Modern Traditions brings author Ott Palladino's expertise as the founder and editorial director of the world's leading online resource for LGBTQ wedding planning to the page. Ott Palladino walks readers through every step of the notoriously costly and arduous planning process with wisdom and accessibility.

The author importantly includes an accurate picture of wedding budgets for couples from all backgrounds, and shares her invaluable insider tips for making the most of each vendor; she also addresses fashion advice specific for LGBTQ readers, such as suiting up a transmasculine person or attending fittings as a butch lesbian or a pre-transition transgender woman.
