🚨 WIPA Colorado is looking for our next group of leaders! 🚨

If you’ve ever wanted to get more involved in Colorado’s wedding community, build deeper relationships with industry peers, grow your leadership skills, and help shape the future of WIPA Colorado… this is your chance.

Applications for the WIPA Colorado Chapter Board close September 30th!

Serving on the board is so much more than having a title. It’s an opportunity to:
✨ Build meaningful relationships with some of the best wedding professionals in Colorado
✨ Have a voice in the education, events, and experiences our chapter creates
✨ Grow your leadership skills and professional network
✨ Collaborate with talented, passionate people across the wedding industry
✨ Help strengthen and support our local wedding community
✨ Bring your own ideas, strengths, creativity, and perspective to the table

And here’s the important part:
You do NOT need previous board experience to apply.

Maybe you’re incredibly organized. Maybe you love bringing people together. Maybe you’re a marketing brain, an event-planning wizard, a relationship builder, an educator, a numbers person, a big-picture thinker, or simply someone who cares deeply about this industry.

There’s a place for those strengths on the WIPA Colorado board.

We’re looking for thoughtful, dependable, collaborative people who want to contribute, connect, and help create an incredible experience for our members.
If you’ve been waiting for a reason to raise your hand… consider this your sign. 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️

📅 Applications close September 30th.
