How We Do
Our collection of affordable bridal dresses is donated to us by real brides. All the products you acquire from us are either pre-owned or pre-made, meaning our dresses are recycled and not produced! Aside from our sustainable line and affordable prices, for every purchase or rental made through our website, 30% of the revenue is given to charities and NGO working towards ending child marriage by giving sustainable education and social services for women.

Create Sustainable Impact
Draw a smile on another bride’s face
Since the launch of our sustainable project, many beautiful women from all around the world believed in our mission and decided to donate their wedding dresses to selected charities.
“When I first discovered this amazing initiative by Esposa Group I was so invested and excited as I didn’t know what to do with my wedding dress. After the wedding, I was worried about my gown because it requires special care and so much space. Even though I had the chance to make a profit out of my dress by renting it or selling it through We Do, I decided to donate it instead after being informed of the NGOs that this bridal community is working with. I encourage every bride to participate in making this world a better place by reducing waste and saying We Do!”
Donate dresses to unemployed brides in Africa
We Do by Esposa is now available at Queen’s Bridal Djibouti, Africa. Queen’s Bridal offers unemployed women or women with low income free wedding dresses. In April 2022, We Do by Esposa gladly donated over 200 dresses to this charity to support brides in need.
Support NGOs
We Do by Esposa has partnered up with Ahlouna NGO, based in Lebanon, to help Lebanese families in need. Ahlouna NGO is now helping around 2,000 families in Lebanon by covering their social, financial, educational and medical needs. We Do by Esposa is contributing by donating wedding dresses to brides-to-be or selling them for a nominal amount, which will be given to families in need.
Aid nurses and doctors during the pandemic
During the pandemic, Esposa Group offered wedding gowns and veils to doctors and nurses who were getting married during Summer 2020 in UAE and Lebanon, as a token of appreciation to all their efforts and dedication through the COVID-19 global pandemic. We Do by Esposa would like to keep on supporting and helping every person dedicating their life in service of the community.
Stop sexual assaults
We Do by Esposa will always be a platform that supports and defends women, encouraging them to believe in themselves and have the strength to say no to sexual assaults. In collaboration with Abaad, Esposa launched a project supporting women who were sexually assaulted by sharing their experiences and telling their stories out loud. To portray this message in a beautiful and powerful way, each of these women wrote a personal story or message on a butterfly. All these butterflies were later duplicated to create 12,000 butterflies that filled the boutique in Beirut.
Support women in the workplace
A mission to empower women, Esposa Group launched its schooling couture academy “Esposa Academy” in 2018. After completing 120 hours of training over 3 months, 10 women get certified each session. This academy aims to support and empower women, which is one of the main goals of We Do by Esposa.
End child marriage
In collaboration with Abaad, Esposa participated at Beirut International Marathon to put an end to early and forced marriages in Lebanon, with the support of UNICEF and OXFAM. On 9 November 2014, Esposa team along other influential Lebanese women took to the streets of Beirut wearing wedding gowns and raising powerful messages on child marriage. We Do by Esposa now dedicates its efforts toward charities aiming to put an end to child marriage.
We Do by Esposa is more than just a bridal store, it’s an initiative aiming to give back to the community by spreading awareness and donating to charities with great causes, making the world more sustainable and safe for women and children.
There are multiple ways you can partake and join this community if you wish to help. If you’re looking for a wedding dress or you have one in your closet, you can choose to restyle it, or rent it out by becoming a supplier. You can also help put a smile on a bride in need’s face by donating your dress to our different charities. By supporting this initiative, you will help make this world a better place!
