We've Changed Our Name

When we formed The Network of Bridal Professionals in July 2013; we quickly realised by the response that this was something the UK wedding industry had been crying out for. Through the comments made at the FOCUS meeting we held that same September, it was apparent that something more than just a networking group was wanted. As a result of this momentum and feedback the Network of Bridal Professionals has changed its name to National Association of Wedding Professionals (NAWP). We feel this far better reflects the purpose of the company and is more relevant to those that will be our members.

"For us, the NAWP provides reassurance to our discerning planning clients of our professionalism and integrity within an otherwise completely unregulated industry that can present a minefield for couples. Being a member of the NAWP not only shows our own commitment to being seen as a trusted professional in our field but also shows our commitment to promoting the same expectation of Professionalism and Integrity from the suppliers we engage with. Being part of the NAWP provides us with credibility when dealing with, not just clients, but with other professionals including press requests. The NAWP work hard in the background to promote not only industry membership, but more importantly, what it means to a couple when they select a NAWP member as their preferred supplier."
