We are a LGBTQ+ -friendly wedding vendor

Diana Foley Photographer Long before meeting Evan at Plattsburgh, Diana has been an avid photographer for over ten years and in Vermont alone, has led to endorsements and mentions from Vermont Bride Magazine and Adirondack Weddings Magazine. Her work has also appeared in TV commercials, most notably The Capitol Plaza in Montpelier across from the statehouse.

Evan Foley DJ Although his DJ career started in high school, he pursued his field at SUNY Plattsburgh and graduated in Audio/Radio Digital Media Production, followed soon after with a Masters Degree in Administration and Leadership. Despite his education, Foley credits his true credentials to his comprehensive experience on the wedding circuit. Foley believes strongly in the practice of good ethics and communication as well as paying attention to the individual needs of each particular person. When not working Diana and Evan love traveling and exploring new places with their two kids Alex and Joan, who may themselves take on in their parents footsteps one day.

When you choose Foley Weddings, you support a small Vermont family business, owned and operated exclusively by our family. Your decision also builds opportunities for our children to one day possibly follow in our footsteps. As other companies focus on how to accrue trainees and build their team to take on as many events as possible, our team will always stay within our household, approaching your event with a more singular, honed focus. This will remain our primary asset in helping our children have the option to prosperously enter the Vermont wedding industry one day.

OUR VALUES

Our values are not a marketing strategy. They are not a means of saving face to win absolutely everyone over. They guide how we treat people, how we conduct business, and how we show up in our communities.

We recognize that we may not agree with every person who visits our website, and that’s okay. What matters to us is that every client, guest, family member, and vendor is treated with dignity, respect, and basic human decency.

You Belong Here

Whether you’re a born-and-raised Vermonter, recently moved to New England, traveled from across the country, or arrived from somewhere else in the world entirely, you belong here.

We welcome people of all backgrounds, races, ethnicities, religions, national origins, gender identities, sexual orientations, family structures, and abilities. Your story is your own, and it deserves respect.

Genders Are Equal

We believe that men and women are equal in worth, opportunity, and dignity. We also recognize and respect people whose identities fall outside traditional expectations.

Everyone deserves to be heard, valued, and treated fairly. We strive to create an environment where people can participate fully without being diminished, dismissed, or stereotyped. We feel gender roles have lost the plot. What good is ‘masculinity’ when it leaves holes in the drywall?

Fear Creates Hate

Fear often thrives where understanding is absent. Throughout history, communities have become stronger when people chose curiosity over suspicion, conversation over assumption, and empathy over division.

We believe that most people want the same basic things: safety, belonging, opportunity, and the freedom to live authentic lives. When we take the time to understand one another, fear loses its power.

LGBTQ+ Friendly and Proud

Our family includes LGBTQ+ people, and we are proud to operate a business that openly welcomes the LGBTQ+ community.

Whether you’re celebrating a wedding, planning an event, hiring a service, or simply reaching out with questions, you can expect to be treated with respect and without judgment.

Community Over Division

We believe strong communities are built when neighbors look out for one another, even when they disagree. Kindness, honesty, accountability, and compassion are values that transcend politics.

Our goal is simple: to create experiences where people feel welcome, respected, and able to be themselves.
