Expanding Your Growth in Inclusivity

Many vendors have already added some pictures to their website or add a few affirming sentences to be more inclusive.

Selection of Speakers

We have tried to curate speakers based on their individual expertise that can best effect positive change and provide takeaways in a one-day conference, factoring in their experience with serving and educating wedding business clients like you, understanding how to market to niches, and understanding demographics, geographic area differences, rather than focusing on filling a diversity quota.
