Happy Saturday Guild Members! Today we have an exciting announcement! This year and going forward we have partnered with Emerald Hour to bring you more sustainable and mindfully focused weddings and events.

You already know that planning sustainable events is near and dear to our hearts from our previous posts on wedding sustainability and creating heirloom pieces. Our partnership with Emerald Hour will allow us to elevate that in the coming months and years.

What Emerald Hour Does

Emerald Hour Strives to build an inclusive community of environmentally mindful wedding professionals. They create and share tools and “best practices” to foster more sustainable businesses with the long-term goal of inspiring a cultural shift away from the wedding industries wasteful status quo.

Emerald Hour offers workshops for continuing education and hosts social events for vendors to meet and swap ideas. Like us, they believe we are better together and can grow more effectively when we are in collaboration instead of competition. Emerald Hour also provides a list of carefully vetted vendors with sustainable practices. They also offer a guide if you are planning an event and aren’t sure where to start.

What this Means for the Guild

Up front, this won’t change much for our clients and fellow guild members. Our current services, products, and prices won’t change. Over time, our partnership with Emerald Hour will create room to grow a more knowledgeable team. We’ll have a larger group of trusted vendors we can connect you with. A bigger support network for us, means more support for you as well.

In the coming months, it will also expand what services we are able to offer as well as elevate the level of service we currently provide. A more knowledgeable team on our end means more that we can pass on to you in every aspect of our business.

This is the next exciting step in our promise to our clients, community, and environment to continue to be better today than we were yesterday.
