Tell me if this is you:
(And you need it to be someone who just gets you.)
Someone who won’t shove you into a wedding-industry-shaped box. Someone who thinks your quirky couple things are rad and who celebrates your love equally and who will question the patriarchy along the way with you.
Oh yeah, and someone who maybe has done this a few times before.
Together, we can plan the YOU-est wedding there ever could be – and we’ll probably even have fun doing it.
Hi, I’m Cindy, founder of Aisle Less Traveled, where my team and I help LGBTQ+ marriers and our allies plan meaningful, modern weddings without all of the stress!
I’m a queer wedding planner in Seattle and I love to visit my best friend a few hours south, so I’m a Portland wedding planner, too.
We offer a wide range of services from full-service, start-to-finish wedding planning and design to our signature wedding management (a.k.a. “day-of-coordination”) package to wedding planning memberships for DIY-ers, plus a la carte options you can mix and match to build a package that works for you.
And thanks to modern technology and a not-so-gentle nudge by a global pandemic, wedding pros can do just about everything but the wedding day itself from any location. So if you or your wedding are not in the Pacific Northwest, no problem – we can be your virtual wedding planner, and either hand things off to your local wedding coordinator or travel there ourselves.
The TL;DR is: if you want to plan with us, we’ve got something that will fit your needs and budget!
COVID also gave me the opportunity to do something I’d been wanting to for a while: become a secular wedding officiant. If you’re looking for a wedding ceremony free from religious, patriarchal bullshit and written from a queer, feminist perspective – I’ve got you.

Fun fact: Maddy & Kevin were the very first couple to hire me after I relocated to the Pacific Northwest! I’d run a special offer
Well, y’all, it really has been a year, hasn’t it? When I wrapped up last year (and my first decade of weddings), I was heading into 2020 with about a dozen weddings on the books and as many trips to go along with them. January was fabulous! I had consultations with amazing couples across the country and I headed to Boston for a few days to meet with prospective vendors and a catering tasting with Anne & Andrew.
Katie & Greg’s big spring wedding day wedding day unfolded just outside of Cincinnati at the Madison Event Center, where their guests gathered for an emotional wedding ceremony. A night of dining, dancing, and mugging for the photo booth followed, capped off with a treat from Skyline Chili!
We acknowledge that we are on the unceded ancestral lands of the Coast Salish peoples, including the Duwamish, Suquamish, and Tulalip tribes as well as many others in the broader Puget Sound region. We honor, with gratitude, the land itself and their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
