Turn your phone sideways and cry with me!(!!!)
In absolute awe of the @castillohollidayfilms team, who brought to life a spot that captures how I hope every wedding at Dearly Studio *feels*
I’m really bad at asking for help, so it blows me away that this 30-second video holds 40+ different Dearly couples, pals, and vendors. Thanks to everyone who leant their photos + voices, this community is the greatest.
An extra big thanks to Dominique (@castillohollidayphotoandfilm ), who started this process with “I know how you are about being on camera, so I concepted something with a voiceover.” To be loved is to be seen lol
The couple featured are Germaine + Alfredo, a real Dearly couple from 2024 who are too smart for this app. It’d been a while since I saw them, so I forgot that their perfect dog Horchata has little heart shaped spots on her eyes. Did you notice them?!
Anyway, everyone go tell Dominique, Javi, Anthony, Hunter, Isaac, and Viktor that they are wildly talented.

❤️🔥❤️🔥All Dearly girls are lover girls but not all lover girls are Dearly girls, idk❤️🔥❤️🔥
A reminder that @mad.anthonytattoo has a Dearly Studio flash sheet! And if I think about that for too long I’ll cry! Ok, bye!
Hot new photos by @castillohollidayphotoandfilm means we finally have an “about” page on the website. Only took 2 years! Figured we might as well do another introduction here as well.
As a reminder:
We’re Dearly Studio, a small wedding business that leads with our values. That means we…
♥️ celebrate all couples, inclusive of every gender identity, orientation, race, body size, immigration status – you name it.
♥️ work in ways that prioritize community care over billionaire bullshit.
♥️ are committed to creating an inclusive and safe space for all our marriers.
♥️ thoroughly vet all preferred vendors.

We say it all the time: Dearly exists for huge hearts + tiny guests lists. We can seat 20 guests for your ceremony at Dearly at a ✨ max ✨ but here’s a little visual to explain what exactly that means
Stills from Bailey and Ellie’s love story, coming soon! 💕
There’s no other way to say it: these two are just the coolest. I had the pleasure of filming them three times – they welcomed me into their home to talk about how they met, invited me to their special ceremony with friends and family at Dearly Studio in Bow Market, and to cap it off I caught their incredible performance with their band The Femmes at Porch Fest. This is what love looks like. I can’t wait to share their film!

Idk yall I’m over being on camera so please accept these tips from my dog, Moose.
And as always, * dearly dot studio slash blog * has lots of info, checklists, and resources coming your way weekly. Umm, monthly. Okay, monthly-ish!
The absolute definition of being present ❤️🔥
This is what is looks like when you’re not worried about shot lists or timelines.
When you realize the varied and beautiful possibilities that open up once you choose to do it your way. And only your way.
When you hire the right vendors. The real ones know what really matters and will help you root back into that whenever possible.
This is what is looks like when you celebrate community alongside your love.
When you invite your guests into your ceremony - a way of asking them to be an even deeper part of your story.
When your neighborhood becomes your venue (and for these two, when your colleagues become your vendors!).
To a never ending cascade of chaotically brilliant light, bright color, loud records and vibrant extroverted love for Bailey, Ellie and their families. Thanks for inviting me in to tell your story⚡️
