What we’re about
Welcome to Melanin & Matrimony— a welcoming space for couples in the Raleigh area who are looking to build real connections, cultivate friendships, and share meaningful experiences together.
While we proudly center and celebrate LGBTQIA+ couples — especially Black queer love — our group is open to all couples who value inclusion, respect, and genuine community. Whether you’re queer, straight, married, dating, or parenting — if you and your partner enjoy being around other couples, this space is for you.
We’re looking for couples who:
💞 Prioritize healthy, supportive relationships
🎉 Enjoy spending intentional time with others
🌿 Want to grow friendships and network with like-minded people
👣 Are open to participating in group outings, activities, and conversations
👨👩👧👦 Are family-friendly (children are welcome when appropriate)
This isn’t just a meetup — it’s a chance to build a vibrant, inclusive community where couples can connect, have fun, and be themselves. If you're ready to engage, share space, and grow alongside other couples, we’d love to have you join us.
Let’s create something beautiful — together.
