Bailey’s Recommended Wedding Vendors
Having been in the wedding industry for 10 years now, I’ve met and collaborated with lot of wedding vendors in the process. In an effort to make your vendor search easier, and in order to lift up other small businesses I love, I’ve highlighted my favorite wedding vendors (aka “friendors”) in this exhaustive list. I have no business agreement with these individuals, just support and love.
You’ll find high-quality vendors many of whom are queer-affirming, eco-friendly, BIPOC or woman-owned and bring the upmost attention to detail to your dream wedding!

Kirrin Finch
Kirrin Finch is a queer-woman owned conscientious clothing company offering menswear-inspired apparel for women, trans, and non-binary bodies. We design with you in mind so you can feel seen, confident, and show up authentically. When you look good, you feel good, and when you feel good, you can conquer anything! Kirrin Finch was born out of frustration at the lack of gender-defying fashion that fit their personal style-avoiding ill-fitting menswear and frilly womenswear. We knew others felt the same way too. Through innovative design and a dedication to authenticity, we empower customers to embrace their unique identity.
The Tailory
The Tailory New York is an appointment-only, women-owned and operated bespoke clothing company that combines modern fashion design with the heritage art of custom tailoring. We stand firmly in the belief and knowledge that suiting is genderless and caters in equal measure to men, women, and non-binary individuals.
Custom suiting either fulfills or subverts societal expectations by communicating a self-determined personal image to the world around us. We wield the power of fashion design to meet the singular needs of each of our clients, particularly those in the LGBTQIA+ community, which sets us apart from other custom clothiers.
Bindle & Keep
Bindle & Keep uses old-fashioned tailoring methods to make suits that are truly androgynous. Their team understands the ways in which most men’s suits fall short when women (and transgender men) try to wear them off the rack. Owners Daniel Friedman and Rae Tutera have turned the daunting experience of buying suits into a source of empowerment for its clients. In that sense, Bindle & Keep is as much a purveyor of confidence as it is of clothes
