Wedding Wire Reviews

Just thought I'd share. I'm not sure if this is common knowledge  but WW reviews are not accurate. My friend who was recently married posted her review on WW it wasn't a horrible review, but honest. Now on the vendor's page it is deleted. I thought it was a site that vendors couldn't "mess with" ?! 

Other than TK boards what is the best website for accurate reviews?

    Weddingchannel.com has some, and sometimes you can find vendors on Yelp.com. A general Google search can sometimes be helpful, too (especially if someone is really great or really awful). I know there's also a wedding message forum on NJ.com where people chat about vendors, but that's nowhere near as active as the Knot so this board might be your best bet.

    That sucks that your friend's honest review was deleted. Some sites do that if the vendor is a paid advertiser or if the vendor complains.

    The Knot is the same way. Unfortunately all wedding sites rely on advertisers for their income, and no vendor is going to advertise on a site that has bad reviews of them.

    I have seen negative reviews on wedding wire. If they are a paying vendor it is put at the bottom of all the reviews.
    They give the vendor an opportunity to defend but it is written so we can see it.
    I find them to be the most accurate so far.

    I had always heard that WW allowed a vendor to delete a review; I didn't know that was the case with TK, too.

    Our board vendor review website is accurate!  We don't have a ton of reviews, but we're working on it!  :-)

    A wedding vendor that I was unhappy with told me that if I posted a review, she would have it deleted from the Knot & Wedding Wire.  I never bothered to post my review because I didn't want to deal with the hassle.  However, I plan to send my reviews to the board vendor review website to Peaches shortly. 

    It's disappointing that paid sponsors are able to control honest reviews on some boards.
