We're a non-profit organization, operating through volunteer efforts & organized outreach. We use yearly dues to fund large marketing efforts & encourage brides to plan a wedding in our beautiful state. For a minimal yearly fee, members enjoy the benefits listed below. We accept Montana wedding vendors, located on the Continental divide & westward, who will adhere to our code of ethics, and other professional business qualifications.
Networking
Community over competition.
Members tend to refer one another, and we've all helped our businesses grow! We host 2-3 Member Mixers annually. We also collaborate to provide business creativity, fresh outlooks, & group coaching. Get to meet one another outside of the stress of a wedding day, and grow your own networking for referrals & future event needs.
STRENGTH IN NUMBERS
Instead of spending a TON of money on outreach to get that ideal client, spend a little and get a lot! We're a non-profit whose sole purpose is to use your membership dollars to drive potential clients to our website, and therefore, to you! We can all agree that word of mouth works great for in-state, local business. But did you know that (after Vegas & Hawaii) Montana is one of the most popular destination wedding markets in the United States? How do you market to brides all over the US? You use the combined strength of our membership dollars to do it!
Affordable Membership
We know there's other options out there for marketing & Association memberships. Because we started in the Bitterroot Valley, we want to stay true to our small town roots, and keep membership fees as reasonable as possible. We strongly believe in volunteering to keep our organization strong, and to keep dues low. The more affordable we are, the easier it is for fledgling businesses to join. Those more established businesses with more expendable income are encouraged to join many organizations, and have a wider reach!
We believe in community over competition.
