Wedding Affiliate Program: Bridaluxe ~ Problems

February 9, 2010 By Gail Gardner 95 Comments

LATEST: Angela, the new affiliate manager for Bridaluxe has responded to my tweet and has contacted an affiliate I know that has been waiting to hear back from them. I asked her to respond to all affiliates and especially to immediately reply at ABestWeb. It would be wise for Bridaluxe to seek out all complaints published online and respond to them.

When the problems are resolved I will update this post to reflect the current status.

UPDATE: Bridaluxe has changed ownership and is NOT responding to affiliates or paying them. See the ABestWeb forum for additional information about Bridaluxe Ignoring Affiliates.

We DO NOT RECOMMEND joining Bridaluxe any more.
If you have been promoting them you will want to remove their links.

Wedding Affiliate Program
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.

    What I can’t understand is why there was a discussion one day only. The comments here are from February 1, the comments ended on abestweb on February 2, and the twitter page was a one day thing.

    So in reality, does this mean that no-one is getting paid? Why did they even bother to do a one day contact and communicate if everything is being left as it was with no payments.

    Plus, hw come noone is continuing to talk aboutit anywhere. Any Ideas?

      Hi Katie,

      It is human nature that people will complain but rarely come back to let others know when things are resolved. Since no one has said they did NOT get paid and the last entry from Bridaluxe was that checks were being sent that day it is likely that they were sent. The only way to know for sure it to ask individuals who were complaining directly.

      I would expect there to be more complaints on the ABestWeb forum if they did not follow through and actually pay everyone.

      I have asked for an update at ABestWeb in that thread and tweeted to @Bridaluxe on Twitter asking them to respond to your comment.

    Kattie, honestly the only reason I haven’t been communicating on Twitter is because I have not had time. I have responded to GrowMap on ABestWeb – http://www.abestweb.com/forums/unethical-merchants-470/bridaluxe-affiliate-program-ignoring-affiliates-151996-2.html#post1115387

      Hi Angela,

      Thank you for updating affiliates here and especially at ABestWeb. I didn’t want them jumping to conclusions when we didn’t know what the status was. Quiet (no new complaints) usually means progress is being made and people are more patient when they know what is going on.

      You definitely landed in a tough situation and I am glad that the affiliates are being understanding since you are working to rectify the issues. There are challenges to being an affiliate or a merchant and especially a network so being willing to work together is our best chance for success.

      Blogs work a little differently than forums. Here you can just click REPLY under the comment you want to answer and your answer will be put under theirs so you don’t have to quote them. You’ll see what I mean because this comment will be UNDER yours.

        The new affiliate manager for Bridaluxe responded to my tweet warning about them not paying or responding. They also happened to respond to another affiliate I know about the same time – an affiliate who had been trying to reach them for three days who I did NOT mention – so they are contacting affiliates.

        Thank you again for the heads up on this. I’ll keep this post updated with the latest status reports I receive from Bridaluxe and affiliates.

      Hi Susan,

      I was just made aware that Bridaluxe stopped paying their affiliates and on further investigation see that they have changed ownership and are ignoring all attempts to contact them. I wanted you to know so you could take action.

      I am so sorry that you followed my recommendation and this has happened, but these things do happen and are outside our control.

      As an event planner you will want to get your free advertising in local search directory listings. There is information about that in the post I’ll put in CommentLuv in this reply.

      Yes, we recommend ShareASale as our favorite affiliate network because they’ve been highly ethical. I hope they continue to do that because it IS what sets them apart and causes people like me to heavily and consistently recommend them.

    Well, I viewed the website and it looks legit to me. Hmmm, for weddings I think people still consider doing it on their own and finds the best event centers. In Denver, Colorado is where my sister’s wedding is going to be held. We’re inviting numerous guests so it’s important to have a wide event space. Denver is an inspiring place to hold an event like weddings because of the beautiful Roman Catholic Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception located in the city.

      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.

    Thanks for sharing this… It is weird that I have never really thought about doing any sort of affiliate marketing to do with weddings before. Interesting article.

      Hello,

      I would be interested in knowing more about architectural rendering. Anyone interested in architecture would be interested in knowing about Good Millwork’s free downloadable 3D CAD Architectural profiles.

      Just click the download link on any profile page to download approved CAD drawings for use in architectural drawings.

    As a PA Wedding photographer and a NJ Wedding photographer, I find the Bridaluxe to be a great starting service for any photographer looking to get up and running as quick as possible.

    Sorry to be out of the loop for so long……missed this article.
    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.

      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 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.

    Interesting. I had not heard of Bradaluxe before. I’ll definitely have to consider it in the future, although I imagine it is predominately an American site.

      Thank you for sharing this post with her. I’m not sure how the trademark symbol might affect your search engine rankings so you may want to use this format when commenting here:

      Web Your Name® @ Web Your Name

      That will link the phrase without the trademark symbol.

    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!

      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.

      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!

      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.
