every couple

An Invitation to Vend at Michigan’s Most

Inclusive Wedding Show

We Wed With Pride is Michigan's joyful, unapologetically inclusive wedding show, founded by three wedding-business entrepreneurs for the couples and families that traditional shows leave out. We're here to celebrate the whole flourishing, growing, vibrant alphabet of the LGBTQIA community, and every kind of love that walks through the door.

For vendors, that means a calmer, better-run floor, a room full of couples who are actively looking for people who celebrate them rather than tolerate them, and a place in something that keeps going long after the weekend ends. Come celebrate with queer folx, not just near them.

The couples and families you'll meet here

We Wed With Pride is building an event that is fun, non-judgmental, and supportive of every couple's romance vision.

We want to celebrate the whole flourishing, growing, vibrant alphabet of the LGBTQIA community.

So if you want to celebrate with queer folx, not just tolerate us, you belong here.

why exhibit with us

Reach couples who are actively looking for you

Let's be honest about standard wedding shows.

They're loud and chaotic, so real conversation is nearly impossible. Vendors don't know who's coming, so they can't plan their staffing or lineup, and couples don't know who'll be there, so they can't tell if the show fits their vision. And too many shows carry a heteronormative streak that alienates the very couples you'd most want to serve (think lesbian brides getting asked "where's the groom?").

We Wed With Pride is built to fix all of that, and it pays off for the vendors in the room:

  • Higher attendance from couples who are turned off or overwhelmed by standard shows

  • Greater market awareness for your business

  • Same-day sales that help offset the cost of attending

We center queer couples, along with anyone put off by the heteronormative feel of a standard show. Queer culture is featured, honored, and celebrated (yes, including Drag Queen Bingo for a good cause). The floor is calmer and easier to plan around, so you actually get to talk to the couples you want to serve. And every approved vendor lands in our nationwide directory of queer-friendly businesses, value that keeps working long after the weekend.

If this sounds like your kind of event, join in the fun.

Get listed in the nationwide LGBTQ friendly vendor directory

Every approved vendor is added to a nationwide directory of queer-friendly wedding businesses. It's visibility that keeps working long after the expo doors close, and a mark of belonging to something bigger than one weekend in Detroit.
