Our Why

To be the biggest advocate and cheerleader for you on the most important day of your life. To simplify and beautify your wedding day so you can be fully and authentically present. To bring deep empathy to your experiences and honor your full humanity in the process

You and your partner(s) have a story unlike any other. Your wedding day should reflect your shared values, the journey you have taken, the life you will build. Navigating wedding traditions can be filled with conflicting emotions - this is especially true for queer people. We want to be the ones to help you identify the details of your wedding day that truly reflect who you are.

F*ck the traditions. We’re here to help you create your own. 

Bringing our program management skills, event planning experience, and deep investment in equity and justice, we provide intentional, value-centered wedding coordination and planning services for nearlyweds in New Orleans, the Gulf Coast, and beyond.

F*ck the traditions. We’re here to help you create your own.
