We talk a lot on this podcast about diversity and how the wedding industry is still very slow to represent couples that aren\'t straight, white, heterosexual and able-bodied.\\xa0

In this episode I chat with Ofe from Studio Oudizo who, aside from being the creative force behind this stunning wedding stationary / calligraphy business, has set up Noire Wedding Edit.\\xa0

Noire Wedding Edit showcases black-owned wedding businesses, many of whom still struggle to be recognised and promoted in a white-dominated industry. In addition to providing a platform for black owned businesses, Noire Wedding Edit also enables black couples and couples of colour to see themselves represented in wedding media and enable them to access the vast amount of options, vendors and inspiration available to them as they plan their wedding. \\xa0However, it\'s also important to point out that these fantastic black owned businesses can provide their services ot all couples planning their special day.\\xa0

Please take a look a Ofe\'s work and platforms below.
