We Give Back

let’s get you in the know.

normally, we here at a&bé bridal shop feel pretty dang lucky to spend our days with the coolest brides, surrounded by unique dresses and sharing one of the most special days of your life with you.

in 2017, we decided that in all of that there had to be a way to make a positive impact in the lives of women in our community at large and so Babes on a Mission was born and we started donating a portion of every sale to women-focused organizations.

as of 2025, three of the original BOAM organizations, planned parenthood, girls inc., and loveland foundation have remained, and we’ve added everytown and the trevor project. donating to organizations who uplift women, at-risk youth, and the LGBTQIA+ community is just one step in many we look forward to making as Babes on a Mission who support our local community with our actions and our dollars.

we realize that there is so much happening in the world around us beyond the magical experience of wedding dress shopping. that's why a&bé bridal shop is committed to spreading the love within our community and across the nation by financially supporting organizations that are working relentlessly to make a difference and we know our #aandbabes are too. we love you, babes.

learn about why community means so much to us and our values that drive us here.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

when you officially become an #aandbabe at any location and on any day of the year you will automatically join us in this mission by having a percentage of your gown and accessories sales donated to an amazing organization.

it's that simple. find your dress. spread the love. we're so excited for you to join us as #aandbabes on a mission.

we also encourage those who can and with a heart to do so to make personal donations to these organizations that we so strongly believe in.


we gave over $68,000 through Babes on a Mission in 2024 alone.


Let’s talk about these inspirational ORGANIZATIONS: 

a&bé bridal shop is standing with this group of organizations and we are so excited to give to them throughout the year through a percentage of sales.

 

everytown for gun safety is currently the largest gun violence prevention organization in america. everytown is largely made up of mothers, students, survivors, small businesses, and political leaders who are united in their mission to end gun violence. by banning together, everytown collectively demands action from elected officials and pushes against the gun lobby. with thousands of volunteers nationwide, everytown’s direct impact on gun safety reform has saved countless lives.

the loveland foundation makes it possible for Black women and girls nationally to receive therapy support. their effort to bring opportunity and healing to communities of color, and especially to Black women and girls through fellowships, residency programs, listening tours, and more, contributes to both the empowerment and the liberation of the communities they serve.

girls inc. is dedicated to building a new generation of strong, smart, and bold women leaders in over 350 cities across the united states and canada. in an effort to empower girls to overcome serious barriers, girls inc. delivers life-changing programs and experiences to best equip girls for future success.

serving as the leading suicide prevention and crisis intervention nonprofit organization for LGBTQ+ young people, the trevor project provides vital information, support, and resources to LGBTQ+ youth. through a network of donors, volunteers, and trained counselors, the trevor project is on a mission to end suicide among LGBTQ+ young people.

planned parenthood is the nation’s leading provider and advocate of high-quality, affordable sexual and reproductive health care for all people. by delivering vital reproductive health care, sex education, and information to millions of people worldwide, planned parenthood continues to create equitable access to health care.

 

WE ARE SO PROUD TO BE ON THIS MISSION WITH ALL OF THE BABES THAT MAKE UP THE A&BABE COMMUNITY.
