I just wanted to say, thank you so much for an awesome event. This was my first expo with your organization and I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. From the warm hospitality shown by the hosts and staff (Cindy and Marianne, you’re amazing), to getting a chance to meet great vendors, and lastly, getting the opportunity to engage with so many couples. If I could, I would follow your organization to every location just because of this experience. Peace and blessings to you all.

Your wedding journey starts here — Orlando style!

If you’re planning a wedding and want a space that celebrates who you are, join us for the Orlando LGBTQ+ Wedding Expo on Sunday, August 16, 2026, at the Crowne Plaza Orlando Downtown.

This isn’t just a wedding show — it’s a chance to explore ideas, meet supportive professionals, and feel truly seen while planning one of the most meaningful days of your life. Throughout the afternoon, you’ll connect with LGBTQ+-affirming wedding experts from Central Florida and surrounding areas who are ready to help turn your ideas into something unforgettable.

Take a break from endless scrolling and planning stress. Enjoy complimentary refreshments, sample delicious offerings, tour the venue, and spark conversations with other couples who are navigating the same exciting (and sometimes overwhelming) planning process. Along the way, be sure to enter our raffles and giveaways — because planning should include a little fun, too.

Everything you need, all under one roof! From first “yes” to final details, you’ll find:

Officiants • Venues • DJs • Photographers • Jewelers • Invitations • Travel • Caterers • Bakers • Wedding Planners • Musicians • Photobooths • and more

🎟 Admission is FREE with your RSVP. After signing up, keep an eye on your email (and spam folder) for important updates and event details. And if you love what we’re building, sharing the event with friends and family helps us keep these spaces growing and inclusive.

Come celebrate love, creativity, and community — and leave with ideas, connections, and confidence for what comes next.

We can’t wait to welcome you this Summer at the Crowne Plaza Orlando Downtown.

For Exhibitors

The Right Fit

Boutique style, featuring a select number of exhibitors, our expos offer local small business owners the opportunity to invest in an experience that brings real results.

A standard booth space measures 8' in width by 6' in depth. Need more room to shine? Premium spaces also available.

Each exhibitor footprint includes a standard 6' banquet table, linen and two chairs.  -No pipe & drape, as we wish to create an open and welcoming atmosphere.  But you're encouraged to customize and spotlight your own polish & flair:  feel free to bring signature linens, freestanding backdrop, signage, uplighting or accent pieces. 

Guidance & Support

Our experienced team provides final logistics for the event ten days prior, but if you have questions that arise at anytime leading up to, during or after the event we're just a phone call, email or text away. We're committed to offering substantive communication, and pride ourselves on producing events that are streamlined, highly productive, and FUN!

Your Bridge to Awesome Clients

We strive to create events that promote quality conversations. Get ready to meet qualified couples who are eager to find professionals like you, who support non-discrimination and want to connect with those who are like-minded.

Building Relationships

Each exhibitor is provided with a full contact list,  the week following the show, from couples who opt-in to follow-up communication.
