Our mission
Love is a Verb Events is a queer-owned company founded on the knowingness that community is essential and love must be lived through action. We understand that gathering is not neutral and taking and creating space is activism. We create every event with intentionality, impeccability, inclusivity and joy. We believe care is logistical as much as it is emotional. We are thoughtful in the details and bold in our vision.
We are on a mission to make community the foundation of every space we create. We know the world can function as a third place, a place where people meet, belong, organize, and celebrate, and where diversity and individuality are honored.
For us, an event is never just an event. It is a moment of collective empowerment.
Our VaLues
Action:
Love is not a passive emotion. Love is an action. We choose love through who we work with and who we work for. Every decision we make reflects what we care about and how we care.Community:
We see community as the remedy to today’s loneliness epidemic. Creating spaces where community can exist, grow, and be felt is at the heart of our mission.Inclusivity:
To love is to understand. There are many voices in this world that deserve more space and more visibility. For us, inclusivity is foundational, it informs every choice, every detail, every space we create.
Creativity:
We know the wedding and event industry can be rooted in normativity and tradition. We exist to reimagine it. We create experiences that feel fresh, exciting, and alive so people can truly see themselves reflected in them.Joy:
Queer joy is an act of resistance in itself. That is why joy is not an afterthought, it is a guiding force in everything we create. It is felt in the room, in the details, and in the freedom to fully be.
