we share your values
At the core of our work is a desire to create a greater good in the world through celebrations and our every day actions.
For Together Events, this shows up as prioritizing work with clients whose values and vendors whose values (and practices) align with our vision for an equitable and inclusive future for all.
These values are ones that we do our best to bring into our lives fully - both personally and professionally - and include:
Better Than Before
We believe there is an opportunity to leave every interaction better than before. By creatively rethinking the status quo, sourcing vendors thoughtfully, and integrating a set of sustainability-and-inclusion-focused best practices into our work, we carve our own path in a way that’s less wasteful and more equitable than the paths we have forged before.
No event is zero waste, but we take a harm reduction approach to every event we plan.
All Are Welcome Here
We believe magic and meaning are made around a table—and there’s room for everyone at our table. We do not discriminate on the basis of sex, creed, race, religion or identity. Further, we actively vocalize our opposition to systems of oppression, racism, colonialism, and sexism, reinvesting in mechanisms working toward liberation and communities that are acutely impacted by environmental racism and climate change.
We believe, always, that Black Lives Matter and that All Love is Love and that all people deserve dignity and care, not in spite of, but because of the identities they hold. We strive to make those beliefs felt and known in everything we do.
Unique By Design
We leverage our unique professional and lived experiences to craft creative, personalized, and intentional weddings for every partnership. By working with celebrants to identify and further the core purpose of their event in every aspect of our planning, we co-create meaningful, joyful celebrations for them and their guests.
Our goal is to make sure every guest feels seen, heard, and celebrated whether they’re the marrier or the onsite support staff.
With Joy, Always
Fun, joy, and playfulness are at the center of our work. From defining those surprise-and-delight moments that make your event unforgettable, to building you a picture perfect spreadsheet, we find the fun in every interaction.
We uphold our
committments
We are committed to deconstructing and working against racist and white supremacist systems in our personal and professional praxis. This includes regularly attending workshops and learning sessions focused on antiracism and deconstructing white supremacy. We also maintain a relationship with an external Coach to support our growth and work.
If we ever say or do something that upsets you, please let us know! We promise to make a deep investment in our working relationship with you and make every effort to fix it. For concerns related to equity and antiracist practice, please email accountability@greatergoodevents.co and we will bring these items to our external Coach to process.
