not a scam. It is one of the very best affiliate networks and for any wedding site it is as good as using Commission Junction and ShareASale (considered one of the cleanest affiliate networks) and better for wedding related sites.
You can add one line of javascript code to any site and instantly have a Wedding Store complete with products from all of their merchants (without having to apply to a single one!) – and that store is automatically updated with daily specials.
On top of that Bridaluxe stores will convert better than manually created sites because they have an algorithm that rearranges the products being offered based on what is currently selling best. If something gets media buzz and becomes hot your store will automatically have that product in prime position for maximum sales.
Their stores are far superior to Amazon stores especially in this case. I manage one site that has a Bridaluxe store and am the advisor to another that has an Amazon store. There is no comparison. If you operate in the wedding niche definitely go with Bridaluxe.
Bridaluxe collects your commissions for you and pays you directly the same way Commission Junction and other affiliate networks do. I have never heard a single complaint of them not paying their affiliates on time – and I recommend them regularly in my own blog.
There are a couple of points I forgot to include in that comment. One is that Bridaluxe has the longest cookie duration of any affiliate program I have ever seen. They use 365 day cookies. That makes sense if you consider that many plan weddings over a very long period of time.
They also have tiered commissions that are very beneficial to the affiliates while less so to the merchants in that affiliates are rewarded with higher commissions for combined sales from all merchants. I encourage affiliate publishers to read more about the benefits of joining Bridaluxe.
Both merchants and affiliates should know that Bridaluxe runs a clean affiliate program free of toolbar publishers, parasites, cookie stuffers, coupon scrapers, or any other bad players.
Merchants selling wedding related products should consider Bridaluxe because of their innovative stores that automatically feature hot selling products and their willingness to personally train affiliates for you in their use.
Worried about getting Cisco Certified or the difficulty of the ccna 640-802 exam? Get up to date 642-524 dumps and 642-533 dumps to pass your exam with ease.
They can provide instant visibility for merchants on many prominent wedding related sites and dozens if not hundreds of blogs. See details on their merchant wedding affiliate program.
P.S. If JBird85 had any information in their profile they would be linked in this post (and if they let me know I will still do that for them).
Bridaluxe is such a great idea for bloggers that I sincerely hope they will license their solution to create stores for other niche affiliate programs.

I have browsed this service and have recommended it to a friend. They were very happy with the service. I also agree that it converts better for affiliates due to their algorithm to sort out products that are hot in today’s market.

Bridaluxe has a very good reputation for running a clean program among both affiliates and OPMs (Outsourced Program Managers – what the people who manage affiliate programs for merchants are called). That is important to both affiliates and merchants.

Hi Dennis,
Derek might know how to code something like that and I have suggested to Bridaluxe that they could collaborate with others to use their system in other niches. I could use stores for golf, horses and healthy living!

This does sound interesting, however “Their stores are far superior to Amazon stores especially in this case” is a bold claim indeed. We use amazon and have had some very good results, however I suppose the benifit of amazon is in the name itself. Also the long cokkies (365 day) I would image is essential, from my own experiance my wife took over 2 years to plan!
Twitter: @GrowMap
The Amazon stores I have seen are not anywhere nearly as effective as their own site. They don’t have sorting functionality. I just looked again and neither of these store offerings are as effective as they could be.
If you look at the Construction tools store that Good Moldings offers you’ll see that you can’t sort by tool type or by price or by most popular or any of the other options a great ecommerce site offers.

Bridaluxe looks like a great opportunity for anyone who’s operating a wedding blog and is seeking to monetize their domain without a lot of effort.
Twitter: @GrowMap
I’m just glad you’re back! I just replied to a comment you left in a newer post before I saw this one. I answer comments as I can which is getting more challenging as the number of comments here and in our other blogs increases.
One blog you may want to visit is Gift Blog. We write about wedding related topics there including Groomsmen Gifts.
That blog is also dofollow and uses CommentLuv and KeywordLuv and has posts about our Wedding Affiliate Program and a Bridaluxe "http://execgiftsblog.com/wedding-store/">Wedding Store.
I’m working on a new way to syndicate guest blog posts that might interest you. I’m sure my readers here would be interested in expertise you can share and a post about choosing a wedding DJ would fit at ExecGifts.

Hello Inya,
While PR can be useful many excellent sites have no PR because they inadvertently broke one of the false G’s rules. I believe that many more sites will lose their PR and incoming links as the search engine results continue to be manipulated.
Wise Internet users need to look beyond the superficial, deeper into the results and above all use INDEPENDENT alternative search engines. It would be a very good idea to start saving links to sites you like because it may become increasingly difficult to find them in the major search engines.

Bridaluxe seems legit enough. My site is not based on their product, but it seems like it might have been an easier solution than building a wedding site by hand. Oh well.
I am not actually in a wedding site buts its good to hear that you can rely online or with your affiliate online if you want to know the legitimacy of one site. Its good that there are also users concern who give genuine answers. Thanks a lot.
Bridaluxe is a great product. I know many people in the indusrty how are currenlty using it.
This is going to be a good affiliate program to the weeding website owners and for those who wish to have wedding ideas.
“Merchants selling wedding related products should consider Bridaluxe because of their innovative stores that automatically feature hot selling products and their willingness to personally train affiliates for you in their use” always good to have an option like this on a site . never heard of bridaluze will try it myself!
