Join Our Team!
At WeddingWire, we help brides find the best vendors for their special day; we also help employees find the best place to work for their careers.
With a strong entrepreneurial spirit, we take pride in giving opportunities to seasoned professionals and recent graduates alike.
Our weekly sales meetings and bi-weekly all hands meetings
provide educational opportunities where new insights are discovered and knowledge is shared.
Your success is our success and that is good for everyone.
Since we know that all work and no play make Jack a dull boy, we
incorporate fun and games into our everyday routine.
Wait; there really is little routine when it comes to the work day here.
Employees have the ability to shape their day from their work schedule to their attire, giving them the freedom to do their job well.
We left the stuffy ties and uncomfortable shoes on the dance floor and don't dictate what you can and cannot wear to work.
Foosball in a tie can be a risky proposition anyway and we would discourage
ping-pong in stilettos as well.
The game room is always open and our common area is a great place to get together to have lunch, enjoy a complimentary refreshment, or just hang out for a while.
Since we have a common area, we use it for various activities including parties, wine tastings, quiz night, etc.
Do you like food? So do we! Which is why
we cater breakfast in the mornings for our employees.
In addition to these everyday benefits, we also have the
traditional suite of benefits that employees are interested in having to stay healthy and plan for retirement including Health and Dental Insurance options, an Employee Assistance Program, and a 401(k) plan.
Vacations are also important and we want you to have a life so our vacation policy is simple:
take what you need.
The concept allows for life to happen and as long as you get your work done, you can take what ever time you need, when you need it.
We know that commuting inside the Beltway can be a drain on your sanity and your wallet so
WeddingWire assists all DC Area commuters by providing a monthly reimbursement to offset the cost of transportation.
Since we do care about the environment and want to encourage the use of public transportation, we participate in WMATA's SmartBenefits program.
Speaking of the environment; WeddingWire's GreenDeeds program keeps employees aware of our
responsibility to conserve.
We stock our kitchen with compostable plastic ware along with reusable flatware, glasses, and mugs.
Couple that with our recycling program and motion sensor light switches, we are "do gooders" and aren't afraid to say it!
WeddingWire is based in Washington, DC (Bethesda, Maryland, to be exact).
