Objective & Strategy
We partnered with The Oldwalls Collection to create their biggest ever competition, the 'Win a Wedding' campaign. Upon winning, one lucky couple would receive a luxurious wedding worth up to £15,000.
We created a compelling data capture campaign where the objective extended beyond just finding a winning couple. 'Win a Wedding' was designed to cultivate a rich database for re-marketing, aiming to convert participants into customers through tailored offers and promotions.
This dual approach leveraged the excitement around a wedding giveaway to build a long-term marketing asset, demonstrating a sophisticated understanding of the interplay between immediate engagement and ongoing customer relationship building.
Target Audience
The campaign's target audience was intricately defined to maximise its reach and effectiveness. Primarily focusing on engaged couples who are actively planning their weddings, the campaign was tailored to resonate with their desires and aspirations for a dream wedding.
To amplify the campaign's visibility and engagement, the strategy also encompassed the general public. This broader audience was engaged through a unique voting system for the final contestants, transforming passive viewers into active participants.
This approach not only built substantial brand awareness among potential customers but also fostered a community-centric event, culminating in a live-streamed finale that attracted over 10,000 viewers, thus bridging the gap between direct target market engagement and wider public involvement.
Creative Assets
The campaign utilised emotive and impactful creatives across Facebook and Instagram, with a focus on short, compelling copy. The grand finale was aired on YouTube, creating a sequence of touch-points throughout the competition.
Performance Metrics
The performance metrics of the "Win A Wedding" campaign vividly illustrate its success:

Learning & Future Planning

The unprecedented success, highlighted by a 100% increase in website visits and a remarkable ROI of 1:21, underscored the power of social media and targeted digital marketing.
