Our History & Ethos

Our original brand, Guides for Brides, launched in 1995 as printed wedding guides to help couples find their wedding suppliers. Weddings have evolved since then, with the introduction of civil weddings, then civil partnerships and same-sex marriage. During that time the internet launched, choice increased and in turn became overwhelming.

Guides for Brides remains at the centre of our brand and our series of websites enables couples to navigate the overload of online information.

Pride In Our Mission

Pride Guide is an online resource dedicated to LGBTQ+ weddings and the businesses and suppliers who are loved and trusted in the community. Nothing speaks louder than a recommendation from a friend, and here at GfB we wanted to create an online space where this word of mouth could travel a little further.

Real wedding experiences, testimonials and those delivering truly excellent service to gay and LGBTQ+ couples, in one dedicated site.

I couldn't be more excited for the launch of Pride Guide, a website devoted to wedding planning, advice and resources for LGBTQ+ couples getting married! Finally a place where we can feel comfortable and supported in the wedding planning process by vendors who are committed to marriage equality and who are excited to work with us! While a gay wedding is a wedding, having a place to go where all vendors are excited to work with you alleviates the unnecessary stress of worrying if your love will be accepted by a vendor, and lets LGBTQ+ couple focus on the fun and love of wedding planning, not the worry of rejection and hate!
