We care about the world. Not just the actual planet itself, but also the people who call it home. In our personal lives, we give to charities and help organizations, and we thought what better than to do that with our business too! And you get to be a part of it!!
“Whatever you do, work at it with ALL your HEART, as for the Lord and not for men,”
Col. 3:23
We've partnered with The Archibald Project, an orphan advocacy organization based in Austin, TX. We have a special place in our hearts for the orphans, as we too were once orphans and now adopted through Christ. This is a small way we can share the love that we have been given.
5% of your wedding package price will go to help these orphans future families find them and bring them home. You can read more about them here...
Every 3 months we rotate another amazing charity into the mix for your wedding. Below we have a list of some organizations that are changing the world for the better. And this quarter our 2nd charity is...
The final 5% of giving is, in our opinion, the most important. We want to share the money with the charity you choose. If your heart aches for the homeless, we'll give to an organization who helps them. If it aches for the those without clean water, we'll give. Or those needing rescue from human trafficking, we'll give where your heart lies.

The Archibald Project
We are using stories to open people’s eyes to new possibilities for their own life. The Archibald Project is using videos, writing, photography, podcasts, and social media to tell inspiring orphan care stories from all over the world. We are then presenting these stories on our different media outlets to an audience of over 100,000 people.
Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the way movements are started. When a movement gains momentum, it makes getting involved seem less risky.
Aggieland Pregnancy Outreach
Our mission is to encourage women to choose life for their babies and to help women make sound parenting decisions. We feel that if we are going to encourage a woman to carry her baby to term, we should also provide any means necessary to help her through her difficult times. This is why support services for birthparents are the heart of APO.
Our ultimate focus is the children. It is our heart’s desire to see that children are raised in loving, nurturing homes. We know that can happen well in both biological families and also adoptive families.
The Key 2 Free
The Key2Free exists to prevent and end sex trafficking through education in our schools, awareness in our local communities, and aftercare solutions for survivors of trafficking and exploitation.
We accomplish this mission by creating a safe, quality environment, providing access to supportive community based services and educating the public and at-risk youth about trafficking.
Together, we devote our lives, skills and resources to bring light to the darkness, and freedom to those who so desperately need it.
Charity water
Charity Water drills wells and provides clean water all around the world.
663 million people live without clean water. That’s nearly 1 in 10 people worldwide, or, twice the population of the United States without access to life’s most basic human need. The majority live in isolated rural areas and spend hours every day walking to collect water for their family.
Not only does walking for water keep kids out of school and take up time that parents could be using to earn money, but the water often carries diseases that make them sick.
Brookwood Community
Brookwood in Georgetown is a very “out of the box” innovative vocational community for adults with special needs where everything we make we sell in a beautiful high end gift shop, cafe and greenhouse.
We want to change the way our world views this population by taking the "status quo” of providing these individuals with custodial care to these individuals creating beautiful, marketable items to sell to help sustain the vocational community they enjoy everyday.
They have become artisans, bakers, gardeners, card makers, jewelry makers, and more.
Mercy project
Mercy Project’s mission is to rescue children from slavery. We partner with families and communities trapped in the cycle of poverty, empowering them with sustainable economic solutions in order to free children from forced labor.
John's boys
We are launching an exciting program designed to increase foster child participation in extracurricular activities and support foster parents as they work to provide a sense of normalcy for these children.
Extracurricular programs are not covered under any other area of the foster system and we believe participation in such activities creates a sense of belonging, instills core values, and develops the child's natural talents and abilities.
The program will include providing scholarships to cover the costs of enrollment, uniforms, and equipment so that these children may participate in activities which they might otherwise not have access to.
Feeding America
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, we are committed to serving communities and individuals facing hunger across America, wherever they are. Every dollar raised from the COVID-19 response fund will be used to get food and funds to local food banks across the U.S.
