since 2011, I regularly speak at university courses, international conferences, and as a language teacher and organize events
Why inclusive events?
As a queer, genderfluid person, I know how important it is to work with vendors who respect and accept me for who I am.
​
Life cycle ceremonies, particularly weddings, are still dominated by heteronormative standards. But even beyond that, I'm working to create inclusive weddings, with accessible venues and vendors open to intercultural ideas.
The weddings, events, and ceremonies we create together will be different and inclusive—they can be anything you want.
My No-Gos
Anything that discriminates against minorities—that includes Harry Potter-themed weddings. But if you want to have an HP wedding without any official merch, I'm your human. I already have tons of ideas!
(If you support facists, I wonder how you ended up here, but of course I'm not here for you either).
Weddings in zoos, (semi) flying pigeons and butterflies, horse-drawn carriages. I think you know what I'm getting at. If you want to include your dog in your wedding ceremony (e.g. as a ring dog), I will be happy to support you—as long as you are sure that the situation and all your guests are not too stressful for your dog.
