Affiliate links
Affiliate links on High Gloss Weddings contain our unique ID. This means companies can see that you found their website on High Gloss Weddings. These companies store a small piece of code for up to 30 days that tells them that you clicked on a High Gloss Weddings affiliate link.
If you buy anything on that site, we get a small percentage of that sale. Whether you complete your purchase immediately or wait a few weeks, we still get a share of the sale as long as it’s within 30 days.
This doesn’t cost you any more. It simply gives us a little more capacity to create quality content.

High Gloss Weddings has links to external sites in our social media and website content. We don’t have any control over external websites. That means we can’t take responsibility for the protection and privacy of any information you share on these sites. The High Gloss Weddings policies don’t extend to the external sites we link to.
