Who we are

Made by two lovers who couldn’t find themselves in wedding magazines

Dancing With Her started in 2016, when Arlia and Tara got engaged, went looking for wedding inspiration and found nothing that looked like them. An Instagram account became a blog. In 2017 it became the first wedding magazine of its kind, shipped to more than 40 countries.

Since then we’ve shared over 1,500 LGBTQ+ love stories from couples in 50+ countries, spoken on stages in the US and Hong Kong, landed in the pages of Forbes and become part of the Australian Queer Archives. We still make it from home, on Dja Dja Wurrung Country in Bendigo, Australia.
