Queerly Beloved is Shifting from its current name to "Queerly in Love" Conversations on all things LGBTQ+ love, community and identity"

How is everyone holding up? This week we check in about all that's happening, learn about the lesbian flag and have a little bit of an uncomfortable conversation on something I get a little firey about. Specifically: the way some straight vendors get excited about photographing queer weddings not because they care about our community, but because it makes them look cool, inclusive, or “good.”
today we’re diving into a topic that’s not always comfortable but so important: confronting problematic vendors.
Whether you're a couple planning your wedding or a vendor working in the industry, you’ve probably witnessed or experienced something that made you think, “Yikes… what do I do here?”
We’re talking everything from microaggressions to “wow… that REALLY like REALLY should have been an inside ...
Trying to figure out what you want to wear on your wedding/ elopement day can feel overwhelming for some- dress? pants? neither? both? Listen to this week's episode with Kati from @portraitofabrideonfire to chat through tips and ideas for finding ways to dress and present that will truly bring you joy on your day.

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.
Let's talk about who you choose to present on your wedding day and how you can add your own queer touch! Everything from your hair and makeup to what you decide to wear is a representation of how you want to authentically present on your wedding day! Let's talk about it!

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.
