Wedding Vendor Scraper — The Knot + WeddingWire + Wedding Spot + Zola

Scrape wedding vendor profiles from The Knot, WeddingWire, Wedding Spot and Zola in a single run. Returns vendor name, contact info, social handles, ratings, awards, price range, and capacity — across all four directories, in one flat schema.

Wedding Vendor Aggregator Features

• Crawls The Knot, WeddingWire, Wedding Spot and Zola in one pass. Same input, same output schema. Deduping is on you.
• Adds Zola vendors in every category — venues, photographers, planners, florists and the rest — with phone, website, social links, rating, review count, price band and venue capacity. Zola does not publish vendor email.
• Pulls vendor email and website from The Knot profiles where the vendor has chosen to expose them. WeddingWire records carry the vendor website where one is listed; WeddingWire keeps email behind a contact form, so email stays blank for WW records.
• Adds Wedding Spot venues with phone, website, full price band and maximum guest count, plus catering policy, alcohol policy and time restrictions as tags. Wedding Spot has no reviews, so rating and review_count are null there.
• Captures social handles from both platforms — Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, X, YouTube — pulled out of structured profile data, not screenshot OCR.
• Extracts awards (Best of Weddings years, Hall of Fame, Couples' Choice) as a clean array of human-readable strings.
• Returns ratings, review count, price range, and venue capacity for every record. Vendor description is included as the marketing bio.
• Mix Knot category URLs, WeddingWire category URLs, Wedding Spot city or state URLs and Zola vendor search URLs freely in searchUrls. The scraper picks the right path per host.

Who Uses Wedding Vendor Data?

• Wedding-industry SaaS — feed Honeybook / Dubsado / Aisle Planner outreach with verified vendor contacts and category context.
• Photo & video delivery platforms — pull photographers and videographers by city, then route into onboarding sequences.
• Insurance and payments brokers — score vendor categories by rating and review volume to size the addressable market before outreach.
• Market research — count vendors per category per region, or compare price-tier mix across cities. Numbers, not vibes.
• Agency lead-gen — build city-by-category prospect lists with social handles already attached, so the cold-DM step is one less manual step.

How Wedding Vendor Aggregator Works

1. Pick category or city URLs from The Knot, WeddingWire, Wedding Spot, Zola, or any mix. Drop them into searchUrls. For Zola, pick a category and a location on the vendor marketplace and copy the search URL (https://www.zola.com/wedding-vendors/search/...).
2. The scraper paginates each search URL up to maxPagesPerSearch, harvests vendor profile links, and fetches each profile.
3. The Knot path parses the inline vendor JSON the site embeds in its SSR HTML (full contact data). The WeddingWire path parses Schema.org LocalBusiness JSON-LD plus the social-link block. The Wedding Spot path reads the venue data embedded in each venue page. The Zola path reads the same search your URL shows, page by page, and adds each vendor's contact details.
4. Records are flushed to the dataset as they come in. The run stops when maxItems is reached.

Input

{
  "searchUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.theknot.com/marketplace/wedding-photographers-austin-tx" },
    { "url": "https://www.weddingwire.com/c/tx-texas/austin/wedding-photographers/615-10-rca.html" }
  ],
  "platforms": ["theknot", "weddingwire"],
  "maxItems": 100,
  "maxPagesPerSearch": 3
}

Field	Type	Default	Description
searchUrls	array	required	Category or city pages on The Knot, WeddingWire, Wedding Spot or Zola. Mix freely — the scraper detects the platform from the host.
maxItems	integer	15	Cap on total records returned across all search URLs.
maxPagesPerSearch	integer	5	How many paginated pages to fetch per search URL. The Knot is ~30 vendors per page; WeddingWire is ~24 (first page ~54); Wedding Spot is 36; Zola is 30.
platforms	array	["theknot", "weddingwire", "weddingspot", "zola"]	Filter which platforms to keep. Useful when a search list mixes platforms and you only want some.

The Knot only

{
  "searchUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.theknot.com/marketplace/florists-nashville-tn" }
  ],
  "platforms": ["theknot"],
  "maxItems": 200,
  "maxPagesPerSearch": 7
}

WeddingWire only

{
  "searchUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.weddingwire.com/c/ca-california/los-angeles-county/wedding-djs/803-7-rca.html" }
  ],
  "platforms": ["weddingwire"],
  "maxItems": 100,
  "maxPagesPerSearch": 5
}

Wedding Spot only

{
  "searchUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.wedding-spot.com/wedding-venues/georgia/atlanta/" }
  ],
  "platforms": ["weddingspot"],
  "maxItems": 150,
  "maxPagesPerSearch": 5
}

Zola only

{
  "searchUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.zola.com/wedding-vendors/search/austin-tx--wedding-photographers" }
  ],
  "platforms": ["zola"],
  "maxItems": 150,
  "maxPagesPerSearch": 5
}

Use the Zola search URL (/wedding-vendors/search/...). Zola serves at most 10,000 vendors for any one search; a nationwide category search larger than that is read state by state so nothing is cut off, and the run log says so.

FAQ

How do I scrape The Knot and WeddingWire vendor data?

Wedding Vendor Aggregator does both at once. Drop your category or city URLs from either site into searchUrls and the scraper paginates them, pulls every vendor profile, and writes flat records to the dataset. No code, no separate runs.

How much does Wedding Vendor Aggregator cost to run?

Wedding Vendor Aggregator runs on Apify's pay-per-event model — a small fixed start fee plus a tiny per-record fee. 100 records is roughly $0.20. 1,000 records is roughly $1.10. You only pay for records we actually deliver.

Can I get vendor email addresses?

Wedding Vendor Aggregator returns vendor email when it's publicly exposed on The Knot, which is most paid-tier listings. WeddingWire intentionally gates email behind a contact form to capture leads on its own platform, so WW records will have a blank email field. website is returned for both platforms wherever the vendor lists one.

Does it cover all 50 states or just one city?

Wedding Vendor Aggregator scrapes whatever search URLs you give it. The Knot has city-and-category index pages for every major US metro (e.g. wedding-photographers-austin-tx); WeddingWire uses region IDs in its URLs. To cover the country, add one URL per metro per category. There's no built-in nationwide crawl by design — that turns into millions of requests fast.

Why are awards labeled "BOW2025" sometimes in raw data?

Wedding Vendor Aggregator decodes The Knot's award codes for you. BOW2025 becomes Best of Weddings 2025, HOF becomes Hall of Fame. The output is human-readable. Unknown codes pass through verbatim so nothing gets silently dropped.

Why Use Wedding Vendor Aggregator?

• Four directories, one schema — most competing actors target only The Knot or only WeddingWire. This one normalizes The Knot, WeddingWire, Wedding Spot and Zola into a single flat record set so you don't have to merge later.
• Real contact data where it exists — pulls email and website directly from The Knot's embedded vendor JSON, which is more than card-only scrapers do, and labels the WeddingWire email gap honestly instead of returning empty profiles.
• Pay per record — ~$0.001 per vendor, fixed start fee. Nothing to subscribe to and no minimum commitment.
