Florida LGBTQ+ Friendly
Preferred Wedding Vendors
As an LGBTQ+ photographer myself I believe representation and acceptance is extremely important, especially in the wedding industry. I have had multiple clients over the years come to me and tell me that they were turned down by other vendors because of who they love. That to me is unbearable, and I don’t want that for anyone moving forward. I can’t imagine the heartache that would make anyone feel, and so I’ve created this list in the hopes that you will find it useful while planning your wedding, and I hope that it means that you find vendors that will show you the respect and love that you deserve.
Over the years I’ve met and gotten to work with some amazing vendors who I whole heartedly recommend and know they will bring your vision to life— that includes other photographers (in case I’m not available), videographers, venues, florist, and so much more!
