With the rise of legalized same sex marriages, services like EnGAYged offer couples the chance to use a wedding directory specific to their needs. The EnGAYged directory caters to the LGBT community by offering them a place where they can search for wedding planners, tips, events and information.
Rather than following a traditional wedding directory format, EnGAYged operates more so as a social forum for anyone in the LGBT community to participate in. The site offers a wide variety of links to photographers, venues and services with the site's guarantee that "every wedding vendor on this website has been personally interviewed by the owners of EnGAYged Weddings, and each wedding business is guaranteed to be either LGBT friendly, operated or owned." This is a great platform for same sex couples to use to plan their nuptials.
