Here Come the Brides!


As the saying goes. . .May showers bring June brides. In celebration of "Wedding Season," PHAG is pleased to announce our partnership with Registry 10- The BUY LOCAL gift registry!

How can independently owned businesses survive as they are squeezed tighter and tighter by chain stores and overseas competition? With a little commitment from you, that's it! Approximately 50,000 couples in the Philadelphia area marry each year. By asking guests to buy local, couples funnel money into the local economy and get cool gifts not found on traditional registries.

Registry 10 is a unique partnership with local businesses challenging each couple planning a wedding to add 10 LOCAL gifts to their registry. The average couple receives $10,000 in wedding gifts at an average cost of $100. So this 10-gift challenge could result in a local economic boost of $1,000 per wedding!

Do your part to make a difference today, so your favorite local business will still be around tomorrow. Oh, and while you're at it, be sure and push for equal rights to marry wherever you are!
