In recent years, Indonesia has experienced an incredible surge in internet usage, connecting a staggering 77.02% of its population by 2022. This digital transformation has ushered in a multitude of opportunities and challenges for various industries, and the wedding business is no exception. As more couples turn to the web for their nuptial needs, wedding vendors find themselves grappling with a unique set of challenges.
One of the most significant obstacles faced by both vendors and customers in this digital age is the issue of credibility. With a plethora of wedding services available online, ranging from event management and venue selection to bridal makeup and overall event coordination, customers are often left bewildered by the complex array of decisions they must make. Moreover, the high costs and substantial time investments associated with these services add further complexity to the equation.
