Why we should care about weddings | Jen Siomacco | TEDxRVA

Jen Siomacco is the co-owner and Creative Director for Catalyst Wedding Co., a publication increasing the representation of diverse and unconventional love and weddings; all genders, sexual orientations, races, ethnicities, cultures, abilities, and body sizes welcome. “Inclusivity” and “social perception and acceptance” might not be concepts we intuitively mix with the high-drama, high-romance of the wedding industry, but in her talk, Jen shares ideas on how to shift the traditional narrative.
Jen’s work hasn’t been all white lace and roses. After working as a UX Designer for the better half of a decade, studying how customers browse and access content.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Eloping is what we’re doing next year, all my life I was making someone or the other happy one day for just the two of us. Throwing money into a furnace will not keep you warm for very long, be financially responsible.

To whom does representation matter? No to me. Claiming that it matters universally seems like her excuse to tell people what they should do. Live and let live.

Hugely misleading title. Cool talk, but not what I was looking for at all
