Bario Neal began as the collaborative work of designers Anna Bario and Page Neal. Anna and Page began working together with the shared idea that our most precious things come with a story. Drawn to the imaginative possibilities of jewelry, yet disillusioned by industry standards that turned a blind eye to metal and gemstone mining’s environmental and human tolls, the designers began to envision how to make jewelry of lasting value and ethical origins.

In 2008, Anna and Page launched Bario Neal as a design-forward, women-owned and feminist company. Today, Bario Neal is an industry leader in ethical sourcing and progressive manufacturing, known for its design sensibility and high-quality, handcrafted work. A belief in the right to love and marry whoever and however you choose is one of the core principles of Bario Neal’s jewelry. Whether it is a custom diamond ring or a pendant from the collections, each piece is designed in-house and handcrafted with reclaimed precious metals, Fairmined gold, and ethically sourced stones.

When visiting Bario Neal Philadelphia or the New York showroom, you will find an atmosphere unlike any other jewelry shop. The Philadelphia flagship doubles as both a production workshop and retail space, where a diverse group of skilled jewelers work next to the collection displays. The knowledgeable sales and design crew are thoughtful, approachable and trained to help customers realize their vision, whether through a custom design or an item from one of Bario Neal’s acclaimed collections.

Bario Neal is designing an ethical way forward for the jewelry industry, one handmade piece at a time. Explore our online shop, New York showroom or Philadelphia workshop and become part of the story.

Hello!

I’m Eleanor, a Colorado wedding photographer, and I capture the intimate moments that weddings lend themselves to. I want my photos to tell that story—of tiny touches within that sweeping romance, emotional outpourings, quiet whispers amidst the roaring laughter, hilarious surprises, delicate kisses. My goal is to flow between documentary, portraiture, lifestyle, landscape and details, without you even noticing I’m there, unless you need me. I’ll help you keep your day low-stress by honoring your space, because photography should capture the experience, not dictate it. With experience, I’ve developed an intuition about when and where things will happen, so I won’t miss a beat. The subtle nuances may fade into your memory, but I’ll be sure to capture them.

If you book me, I will send you planning worksheets and arrange a walk-through of your venue with you. I’ll help you and your partner develop a timeline that works for you, and fits your style as a couple. I’ll also bring a second photographer (for weddings over two hours), and that’s included in your cost. Your images will be delivered within 3-4 weeks, in a beautiful gallery which you can share. You can download images straight to your home computer or mobile device, or I can send you a customized USB drive. Bonus for 2023 couples, all weddings now include an instagram post to share as well!

I have been a Southern California Wedding Photographer for a bit. I’ve captured over 185 weddings and elopements in Southern California and the West.  I’ve become known for my colorful style and ability to put my clients at ease, oh, and also for going above and beyond & being helpful AF. I’m also part of the LGBTQ community and love capturing queer weddings.

Wherever you turn, you’ll find enchanting architectural backdrops for that perfect photo.

As a documentary-style photographer, I love to emphasize connection, texture, and authentic emotion. Being a former actor who found a deep love and passion for wedding photography, I’m most drawn to the art of story telling while creating honest and original work. I strive to make my images fully represent my couples in every way possible. From smaller, unconventional elopements to traditional full day events, I’m here to capture everything from the big kiss to the secret “I love yous” shared in a whisper.

Being by your side for nearly the entire day means I’m there to offer encouragement, consistent communication and good vibes. As your #1 hype-girl, I got you!

JC Lemon Photography is an award-winning New York City wedding photography studio that captures love in a modern, relaxed style.

COLORFUL WEDDING PLANNING AND DESIGN FOR THE JOYOUSLY CREATIVE!

Hi! I’m Holly Gray. My pronouns are she/her/hers. With a background in theater, hospitality and culinary arts, I’ve reinvented what it means to be a wedding planner. And trust me, you don’t just want a planner, you want someone to direct the show so you can be center stage and enjoy the spotlight.

I’m a native Los Angeleno with a steady pulse of innovation, community, and kindness. And no, I will not be running around your wedding with a walkie talkie. If you see someone running, that means something unexpected has happened. #notmystyle. Let’s be real, one of my superpowers is to put out the fires way before they start, and am waiting with open arms and a can-do attitude (as well as bright pink lipstick) for the unexpected. The only time you’ll see me run is when there’s an ice cream truck in front of me or a serial killer behind me.

You live life to the fullest, so why put your wedding in a monotonous box just to line up with someone else’s idea of tradition?

I say, let’s toss out the traditions in lieu of a wedding that is totally you. Anything But Gray Events makes the ordinary extraordinary. I plan colorfully joyful weddings and events for creative clients. Whether it be Wedding Planning and Design or Wedding Management (3 months prior), I can take your wedding experience to the next level! 

Anything But Gray Events proudly supports other local small businesses, the LGBTQ+ community and The Black Lives Matter movement. Everyone is welcome. My devotion to showcasing inclusivity, diversity, and love of all shapes, colors, and sizes is evident not only in my weddings and events but also in my vendor partners and associations.

The Tailory New York is an appointment-only custom clothing company that combines modern Fashion Design with the heritage art of Custom Tailoring. We believe that clothing is genderless, and we cater in equal measure to men, women, and non-binary individuals.

Providing personally designed, fitted, and curated collections for each individual client is the essence of who we are. At The Tailory New York, we believe that your wardrobe should not only fit perfectly but should be designed with only YOU in mind. The end result? Clients get the best of both worlds: impeccable custom fit and custom-designed pieces that work seamlessly with their lifestyle.

The idea for The Tailory New York began when the founder, Shao, decided to direct her years of fashion design and men’s tailoring experience toward her own wardrobe. As a pantsuit aficionado and a lover of men’s fashion and tailoring, Shao was always drawn to tailored clothing and strived to create fashion that conveyed the same message of confidence that a perfectly custom-tailored suit did for men.

The more Shao integrated herself in the industry, the more she realized that impeccable fit, for all genders, was almost impossible to find in ready-to-wear clothing. So in 2013, Shao launched The Tailory New York as a way to combine her two passions: Fashion Design and Custom Tailoring. Everyone wants to look their best, and having a wardrobe curated to your body and lifestyle not only enables you to look your best but makes you feel your best.

Let us curate and design the wardrobe fit for you!

Nestled in Long Beach, California, we are the premiere LGBTQIA wedding provider for the Los Angeles County and Orange County market.  Gay-owned and -operated since 2000!

I started taking photos professionally in 2000 with the belief that photography should not have to cost an arm and a leg. Several of my friends were getting married at the time, and I was blown away by how much photographers were charging. I was equally surprised with the lack of service and quality they were providing. I made it my mission to start a business in which I could put the customers’ needs first. By keeping prices affordable while maintaining exceptional quality and customer service, I have grown my business over the years. From start to finish, David England Photography is a unique experience. I strive to capture lasting images for my clients in a fun, easy, and affordable way. I believe clients should have the right to own their own images. They should be able to share them with friends and family members as they see fit. Because no two events are the same, we approach each celebration with a fresh perspective. Through years of studying the craft of photography, I pride myself in the art of storytelling through photographs. I love what I do, and I‘ve surrounded myself with a team of photographers who share my passion. Knowing with each image I’m creating a masterpiece that can be passed down from generation to generation is food for my soul. My clients are an extension of my family, and when given the task of capturing important moments, I give myself to the craft, and I give my heart completely to the art of photography.

Hi, friend! I’m Devin, a wedding and portrait photographer in Greenville, South Carolina.  I absolutely love celebrating with my couples on one of the best days of their lives!  I love investing in and getting to really know my couples – I think that’s the best way to tell your story!  The friendships I’ve made along the way are the absolute best part of being a photographer.

I love genuine moments and making people laugh.  I want to create images that you’ll still love in 20, 50, 100 years!  I keep the photography experience easygoing and lighthearted, so you never leave feeling “gosh, that was awkward!”

I’m always up for an adventure!  I’ve never met a mountain that I didn’t like.  I love my dogs, Harry Potter (proud Hufflepuff!), Leslie Knope, and the Great British Bake Off.

I would love to hear about your story and your vision for your wedding day!

We use our expertise to guide you seamlessly through the purchase of heirloom-quality jewelry you’ll love to wear or give – made with ethically sourced materials you’ll feel great about.

Mercurius believes that the origin of each part is inseparable from the complete beauty of the finished object, so the team carefully sources all materials – including Fairmined Certified gold, traceable colored gemstones, and post-consumer recycled and lab-grown diamonds.

From design to final production, all pieces are lovingly created at our studio on Huchiun Ohlone land in Oakland, California, with a commitment to ethics and transparency.

Crafted from unique materials that showcase the abundance, mesmerizing patterns, and stunning variation of the natural world, the timeless and talismanic jewelry invokes a sense of magic and elemental balance.

Commitment Collection
A ring worn daily is an intimate and powerful piece of jewelry, reminding you of what you value most each time it catches your attention. Especially when that ring is symbolic of vows you’ve made to each other or yourself.

Ethically sourced, thoughtfully designed, and expertly crafted – our Commitment Collection is created to be well-loved and worn for a lifetime.

​All Commitment Collection Rings are made to order, tailored just for you.

About Us

Husband-and-wife team Alisa and David Thorp are captivated by alchemical theory, which posits that elements in perfect balance – air, fire, water, and earth – are forces of nature that can unleash the spirit within matter and reveal something greater than the sum of its parts.

Hi, I’m Adrian! I’m a laid back photographer who drinks an obscene amount of hot chocolate, collects DIY-projects, and helps people forget there’s a camera near them. Before stepping into wedding photography, I worked in Fine Art and chemistry, which led to a fascination with how art and experimentation could be combined in new and fun ways.

I show up to each session with a playful attitude, plenty of snacks, and some serious optimism. Events aren’t always perfect, but I’ll show up with rose tinted glasses anyway (don’t worry— I’ll bring enough optimism to share).

About

Venture Ever After specializes in adventure elopement photography and experiences in the PNW. My focus is on helping people in love have the intimate wedding of their dreams in magical outdoor spaces. I believe that love is best strengthened through meaningful, shared experiences, and what better occasion to approach with intentionality and meaning as your wedding day?

When you choose to elope, you’re choosing to get married free of society’s wedding day expectations. So go wild! Choose to spend the entire day in your favorite place, with your favorite person. Wear a fancy outfit, or wear your hiking boots. Invite your dog instead of your mom’s second cousin. Share your first kiss under the stars instead of under an altar.

In the great outdoors, you write the wedding rules. And I’m here to help make it an experience you’ll remember for a lifetime.

My Values

I do this work for two reasons: Because I love people and I love the planet.

People

I love all types of people, and yet all types of people are not always celebrated in the wedding industry, or in outdoor spaces.

F that.

You deserve an elopement experience you’ll never forget, regardless of what you look like, how old you are, or who you love.

Planet

I’m a Leave No Trace certified photographer, conserving energy through my personal and business choices, and continuing to lean into environmental activism.

Giving Back

I donate $200 to an organization of your choice when you book with me.

Seeing the beauty and confidence in your visual images without compromising your voice or uniqueness is my photo journalistic style. It all starts with feeling relaxed and being yourselves in front of the camera. Sharing in the in-between moments when you are unaware of the camera, are the photos that I love most. I am a San Luis Obispo (SLO) and Santa Barbara, California, wedding photographer specializing in LGBTQ+ and inclusive couples. Travel internationally? Of course! I want to work with you to create an amazing experience.

At Northwood Rings we believe that every ring should be as unique as the hand it adorns. We create non-traditional engagement and wedding rings from bentwood, precious metals and natural materials. Our wooden rings can be custom crafted to your specifications and we’re always happy to work with couples to create a one-of-a-kind wedding set.

With our Care-For-Life and Perfect Fit guarantees, our free shipping and our excellent customer service you’re sure to find just what you’re looking for.

Majestic, enduring photography
for adventurous soulmates…

Based in Vail, Colorado.

Weddings start at $4400 and elopements start at $1970.

Looking for a photographer that spends extra time creating a custom experience for your elopement? Do you want someone who hand-edits each and every image, making sure it’s perfect before delivering them to you? That’s me!

I provide something a little different, a custom experience built for you as a couple. I’ll go the extra mile to make the whole photo experience an adventure:

We’ll start with a questionnaire to get to know you …

… then I’ll help style you two (if you want advice)

…I will send you all the vendor recommendations if you need other help

… and we will brainstorm how adventurous we want the location to be!

Then on the day of your elopement, I’ll guide you into poses that bring out the authentic connection between you all.

Do you want a final product that looks like art on your walls, dropping the jaws of your visitors?

Perfect!
