WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 3, 2025 at Soulet Muse
Dearly Beloved,
We are Gathered Here Today…
To Say “I DO” During The Biggest
Queer Dance Party In New Orleans
It’s a wedding.
It’s a dance party.
It’s queer AS HECK.
Dearly Beloved is a one-of-a-kind celebration where LGBTQ+ couples can get married in a beautiful venue with the best vendors in New Orleans.
We’ve combined a mass wedding ceremony (minus the culty vibe) with a hype dance party to create something beautiful, accessible, unforgettable, and sure to disappoint at least one family member :)
Whether you’re looking to tie the knot, renew your vows, or just hit the dance floor in your fanciest outfit — we’ll be gathered at Soulet Muse on December 3 to celebrate love in all its queer, chaotic glory.
Tie the knot with your favorite person.
Then dance the night away with your chosen family.
Why a Mass Wedding?
-
Not every queer person has family they can lean on — but we do have chosen family. A mass wedding lets us celebrate love together, surrounded by people who truly see us, support us, and are aligned with us.
-
Weddings are expensive, and for many, they can feel completely out of reach. By coming together, we can create a beautiful, memorable celebration in a stunning venue — with inclusive, affirming vendors — at a fraction of the cost of a traditional wedding.
-
Let’s be real — a giant mass queer wedding-meets-dance party is just f*ckin’ fun and weird and a great story to tell your cats one day.
Not to mention…
The current political climate is fucking terrifying for many LGBTQ+ folks. Hard-won rights are under attack, and policies meant to protect us are being rolled back.
It’s not just politics — it’s our lives, our families, and our ability to love and live freely.
We believe the answer to fear is bold, unapologetic visibility.
Now is the time to take up space, celebrate our love, and make sure the world sees that we are here, we are thriving, and we will not be erased.
