Travel In Parallel

What do you offer?

I offer bespoke wedding stationery with skills that span industries. I've studied fashion and textile design and have worked in both interior and furniture design, so I have the knowledge to create something different.

Why do you want to work with the LGBTQ+ community?

I want to work with the LGBTQ+ community because I understand the anxiety when contacting wedding suppliers for the first time. I (she/her) married my spouse (they/them) in 2023, and the subtle weight in my chest when emailing suppliers in case they replied with "mr & Mrs", "bride & groom" or worse yet, is something I don't want anyone to experience. I don't assume your gender, race, or relationship dynamics. Just here to help you create magic on your big day.

Allyship

Specifically within my stationery business, I don't assume pronouns, gender or relationship dynamics. There's no "bride and groom" terminology over here! I also don't assume that the wedding is just for two people. Personally, I'm currently fundraising for my spouse to have gender affirming surgery and have mainly helped raise additional funds by selling queer art prints. I donate to top surgery funds (aside from my spouse's!) when I can and help raise awareness on my social media stories about how underfunded gender services are.

I've just started trading in the summer of 2025, so my portfolio is limited. I would LOVE to work with LGBTQ+ nearlyweds in the very near future, as this is where my passion is. My first step towards this is applying for the Rebel Love Directory! What I've already implemented is neutral terminology on my website, as well as asking for pronouns of the nearlyweds on my booking form.
