The Knot has increased their fees so much that I can no longer afford to advertise with them. I have for months been paying in more than the revenue I received for officiating at weddings. (Wedding officiants, such as a Justice of the Peace, as I am, are the lowest-paid wedding professionals. Photographers, videographers, and DJs get paid thousands of dollars per wedding, and wedding officiants are lucky to receive a couple of hundred dollars.) When a couple clicks on a wedding officiant that they want to check out, they are shown additional officiants WHO ARE COMPETITORS in the results!!! We already have enough competition!!! The Knot is failing its advertisers!!! In addition, a lot of the couples who did make an inquiry stopped replying after receiving a quotation for my services; completely ghosted me! I can no longer afford to advertise with The Knot at all. Years ago, it was the best go-to place.
