Spelling Bee

I’ve noticed that different people spell weddingbee in different ways.
I tend to spell it “weddingbee” - all lower case.
Mr. Bee goes off how it looks in the logo: “Weddingbee”, with a capital W.
And I’ve seen a lot of people spell it as two words: “Wedding Bee”.
We should probably standardize on something!
Feel free to explain your logic in the comments!

i definitely see it as one word….it doesn’t matter to me whether it’s with a capital “w” or not….two words is awkward looking
I think I interchange because I was never sure what it was supposed to be- so I just followed how everyone else was typing it!
However, most often I use: “Weddingbee”
Because that’s how it looks in the logo. 
lowercase because of the url..
Same with Missy Jenn, here. I use it all as one word, but sometimes capitalize it. Of course, I usually just say “WB” when I talk to someone in the “know”.
I think I probably spell it differently every single time I write the word…but I kind of like the all lower case.
I would have to say all lower case. Its easier to type out.
who cares?
I feel that Weddingbee is a proper noun and so it should be capitalized. And it definitely should be one word: Weddingbee is the entity which houses wedding bees (see the distinction?) so I feel that splitting it into two words would be misleading since there is more than one bee in the hive. Just my two cents.
hahaha….I’ve never noticed that before. I guess I just treat it as two seperate words since in every day use they would be. (Nevermind the great big header! )
I type it as all lowercase, one word. I like how it looks..but was never sure if it was proper or not!
i spell it WeddingBee. go figure…
As an MBA student in a brand management class, I now look at things from a consumer point of mind. Because this is a website-based business, “weddingbee” makes it consistent with the URL and reminds people where to go to access the product. With that in mind I would also recommend changing the logo to “weddingbee” for uniformity.
I think it’s great that you’re considering standardization! All great brands are standard in their logo (think Coca-Cola).
How about WeddingBee?
Weddingbee — because it’s a proper name … but sometimes i do weddingbee b/c i am lazy and like things in all lowercase…
I don’t understand the logic of spelling it all lowercase because that’s how it’s spelled in the URL. Every company that has a website spells its name in all lowercase in the website URL, so Shirls I don’t think that has anything to do with brand management (though you have a good point about standardization). Just because Starbucks’ name is starbucks in the URL, that does not mean you don’t capitalize the name when referring to it as a company in writing. The URL is not your company name, it’s an address. A company name is just that: a name. It’s a proper noun and therefore should be capitalized.
As such, I refer to it as Weddingbee!
Sorry for the slight rant. Improper grammar is a major pet peeve of mine.
Weddingbee. Because that’s what it says on the logo.
Hi smartl, I definitely hear you about improper grammar (I hate it too!), and my point is not to advocate poor grammar but sending a message with the brand/logo.
In any case, it was just my two cents. I leave the decision to the wise Mrs. Bee
All great things are capitalized! 
Plus, I think it adds a bit more credibility and the feeling of establishment (although i type in all lowercase so much I’m somewhat of a hypocrite). But still!
wow! In my mind I thought the correct spelling was WeddingBee. now i’m completely confused. but from thsoe choices i like your spelling the best, Mrs. Bee
