Membership
Interested in joining our organization? Have you attended one or two of our meetings? We invite you (and your business partner(s), if applicable) to attend at least one meeting (see link below) where you'll meet wedding professionals just like you. Not only is it a night to just get out of the house, but you also take away a little nugget of information to apply to your business right away. What you will find within our group is that each member of WED'NI is committed to honest, professional, ethical, and responsible behavior. We pledge, as individual companies, to service each client and/or couple(s) to the best of our ability in the areas of our particular skill or expertise.
As a group, we are committed to helping each other in every way possible to make each wedding or special event a personal, wonderful, joyous, and problem-free experience for all the brides, grooms, and clients we serve.
As vendors, we are committed to supporting fellow vendors and venues by sharing professional information, networking, promoting, and referring fellow vendors to prospective brides and grooms in the North Idaho and Eastern Washington area.
WED'NI’s goal is to aid in the growth and development of its members and to promote professional and ethical business practices while giving back to our local communities through the use of our combined resources.
