Flip through a popular wedding magazine, browse a wedding website...you'll find that BIPOC & LBGTQ+ couples are shockingly under-represented. Yes, there are some blogs and some companies who are doing the work on their platform to be more inclusive, but that is NOT ENOUGH. Representation across all industries, especially in Hollywood, is STILL something we are advocating for change and action in. I urge and invite you to be part of that change with me. #changetheweddingindustry https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/why-diversity-and-inclusivity-matters-to-me monthly 0.5 2021-04-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/1596141710274-KQZSS63HBAL704U5VAUL/20190101-164521.jpg Blog - Why Diversity and Inclusivity Matters To Me My name is Marcela Garcia Pulido. I am a first generation, American-born daughter of Mexican immigrants. I grew up in San Bernardino, California, literally on the wrong side of the tracks. I vividly remember as a kid being jealous of the kids that I knew that lived in the suburbs, in their beautiful and safe homes. Whereas I was not allowed to walk anywhere alone and always had to be back home before dark. I once asked my dad why we couldn’t live in those nice neighborhoods and he told me, “If we move there, all the white people will move away.” The weight of this statement wouldn’t hit me until decades later, when I moved to another state. https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/category/resources monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/category/Stories monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/tag/portland+bipoc+wedding+vendors monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/tag/portland+wedding+vendors monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/tag/support+small+businesses monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/tag/portland+wedding+photography monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/tag/oregon+bipoc+wedding+vendors monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/tag/bipoc+vendors monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/tag/BIPOC+wedding+vendors monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/tag/portland+wedding+photographer monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/tag/chicana+wedding+photographer monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/tag/small+business monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/tag/vendors+of+color monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/blog/tag/chicana+wedding+vendor monthly 0.5 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/home daily 1.0 2026-03-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/1618370629759-77MH6W8ZKSKW1MN3895V/humans_standing-19%402x.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/1598304926726-93CD1A7VNJUEPWGO4ZNN/118044287_10223313804741940_3549903018295794201_o.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/166ac16b-86f6-4658-94b2-4e13dcf9386d/Simple+Joie+Photo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/1617419552446-M2R8B3WGOGM3U1U0PXV4/k%2Bhancock%2Bevents.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/d7a95f50-f54a-4de9-a73d-c1b129e7fed4/Screenshot+2024-03-19+at+1.11.45+PM.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/d16819c6-bf92-4475-b9fe-57f5dc1376b0/Lily+and+Cane https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/49d1b6ae-cea8-487a-b971-4b03b9f69c91/Screenshot+2025-07-11+at+2.29.54%E2%80%AFPM.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/5b1857ba-fcc4-459c-ae44-99d7a078565f/Caroline+Reusen+Flowers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/1617419192560-UEPYUG33D1I8Y1OCHJAZ/Shantel%2Bof%2BShantilly%2BArtistry.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/1617418970391-VOLNG7OVCO3WYFG1OKHC/Analy%2Bof%2BAnaly%2BPhoto.jpg https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/directory-pnw daily 0.75 2024-03-19 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/about daily 0.75 2025-11-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/498e3715-2334-42a5-b701-303849d2f3c5/Jaime+Ta+Creative+Wedding+Planner WHO WE ARE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/f1edb027-fa0a-41f9-99e7-9d56c01f4eea/JK_headshots-14.jpg WHO WE ARE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/94164975-2784-4f2f-8701-107b25144539/20180521-213151.jpg WHO WE ARE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/618b35e9-934f-4680-ab01-877a0f8f1a04/Melodie.jpg WHO WE ARE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/c7a63147-ecfa-4bde-b516-b0487e766155/Nathan.jpg WHO WE ARE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/b09d2f79-b1d2-4c7f-ba14-14fc75d910e6/Screenshot+2025-03-28+at+11.40.25%E2%80%AFAM.png WHO WE ARE https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/resources daily 0.75 2025-02-07 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/join daily 0.75 2021-04-03 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/submit-a-feature daily 0.75 2024-03-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef4e8b4fc6f12771cc21eb1/1614887636670-TM1WTSYYPNEW8ON32O1Z/20201027-1515-45.jpg https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/new-directory-test daily 0.75 2025-02-26 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/new-directory-test-1 daily 0.75 2025-02-26 https://www.vendorsofcolor.com/become-a-member daily 0.75 2025-02-26
