Whether you come for healing, confidence, purpose, visibility, or impact… you leave with all of it.
Women don’t enter this pageant because they’re chasing a title — they enter because they’re ready for a life-changing experience.
Some arrive with thriving careers, strong platforms, and a clear sense of who they are. Others come in after a season of transition, healing, or rediscovering themselves. Many are somewhere in between.
But every woman who steps into this pageant shares one conviction:
she’s ready to grow.
For some, this means stepping on stage for the first time and proving to themselves that they CAN.
For others, it means elevating a mission they deeply care about and giving their story a broader purpose.
And for many, it’s about finally putting themselves in a room filled with women who believe in service, community, courage, and becoming the best version of themselves.
This is the rare kind of experience that meets you exactly where you are — and lifts you higher.
It’s for the woman who wants to rise after trauma.
For the woman who wants to refine her confidence.
For the woman who wants to show her children what strength looks like.
For the woman who wants to deepen her faith.
For the woman who wants sisterhood she’s never experienced before.
For the woman who wants to stand on a stage and know she earned that moment with every part of her journey.
Because this pageant isn’t just about how you walk…
it’s about how you evolve.
It’s the growth that happens during the preparation.
The breakthroughs during interview practice.
The friendships that feel like you’ve known each other for years.
The inner strength you didn’t realize you had until you look back and see how far you’ve come.
Women come here to heal, to rise, to challenge themselves, to be seen, to make impact, to reconnect with joy, and to celebrate the woman they’re becoming.
Some will go home with a crown.
But every woman leaves with something far more valuable:
a deeper, stronger, more confident version of herself — and a community that walks with her long after the pageant ends.
If something inside you is ready for that kind of growth…
your moment begins with one decision — apply.
Apply now and begin the experience that will stay with you long after the competition.

A Crown With Purpose.

For more than 36 years, the Mrs. International® system has been recognized as one of the most respected married-women pageant systems in the world. Established in 1988 with a commitment to higher standards, it was created to uplift married women who want to use their voices, platforms, and leadership to create meaningful impact. The system showcases women ages 21 to 56 who have been married at least six months and are either residents of their state or citizens of the country they represent.
Mrs. International® is designed with purpose at the center. Each contestant selects a personal platform that she spends the year promoting, allowing her to champion a cause she believes in. The scoring structure reflects this commitment to depth and substance. Interview accounts for 50 percent of the overall score, highlighting a woman's passion, advocacy, and ability to communicate her mission. Evening Gown and Fitness Wear each account for 25 percent, celebrating confidence, discipline, and poise.
Husbands play a meaningful role in the experience as they escort their wives during the Evening Gown competition, symbolizing partnership and support. The husband also participates in the crowning moment. Together, these elements create a system built on integrity, service, family, and community leadership, giving married women a platform where purpose and presence work hand in hand.
Amanda Mawer is the State Director of the Florida International Pageant, where she leads with heart, excellence, and a deep commitment to elevating women’s voices. She didn’t grow up in pageantry, and never imagined herself in this world, yet her first-ever competition took her all the way to Top 5 on the international stage. That experience opened her eyes to how powerful pageantry can be when it is built on purpose, integrity, and genuine sisterhood, and it is what inspired her to step into leadership.
As a survivor of sexual assault, Amanda uses her platform to advocate for women healing from trauma and to create supportive, empowering environments where every delegate feels seen, valued, and safe. She partners closely with Love Inspiring Life, an anti-trafficking and rescue organization, and is passionate about using her visibility to amplify the voices of survivors and encourage women to rise stronger than their stories.
Before becoming a director, Amanda worked as a Neuro ICU nurse, traveled the world as a digital nomad with her husband, and eventually stepped into entrepreneurship. Today, her life blends femininity, leadership, and advocacy as she attends high-profile events alongside her husband, TV host and entrepreneur Rudy Mawer, and brings elevated visibility to the International Pageant system.
Amanda’s mission as State Director is to redefine what it means to wear a crown. Not perfection, not popularity, but purpose. She believes every woman has a story that matters, a voice worth hearing, and a strength the world deserves to see, and she is committed to helping her delegates rise with confidence, courage, and grace.

No. Most of our delegates are first-time contestants. The Mrs. International® system was created for real women with real stories, not pageant professionals. You will receive guidance, resources, and support every step of the way.
Absolutely. There is no one look, height, age, or personality that defines a Mrs. International® woman. If you are passionate about your family, your community, and a cause you care about, you belong here. This experience is about purpose, confidence, leadership, and growth.
Many women come into the system without a clearly defined platform. During your onboarding, you’ll receive support, guidance, and clarity so you can choose a mission that feels meaningful and aligned with your heart and your story.
Your delegate fee includes your official regional title, your embroidered sash and crown, a full year of appearances and representation, your complimentary full-page program book ad (exclusive to Florida), your official orientation and onboarding, eligibility for all awards, and access to the full state-level competition weekend.
You can expect flexible, manageable preparation. Most delegates balance this experience with careers, families, and full schedules. You’ll receive a clear preparation outline and timeline designed to support your growth without overwhelming your life.
Your $497 deposit secures your regional title and spot in the competition. The remaining balance can be split into two monthly payments of $300, making the process simple and stress-free.
Yes. As long as the title is available and accurately represents your location or community ties, you may request your preferred title during your application.
Yes. You may submit a placeholder photo now and update it once you have your final professional headshot. Many delegates do this so they can secure their title early and finalize photos later.
You’ll receive a welcome email, your official delegate agreement, your onboarding packet, and clear next steps. From there, you’ll be guided through everything you need to prepare for your year as a Florida International delegate.
That’s completely normal. Many delegates step into this experience to build confidence and challenge themselves. You’ll receive guidance, optional coaching recommendations, and supportive preparation resources designed to help you feel polished, prepared, and powerful.
A coach is optional. Some delegates choose to work with one, while many do not. The Mrs. International® scoring is highly focused on interview, purpose, and your platform, not on technical pageant training. You will receive guidance on how to prepare whether you choose to hire a coach or not.
Absolutely. Every woman leaves this system with something valuable: confidence, visibility, purpose, lifelong friendships, personal growth, and a year of meaningful impact through her platform. Winning is one moment. The transformation and community you gain last far beyond pageant weekend.
You don’t need experience to step into leadership. You only need the courage to say yes.
Your title. Your purpose. Your year of impact.
Titles are assigned on a first-come, first-serve basis.
