As I join along with the rest of the lgbtq+ couples that are either engaged or about to be engaged, it has me thinking about all of the various traditions of engagements, wedding and marriage and questioning what rules apply to us? I hope you'll listen along to hear some of the thoughts of my audience and share their own personal experiences of what they did and how they chose that.
Happy New Year Everyone, I will see you in 2024 for more Queerly Beloved Content!

This episode is maybe one of the most unique I've done so far- so don't miss out!

I chat with Nick who is leading a study with the following description: 

"The Loveallways study is a project led by an LGBTQ+ affirming lab focused on newlywed LGBTQ+ couples."

We chat about the importance of how the findings of this study will impact the future of our community, both from the community's perspective and outside! AND! BONUS! if YOU are queer and recently married, you can participate in this study and help contribute to the future of our community. Learn more and sign up here: https://redcap.du.edu/surveys/?__dashboard=4T7YM3KL73R

This week I have friends and amazing humans, Mckenna and Tiffany with Queerly Beloved Events Co.! Yes- we do share the same name so it's double the fun.
As fellow queer business owners who have a full season of planning and helping other queer couples get married in 2023, I wanted their unique insights and wisdom on the lgbtq+ wedding world. They share lots of laugh and helpful tips, so please give it a listen and share with a friend who may be wedding planning!

Hello hello! This week's episode is a follow up from the last episode, but instead things I'd love to see MORE of in 2024 as our generation is navigating a world where we have no kinds of "traditions" that feel right for all love stories.
Here is the episode with Priya Parker I referenced.

If you have other ideas for things you'd like to see more of in the wedding world in 2024, or just want to say hello, please message me @wildlyconnectedphoto!

Alright folks! Who's ready for some change to make 2024 weddings even better and more inclusive!?
There are just some things in our industry that while, aren't necessarily intended to be harmful, end up perpetuating stereotypes and trying to make couples fit into boxes. So I hope you'll join me with an open mind and you're listening ears! :)

ALSO! I want to hear the story of YOUR LOVE! I'm calling all queer and lgbtqia2s+ couples to come on the podcast to share your experiences for other couples to relate to and for all of us to learn from!

Cheers my Queers!

In this episode, I interview Malachi of Shell Creek Photography who made the corageus jump to publicly come out just this past June. Together we discuss what it means to come out as business owner and how that has affected our business- good, bad or otherwise.
If you need someone to talk to, please don't hesitate to reach out to Malachi or I and we will be happy to be support and keep things anonymous.
If you would like to talk to someone else, please consider looking at all of the many resources and support options that The Trevor Project has.
