Overview

Wildman BT partnered with Butter & Vine to create a wedding giveaway rooted in connection, not just visibility. The goal wasn’t simply to be seen, it was to reach couples who were actively planning, build trust through storytelling, and create a moment that felt welcoming, personal, and aligned with how weddings are actually experienced.

 

Rather than relying on constant posting or overproduction, the campaign unfolded intentionally over several weeks, using a focused content launch, consistent story touch points, and a meaningful in-person moment, a cocktail party where the winner was announced and couples could experience the venue in real life.

 

Amour Tales led the campaign strategy and creative execution, supporting the partnership from launch through post-event storytelling with a clear focus on community, clarity, and conversion.

The Opportunity

In the wedding industry, couples aren’t just choosing a space, they’re choosing how they want to feel. Trust, personality, and real-life experience matter just as much as aesthetics.

 

This campaign was designed to:

  • Reach engaged couples locally and intentionally

  • Encourage genuine participation rather than passive engagement

  • Create a bridge between online discovery and in-person experience

 

By centering the campaign around a trusted venue caterer partnership, the giveaway felt elevated, collaborative, and aligned with how couples actually plan their weddings.

Strategy

Amour Tales developed a story-led campaign strategy built around three key principles:

 

Partnership First

Wildman BT and Butter & Vine served as the anchor partners, creating a strong foundation of trust, credibility, and shared audience.

 

Intentional Content Over Volume

Instead of spreading attention across many posts, the campaign focused on one strong launch reel, supported by a carousel and consistent Instagram Stories to guide participation and maintain momentum.

 

Connection Beyond the Screen

To bring the campaign full circle, Wildman BT hosted an in-person cocktail party to announce the winner and welcome couples into the space, reinforcing the idea that weddings are ultimately about experience, not just online discovery.

 

As the campaign gained visibility, additional wedding vendors organically reached out to be involved, a clear reflection of its resonance within the local wedding community. A light paid boost was applied to the launch reel in the final days leading up to the entry deadline to increase local visibility and encourage last-minute participation.
