These core values guide our entire business and are non-negotiable.The majority of our clients are members of the LGBTQ+ community; we also serve clients of many racial, cultural, ethnic, and religious backgrounds with a focus on non-traditional and feminist weddings. A firm commitment to unpacking our own biases and providing a welcoming, affirming, and inclusive experience to our clients is paramount.Just as important is that our wedding day team be self-motivated, calm under pressure, and attentive to detail; have a great sense of humor; and be exceptionally committed to doing whatever needs to be done.
