COMPANY STORY & MISSION Founded in 2010 by three passionate entrepreneurs, Forever Bride was created because the wedding industry was in the middle of a massive shift. Over a decade earlier, the internet had changed the way brides planned weddings, but the digital space became quickly saturated ads, pop-ups, and annoying features that removed the very thing brides wanted in the first place: connection with the people who would help to create the wedding of her dreams. When Forever Bride started, it quickly gained popularity online because of the philosophy of inspiration first. “We believe in empowering brides to find what they are looking for. And we are giving that to them” says Ashley Hawks, Co-Founder and partner of Forever Bride. "Our mission is to empower a meaningful relationship based on trust, starting with great ongoing education and community for vendors. This isn't just a website full of ads. It's a real experience with real people who care about the couple". #foreverbride
