Studio RM

Studio RM is a wedding planning company in New York City, founded by Ryan. The team treats each wedding as a contemporary story and works from concept to design with close attention to the details.

Why they suit LGBTQ+ couples

Studio RM is LGBTQ+-owned. A planner who builds each celebration around the personality of the couple gives you the space to design a day that reflects both of you, without having to adapt a heterosexual template. The team has experience with events from the rehearsal dinner to the reception.

Starting the process

Come with a clear budget, a guest estimate and three words that describe the feel you want. Ask how the team divides planning and design, who will be on site on the day and how often you will meet. Request a timeline that shows decisions in order, from venue to vendors, so you know what comes first.

New York City dates and venues book far ahead, so make early contact if you plan to wed in a popular season. Ask also how the team handles vendor contracts and payments. Ask how decisions are recorded, and request a shared checklist so both partners can follow progress and sign off.

Area

The studio is based in New York City. Ask whether planning extends to venues outside the city.
