Who We Are
Elyse & Sunni
Joy seekers at heart, we launched Modern Aisles after a magical trip to Amsterdam, because of our shared love for celebration and community. Those who know us know that we prioritize joy, celebration and play in our partnership.
As a Queer and Native-owned business, we bring this same energy to meet the needs of couples and clients who haven’t historically been centered by the wedding and event industry.
