Effortless Organisation: Vik’s Journey a to Stress-Free Bridal Business with Creative Freedom
About Vik’s Bridal

She’s known for creating beautiful Hollywood Waves and boho styles, and her work has even been featured in Hello Magazine. Specialising in weddings, she thrives on making brides feel confident and elegant on their big day.
Challenges Before Creative Freedom
Before Creative Freedom, Vik found it challenging to keep track of enquiries, especially after wedding shows when her inbox flooded with new leads for her business, Vik’s Bridal. “I used to struggle to keep on top of enquiries, especially after wedding shows. Keeping contact with clients in one place was hard work!” Managing multiple platforms for communication, payments, and schedules felt scattered and overwhelming.
Why Creative Freedom?
Vik first heard about Creative Freedom from a friend who raved about the platform. After meeting Lisa Alger at the Gather & Grow event, she knew she needed to give it a try. “The Wedding morning scheduler is by far my favourite part! I have so much good feedback from brides saying how good it is.”
What have been the benefits and impact?
With Creative Freedom, Vik’s business has transformed. “I can add mileage and send quotes out within seconds from anywhere in the world - it’s just incredible! The fast turnaround has led to bookings being secured very quickly. I have had a few brides mention the reason they went ahead with me is because of the seamless software I use.” Brides also appreciate the seamless process, with everything from scheduling to payments in one place. “I’ve had fewer emails from brides asking for final balances or timetables because they can access everything themselves quickly and easily.”
How has Creative Freedom helped your business?
Vik used to dread creating schedules, waiting until the wedding month to complete them. Now, she goes through the schedule during the bride’s preview, which has streamlined the process. “Now we can discuss the timings together, and I make it live for them to view and share with their bridesmaids. It’s saved me so much time and stress.”
