الرابطة الوطنية لزواج المثليين (معدات), أ 501(ج)(3) منظمة مهنية غير ربحية, تم انشاءه في 2019 by Ric Simmons after he experienced bigotry and discrimination in Texas while planning his wedding.
في 2015, when same-sex marriage became the law of the land, the wedding industry was not prepared. LGBTQ+ weddings do not necessarily follow established traditions, and wedding planners were caught unaware. Very few wedding vendors across this country rose to the occasion to service LGBTQ+ couples. Still today, only five percent of wedding professionals openly advertise that they do not discriminate against LGBTQ+ couples.
