The Lifestyle

Wedded Wonderland offers the opportunity to work with luxury travel destinations, destination weddings, global tourism campaigns, and premium events across locations such as Tuscany, Bali, Santorini, Dubai, and the Maldives.

Team members may receive discounted or complimentary travel opportunities, luxury accommodation experiences, and access to exclusive events and activations.

This role is ideal for someone passionate about luxury content, creative storytelling, and building a strong portfolio within a globally recognised brand.

  • Three examples of content from a luxury or lifestyle brand you've managed, including:
    • The brief
    • Your creative decisions
    • The results or performance
  • Your LinkedIn profile and any relevant portfolio or social media links

Shortlisted candidates will complete a one-way video screening followed by a paid trial session based on a real Wedded Wonderland content brief.

Final decisions are typically made within 48 hours after the trial session.

We hire based on creative judgment, platform expertise, and portfolio quality rather than years of experience alone.
