Queerly Beloved: How Six Wedding Vendors Threw the Most Magical LGBTQ+ Wedding Day Boston Has Ever Seen

On January 5, 2025, six Boston-area wedding professionals came together to create something the city had never seen before. Queerly Beloved — co-founded by Amanda Macchia Photography, One Bell Designs, DJ Dayglow, Dearly Studio, Althea Floral Design, and Lensy Michelle - along with several other vendor partners - brought seven LGBTQ+ couples to the altar for free micro-wedding ceremonies at The Sinclair in Cambridge, followed by a dance party open to all. Over 400 guests showed up. $4,000 was raised for the Trevor Project.
