About

I started Functions and Gatherings for two reasons. Number one: One of my personal goals is to just do really gay shit all the time. Number two: Queer weddings get treated as a service when they're really just like any other wedding. Most wedding planners just don't know what to do if there's not a "bride" and "groom." So many wedding traditions are based in misogynistic, heteronormative values and my dream is to break that down to create new rituals and traditions void of gendered language and stereotyping to celebrate each partnership's uniqueness.

Jake of Functions and Gatherings helped me with day-of coordination, as well as planning my wedding in April and- oh boy!- am I glad he was there. During the planning process, I had a LOT of questions and he was always there to talk me through situations and present me with options. Jake is quick to respond and really took my vision and helped it become a reality, even when I gave him a very vague task or idea, he quickly got back to me with ways to make it work. The day-of the event was stress-free, in large part due to Jake's professionalism and can-do attitude. He was exceptional at balancing the necessary tasks of a wedding day, while attentive and friendly to both myself and my guests. I'm so proud of the wedding we put together and cannot recommend Functions and Gatherings enough!
