Moon Mama Event Co.
Full-service planning for queer love stories, wherever love takes you.
Moon Mama Event Co. creates weddings and celebrations that feel deeply personal, affirming, and unapologetically authentic.
As a queer-owned business, we know how meaningful it is to work with vendors who truly understand your relationship, your identities, and the family you’ve built around you. Our goal is to create spaces where LGBTQ+ couples can show up fully as themselves without worrying about being misgendered, misunderstood, or pressured into traditions that don’t resonate.
We specialize in planning, coordination, celebrancy, emceeing, design, florals, wedding hair styling, custom builds, and creating unforgettable experiences that reflect your story—not someone else’s expectations. Whether you’re dreaming of an intimate elopement, a destination wedding, a community-centered celebration, or a wildly unconventional gathering, we’re here to help bring it to life.
While Moon Mama is based in California, our work is not limited by geography. We happily travel throughout the United States and internationally, supporting couples wherever their love story takes them. Whether you’re exchanging vows beneath redwood trees, on a tropical shoreline, in a bustling city, or halfway across the world, we’re honored to meet you there.
We especially love working with sapphic couples, trans and nonbinary partners, chosen families, and folks who are building something beautifully outside the box. Some of our favorite moments are helping couples reimagine traditions, create meaningful rituals, and celebrate in ways that feel genuinely aligned with who they are.
At Moon Mama, we believe weddings aren’t about perfection—they’re about connection. Our role is to protect your peace, hold space for your joy, and help create a celebration that feels like home.

What’s your dream wedding theme? Bucket list type’ve theme.
A multi-day celebration on a remote tropical island where guests feel like they’ve stepped into another world. Think lush, overgrown florals spilling out of the landscape, long communal dinners featuring incredible local cuisine, oceanfront ceremonies at sunset, immersive art installations, live musicians, fire dancers, stargazing, and barefoot dancing under the moonlight.
I’d want every detail to feel deeply connected to the place itself—the culture, the people, the food, the natural beauty—while creating an experience that feels both wildly luxurious and deeply meaningful. Less wedding, more unforgettable adventure with all your favorite people.
The best weddings don’t just look beautiful; they transport you somewhere. My dream wedding would leave guests saying, “I can’t believe we got to be part of that.”
What’s your favorite way to give back to the community?
My favorite way to give back is by creating community. Whether that’s supporting LGBTQ+ community events, mentoring fellow small business owners, volunteering my skills, fundraising for causes I care about, or helping bring people together through meaningful gatherings, I’ve always believed that community is something we actively create.
Some of my favorite moments have come from helping people find connection—whether that’s at a Pride event, a craft fair, a fundraiser, or a wedding filled with chosen family. There’s something really powerful about creating spaces where people feel seen, celebrated, and welcomed exactly as they are.
How do you help calm down nervous lovers?
I remind them that their only job that day is to be in love.
At a recent wedding, one of my brides was feeling incredibly overwhelmed. Her wedding party was running late for hair and makeup, timelines felt stressful, and all the little things that can feel huge on a wedding day were piling up. I was at the venue setting everything up, so I sent her a voice memo.
I reminded her that the only thing she needed to worry about that day was celebrating her love and looking beautiful—and she already looked beautiful, so that was one less thing to worry about. I walked her through some grounding and breathing exercises, reminded her how incredible she is, and told her how honored I was to be her planner and celebrant.
The message worked a little too well. She was so touched that she called me crying happy tears and had to get her makeup touched up before the ceremony.
I can’t promise a wedding day will be perfectly stress-free, but I can promise that when nerves show up, I’ll be there to help carry some of the weight. Sometimes that looks like fixing logistics behind the scenes. Sometimes it looks like a pep talk, a deep breath, or a reminder of what really matters.
At the end of the day, everything comes back to love.
