The average price of a wedding is $28,000? That doesn't sound right. I know many do cost that much, but the average?

#32do people really want something like this. I would think investors would want a no hassle, no bs way to review a company. It looked nice, but the experience was no good , compared to a standard ppt deck with notes.
all it's meant to do is start the conversation. i believe this does that very well.

Could be skewing: a small group of couples may spend much more.

#34One accuracy problem with the info...under 'Problems/Solutions':
> Our curated collections save brides up to 100% off retail.
So they give away dresses free? If they mean they cut the price in half, then it's save 50% off retail. That's a pretty common mistake.
Double going up, half coming down.
Edit: Btw, I think this presentation/slide deck is awesome.

While it's possible that Kim Kardashian's 17 Million dollar wedding might be skewing the average, that figure doesn't seem outrageous to me.
Just hiring a wedding photographer can average between 5 and 10 grand (and that's not to hire Annie Leibowitz).
I charge on the low end of that average and I'm "cheap".

It seems from their pitch that they're including the entire cost of the wedding party. So even if the couple isn't paying for the expenses of the wedding party, perhaps that figure adds them in. From personal experience, any kind of normal venue used to hosting weddings that would fit 100+ people in NYC is in the ~$10k range alone before you add anything else in.

#37I'd like to see links to the team members' Twitter and LinkedIn profiles on the team page. :)
Really? Do you believe that founders and other team members would gain followers simply by virtue of being founders and team members?

And keep in mind that figure doesn't cover video, which nowadays for 1080p and editing to a finished BD is another tidy sum.
Re: DressRush Pitch Deck
#39The "Market" slide makes a very effective point. On the "Problems / Solutions" slide: "save ... up to 100% off retail" says absolutely nothing, except perhaps that the author doesn't know how percents work. "save ... up to 100%" means "save somewhere between nothing and everything". On the graph in the "Customer Acquisition" slide, the "reduce customer acquisition cost through SEO" point implies a lower cost to acqui…
Their market slide: http://investors.dressrush.com/#slide4
Their math doesn't compute?
2.7M weddings * (14+152) people per wedding =
445.5 million people * 28k $/wedding =
75.6B $
2.7M weddings * 28k $/wedding = 75.6B $
It certainly looks beautiful, but the information is lacking. Also, 31% conversion rate?!!

#40Is it strange that as potential investor my biggest concern about this deck would be that its for a bridal product with 3 Men and only one woman on the founding team?
Sara & I founded Weddzilla.com (Wedding expertise) and have an advisory team chock-full{edit} of women from the biggest sites in the space. Mike and I founded an earlier company and although he never plans on getting married, is never short on dates = a lot of female insight. Matt...well he's married so he's been through the drill. ;)
N.B. It's chock-full.
