In honor of #GivingTuesday, we encourage you to skip your morning coffee and instead donate to the NGWA (we promise, feel-good vibes are equivalent to caffeine!☕️). $10, $25, $100 ... every little bit helps us in our mission to standardize inclusive wedding practices. Donate: https://donorbox.org/ngwa ⁠ The NGWA is a 501c3 nonprofit organization, EIN 84-3305457. ⁠ ⁠ Despite the legalization of same-sex marriage in 2015, discrimination against LGBTQ+ couples continues to this day. In fact, less than 5% of wedding professionals are recognized as inclusive. Our goal at the NGWA is to change that. Inclusive wedding practices begin with education, support, and understanding. ⁠ ⁠ The NGWA Mission: to foster inclusive awareness for wedding professionals through supporting partnerships, continuing education, and community.

At the NGWA, we believe inclusivity means having many different voices at the table. After careful consideration, the NGWA felt it was best to listen to the pulse of the wedding community and we’ve realized that many of those vital voices may not have access to an in-person conference in January due to COVID-19. We’ve decided that coming off of holiday travel, it’s best to pivot our conference to a virtual platform with a reduced ticket price to ensure the safety of all of our attendees and speakers and to make this groundbreaking inaugural conference accessible to all members of our community and beyond. We are thrilled to still be offering our stellar speaker lineup and are excited that these amazing industry leaders will be able to provide inclusive education to even more attendees now that we’ve pivoted to virtual! Priced at just $195, #linkinbio to snag your tickets now! #weddingpro #weddingproconference #lgbtqwedding #lgbtqweddings #inclusiveweddings #gaywedding #inclusivity #inclusivitymatters #lgbtq #lgbtqinclusive #weddingplanner #weddingphotographer
