Case Study: Carver Coordination — SEO & Website Visibility for a Luxury Wedding Planner

From Word-of-Mouth to Organic Growth: Turning a High-Touch Business Into a Search-Friendly Brand

The Challenge

MINA'S FOCUS -

Carver Coordination is a luxury wedding and event planning company based in Colorado, known for creating elevated, unforgettable experiences. When they came to The Mina Company, their client base was growing through referrals — but their digital presence wasn’t keeping up. Over the course of a year, we helped improve visibility, increase organic traffic, and drive consistent discovery call bookings through SEO strategy, site updates, and data-backed optimization.

The Challenge: Carver Coordination had a stunning brand and a stellar reputation, but they weren’t showing up in search results for local event planning services. With most of their traffic coming from direct or referral sources, they were missing out on top-of-funnel discovery. Our goal was to help them gain traction in organic search, improve website performance, and optimize content to drive qualified leads year-round — even in the off-season.

Our Strategy

We built a targeted SEO plan designed to boost search visibility and support consistent booking inquiries:

  • Ongoing SEO maintenance (image optimization, metadata, heading structure, internal linking)

  • Optimization of blog content + homepage structure for clarity and keywords

  • Monthly performance tracking and keyword movement monitoring

  • Bounce rate reduction through site clean-up and engagement improvements

  • Identification of high-traffic blog opportunities and content planning recommendations

THE IMPACT: With a clear SEO strategy and a consistent rise in organic visibility, Carver Coordination now receives qualified inquiries through search — not just word of mouth. Their bounce rate is low, blog content is working harder, and they’ve built a steady rhythm for long-term lead generation.

The Results

Website Performance &
 Discovery Calls

  • Website averaged 150–275 monthly visitors 

  • Monthly discovery call bookings ranged from 7–15+, with peaks during peak wedding season

  • Bounce rate dropped to as low as 10.05% by December, with site engagement steadily improving

  • Overall search visibility improved, with major jumps in tracked keyword positions

SEO Growth & Organic Content:

  • Top-performing keyword: Fort Collins wedding planner

  • Organic search consistently became the #2 traffic source, surpassing social

  • Specific blog posts contributed to increased traffic and time-on-site

  • Organic visitors increased month-over-month, especially during seasonal campaigns

  • Search visibility improved by +268% in October (📈 huge boost from targeted keyword updates)

Why Does SEO Matter for Wedding Planners?

Because clients are searching before they’re ready to call.
Even if you get strong referrals, showing up in Google builds trust, increases brand recognition, and turns website visitors into paying clients. We help wedding planners and service-based brands use SEO, content strategy, and small tweaks to make a big impact.

Every week, AI builds my team’s agenda. And I don’t even have to ask. A message goes out in Slack, AI pulls our team’s time and our signed proposals, and it hands back what we’re focusing on that week. That used to take me 30 to 45 minutes. That’s the difference between a prompt and a system. A prompt helps you once, when you remember to use it. A system keeps working in the background, whether you think about it or not. That’s the kind of AI we build for our clients. Not just help planning a birthday party (I do that too). Real systems that take work off your plate. What would you do with a few hours back each week?

Ep. 9 is out now: The AI Hamster Wheel 🐹 In one day, I turned seven or eight messy spreadsheets into one dashboard my team had been wishing for, then rebuilt our entire onboarding process. Before AI, that never would have happened. And then I caught myself asking, “Okay, what’s next?” In this episode, I’m getting honest about both sides. AI has made our business more organized and capable than it’s ever been, and I’m grateful for it. But when you can fix everything, it’s really hard to know when to stop. I share what’s helping me get off the wheel, like picking two or three projects a month and letting the rest wait. If you’re deep in AI and starting to feel the burnout creep in, this one’s for you.

Honest marketing means telling you what’s working, what isn’t, and when something isn’t worth your money. It also means you’re never stuck with us. Your accounts, your data, and your assets stay yours. If you’re with us, it’s because you want to be, not because you have to be. My husband and I own or part-own nine businesses, so I know what it’s like to trust someone else with something you’ve worked so hard to build. When I make decisions at Mina, I’m not thinking about what grows our bottom line the fastest. I’m thinking about what I’d want if it were my business, my budget, and my name on the line. You deserve a partner who cares as much about your growth as you do. Looking for a marketing partner you can trust? Let's see if we're a good fit.

Ep. 8 is out now: Raising Girls and a Business 🩷 I started The Mina Company while I was pregnant with my youngest, and in those early days I planned client meetings around feeding schedules. Seven and a half years later, my girls are 11 and 7, and the business has grown up right alongside them. In this episode, I’m answering questions my team pulled about motherhood and running a company. I talk about what changed when the baby years ended, how I show up for two kids at very different stages, how being a working mom shaped Mina’s culture, and the leadership lessons I’ve learned from raising two strong girls. That includes the one in this clip: today’s best might look different than tomorrow’s, and that’s okay. If you’re building a business with your kids watching, this one’s for you. Listen wherever you listen to podcasts! #ConversationsInTheDark #RaisingGirls #WorkingMom #MomsInBusiness #WomenInBusiness #FemaleFounder #Motherhood #Leadership #SmallBusinessPodcast

Are you a home builder looking for a marketing team who can make the most of your busy season? You’re not alone. This is the time of year most builders reach out to us. Custom homes are a long, high-trust sale. Buyers want to see your work, get a feel for how you build, and trust you before they ever pick up the phone. At The Mina Company, we help custom home builders and service-based contractors turn thoughtful design, quality work, and local reputation into a powerful marketing presence. That’s what’s behind these numbers. SEO that keeps builders on page one month after month. Websites and ads that turn searches into real inquiries. Social that shows off the craftsmanship before the first call. We do this for residential and commercial builders, here in Colorado and across the country. And we only partner with one builder per area. You’ll never share a strategy with the competitor across town. Ready to see what this could look like for your business?
