Unicorn Utility

Bodas.net is a verified market leader in the wedding industry across 12 countries, with a significant team (750 employees) and a history of major success (acquired by WeddingWire/The Knot Worldwide). While the submission text itself was lazy (e.g., claiming 'everyone' as the audience), the project's real-world utility, massive reach, and verifiable traction (exit value >$50M, millions of users) drive a very high score. It far exceeds the benchmark for established tech brands.

Description
We are hopeless romantics that help happy couples plan their wedding. A unique, once-in-a-lifetime day to enjoy with family and friends that takes many hours of preparations and work. We all need advice when we plan something so important, and even more if it is our first time. After having seen the new opportunities offered by the world of the Internet and how they could help simplify, speed up and enhance this important process, we created Bodas.net in 2007. Since then, we have shared experiences with many brides and grooms, we have learned from them and enjoyed wonderful stories. Besides, we have also worked with thousands of businesses and grown with them. Now we are the market leaders on 12 different countries: Spain (www.bodas.net) Italy (www.matrimonio.com) France (www.mariages.net) Portugal (www.casamentos.pt) United Kingdom (www.weddingspot.co.uk) Brasil (www.casamentos.com.br) Mexico (www.bodas.com.mx) Argentina (www.casamientos.com.ar) Chile (www.matrimonios.cl) Peru (www.matrimonio.com.pe) Uruguay (www.casamiento.com.uy) Colombia (www.matrimonio.com.co) The journey we started back in 2007 has only just begun. We love weddings and we want to keep sharing with you all the happiness and joy of these magical days for the many years to come.
