BOSTON (AP) — A printing company accused of sending discriminatory pamphlets to a gay couple who ordered wedding programs says it rejects discrimination “in all forms.”
Vistaprint’s CEO and founder sent a letter to its customers and partners on Wednesday in response to a federal lawsuit filed by the couple. The lawsuit says the pamphlets received by the couple before their September wedding included messages about temptation and sin.
Vistaprint says it’s “incredibly saddened” by the incident and has reached out to the couple to express its outrage. The Dutch company says it has begun an investigation into the matter and will take “strong action” if it finds that any Vistaprint employee or partner played a role.
Vistaprint says it hopes to use the incident as an “opportunity to shine a light on important LGBTQ issues.”
