From This Day Forward is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that is currently 100% volunteer-driven. Founded in June of 2016, we strive to assist individuals and businesses planning any kind of special event who have limited resources, experiencing difficult life circumstances, OR who are looking for more eco-friendly and sustainable options.

Our services include: Garden Rental for intimate events, assisting with event planning, event décor rental, vendor relationships, and our Gown Garden boutique, which has new and gently used formal wear, wedding dresses, accessories, gifts, and thrift items. Scholarship opportunities are available for those struggling to afford a gown.

Looking for a wedding or formal gown?
Having a special event?

Meet Benjamin and Carmen 

“Your ministry helped us a lot for this dream to come true, because we made payments on my dress, I found décor and many other  wedding stuff at the boutique at low prices. But most important, is to not wait until illness comes in to your life. Live your life and try to achieve all of your dreams with God’s help and persistence.”
