About Aisle Less Traveled

Aisle Less Traveled

Queer Wedding Planner in Seattle for Fun, Modern, & Nontraditional Weddings!

Welcome to the land of bold colors, zero boring pastels, and weddings that couldn't possibly belong to anyone else. Aisle Less Traveled is a queer-owned wedding planning company based in Seattle, serving the greater Pacific Northwest since 2011. We offer full wedding planning and event design, wedding management for self-planning couples who want a pro to run the day, and officiating for ceremonies that actually sound like you. Over 50 years of combined live event experience. Featured in The New York Times, Fast Company, Condé Nast Traveler, Brides, and more.

We believe the only requirements for your wedding are the two of you and a valid marriage license. Everything else is yours to decide — or ditch entirely. Traditions you love? Keep them. Ones that don't fit? Gone. We've been planning queer weddings since before they were legal, and we're not new to this. We're also the planners who come out for you so you don't have to do it fourteen more times. Every vendor we recommend has been vetted through a queer lens — not just tolerant, but thrilled to be invited to the party.

In three words: Creative, Organized, Thoughtful

    We could not be happier with our new experience with Aisle Less Traveled. Cindy, Maddie and their team are fun and professional, open to incorporating all our wild ideas, and made the wedding planning process as stress free as possible. Our wedding came together BEAUTIFULLY with all the best vendors by our side. Could not recommend enough, 10 stars!

    I've worked with Cindy many many times while photographing weddings (especially queer weddings 🌈✨) and every time the evenings go absolutely amazing. Even leading up to the events Cindy is extremely thorough making sure every detail is accounted for! At our last wedding I worked with their assistant Maddy who helped coordinate the day just as amazing as Cindy does.

    I am so glad we finally got to work together, Jenn! Thank you for this lovely review. Our clients had a wonderful experience working with you as well. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer for them! Looking forward to (hopefully) many more events together!!

    We had the pleasure of having our wedding Officiant Cindy and she truly exceeded all our expectations. From the very first meeting, it was evident that she was dedicated to making our day special. She paid close attention to every detail about our relationship, reflecting our journey together beautifully in her words. Her warmth and sincerity created a lovely atmosphere, and we felt incredibly supported throughout the entire process. Our families also had nothing but positive things to say about her; they appreciated her professionalism and the personal touch she brought to the ceremony. Thanks to her efforts, our wedding was a memorable and heartfelt experience. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant and are so grateful for her contribution to our special day! Highly recommend!

    Cindy + team were amazing for our wedding! As a queer couple, we loved having a planner that didn't make assumptions about which traditions we would be following vs. subverting. In addition, it was very comforting to have a planner who automatically paid attention to details like gender neutral signs on bathrooms without us needing to come up with the idea ourselves. Cindy is extremely organized and kept us on track through a steady (but not overwhelming) stream of emails and planning meetings. We were free to focus on the areas of the wedding we cared most about, while the parts where we had fewer opinions were taken care of for us. We did a large amount of DIY decor and felt extremely supported through that process. Also, Cindy's vendor recommendations were not only very high quality, but focused on queer-owned local businesses that we could feel good about supporting. Finally, I want to call out one very special moment that illustrates how Aisle Less Travelled goes above and beyond. On the morning of the wedding, while we were getting ready, I had the idea to do a visual gag during my vows where at the right moment, my vows "unfurl" to a ridiculous length. Cindy's associate Maddy, who was there with us and has a background in theater, immediately jumped into action and made the prop for me. It worked perfectly, and created the perfect moment of levity that I was looking for during the ceremony!

    We loved planning and celebrating with you both! And, we're always thrilled when we get to dust off our theater kid skills and come in clutch with something fun and dramatic for a wedding. Wishing you and Cat an eternity of love and laughter!
