Planning your wedding is such a personal experience. Every choice, from the venue to the centerpieces, reflects your love story, your values, and the people who matter most to you. So why not choose vendors who really get it? Supporting LGBTQ+ vendors is a great way to celebrate love and community while working with people who share your values and understand your vision.
As a queer-owned Wisconsin business, we love supporting and recommending fellow LGBTQ+ owned businesses. If you’re planning a wedding in Wisconsin, you’re in luck. There are so many incredible queer-owned businesses here full of talent, passion, and creativity. Here’s a list of some of our absolute favorites—vendors who will help make your wedding everything you’ve dreamed of (and more!).

The Baked Lab, based in Madison, takes wedding cakes to the next level with clean and modern designs that are as delicious as they are beautiful.
