Let’s make weddings
better together

Join us in making a sustainable wedding industry.

Are you looking to join a community of like-minded wedding vendors on Vancouver Island who are making this industry a better place?

Well, you’re in the right place!

Sustainably Wed is a group of vendors who are united by a commitment to preserve and protect the natural environment while also making the Vancouver Island wedding industry a stronger, more resilient community. Our vision is to create a local wedding industry that is a global model of sustainability, innovation, and intention. Together, we believe that we can take action against climate change while also creating amazing, meaningful, and beautiful weddings, events, and celebrations.

Membership is open to Vancouver Island-based wedding vendors or vendors in surrounding areas, including the Gulf Islands. You can be a solopreneur who works in the wedding industry on the weekends, or you can be a large company with lots of employees who work on hundreds of weddings a season. What unites us is our commitment to making the wedding industry a better place! Membership includes access to the Sustainable Vendors Directory, access to virtual and in-person events, and access to an online community of like-minded vendors. Membership fees help us support and maintain this community so that we can continue to create resources, offer support, host events, and advocate for our industry.
