Couples: What things can you be looking for in how vendors are moving through the world to see if they really are genuinely passionate about working with you and for you and not just doing the bare minimum or rainbow washing?
Vendors: How can you speak authentically both to couples and the general wedding space in a way that genuinely showcases your desire to work with lgbtq+ couples and aren't just...

It's 2025 my dudes, and one thing we are not going to do, is start our year off by continuing to drag our feet on making important changes in our businesses. Being a more inclusive vendor is important and should be treated with urgency as a means of respect. We need to chat about it's important to do better once you know better in a TIMELY manner.

It's almost 2025 so I wanted to create a mini series that will be released in between other longer episodes to break down each part of the wedding day to chat about how you can change it to make it feel less heteronormative and more YOU!
Everything from getting ready to the last minute of the dance floor (or no dance floor, because hey, that's not required ya know!), we will chat about opt...

This election season has weighed heavy on the lgbtq+ community and of course so many others. This episode delves into what that has looked like for us over the past few months and the importance of all of us voting. Thank you to Kayla and Taylor for sharing how they decided to get legally married a little earlier than planned.

Today I speak with Queer Couple Experts, Ash and Dawn Noble who have helped many queer couples with their relationships. We don't often have models of how to navigate things as queer couples- and that's where these two come in!

Think creating a guest list is hard!? Well it IS but then you sprinle some gayness in and it can be an even bigger jumbled mess. This episode is all about the realities of that but also all about giving practical tips that you as a queer couple can use in your planning, or that for those outside of the community, you can take some notes to share with future couples :)
