For Salt Lake City Couples Who Want Something Different
For the girls, the gays, the theys, the goths, the geeks, the freaks… and everyone in between
The Alt Wedding Expo
Your Love Deserves to Be Celebrated
…No Matter What It Looks Like
We’ve been around this wedding planning biz for a while now, and you know what we’ve noticed? There’s a lot of bullshit in the wedding industry.
Unless you’re planning a traditional, cookie-cutter, white-dove wedding, you have to move mountains to find the right vendors to celebrate your beautiful new beginning without judgment. And quite frankly? We’re sick of hearing about couples being turned away or misunderstood during what should be the most exciting time of their lives.
So… we’re here to change the game and show Salt Lake City what inclusive really looks like.
We’re Not Your Grandma’s Wedding Expo
We aren’t just booths and business cards. Pastels and Jordan almonds? We don’t know ‘em.
When we say we care about your wedding, we mean it.
When we say we’re inclusive, we’re not lying.
Here’s what you’ll get at the Alt Wedding Expo:
Curated alt vendors ready to rock your big day
A crowd that passes the vibe check
An experience that will embrace your excitement and help you create the wedding of your dreams
And none of that do it because you have to bullshit you get everywhere else
It doesn’t matter if your vibe is all black and skulls or every color of the rainbow. Your love is beautiful and we’ll make your big day beautiful, too … however that looks to you.
Meet the Beauty Behind the Brains of the Alt Wedding Expo
Hey! I’m Ryann. I run Ryann Kristena Events right here in Salt Lake City. After moving my business from Orange County, California, I noticed that this area was crawling with really awesome people with out-of-the-box wedding ideas. It’s just hard to find us all in one place.
So… I’m building it! Brick by brick, I’m pulling the Salt Lake City alt wedding community together to create one really incredible expo. It’s everything you need from a traditional wedding expo (the vendors, the cake, the dresses) without the judgmental bullshit you don’t (the side-eyes, the explanations, the “no thanks”).
If you’re LGBTQIA+ friendly, believe that Black Lives Matter, and support Trans Rights, I want you here at the Alt Wedding Expo.
You’re Already in Love with Your Partner. Come Fall In Love With Our Expo.
Date: February 19th & 20th, 2027
Venue: Memorial House, Salt Lake City
