Wedding supplier directory

I'm building a diverse wedding directory so showcase talent from all groups across the wedding industry. We all know certain groups are not highly represented in the wedding world but this group of suppliers aims to bring you a real mix of amazing talent.

If you have a diverse wedding supplier recommendation or you're a business that would like to be included please email me at thriftybrideblog@gmail.com

I want people to know that they can find a diverse mix of suppliers by using this directory. Suppliers who care and cater for weddings just like yours. I have included a list of blogs, websites and magazines that are either great allies to communities underrepresented in the wedding industry or that cater for a specific group that is underrepresented in the mainstream wedding media.
