The Nuptial Essentials Association of Wedding Professionals (NEAWP) provides networking, resources and support for Professional Wedding Consultants. We also offer continuing education for experienced consultants through Nuptial Essentials Curriculum & Education (NECI).
A majority of Professional Wedding Consultants are small business owners who do not have business or professional support available to them.
