The underlying mechanisms of sexual minority women's (SMW's) numerous physical and mental health disparities compared to heterosexual women are not well understood. The contribution of relationship factors is particularly understudied; few studies collect data from both same-sex female partners. Further, most research among SMW is cross sectional which limits our understanding of day-to-day experiences of same-sex women's couples. This paper aimed to describe the feasibility of recruiting a large sample of SMW and their female partners for a disparity-focused daily diary study investigating alcohol use and mental health. A firm specializing in sexual minority market research was enlisted to help with recruitment from multiple sources and conducted an initial pre-screening of SMW and their female partners, at least one of whom drank alcohol regularly. A total of 4182 individuals completed the pre-screener, with information for 930 individuals (465 couples) being sent to the research team. From this, 376 individuals (188 couples) completed the study screener, met the inclusion criteria, and were invited to participate. Ultimately, 326 individuals (163 couples) consented and completed baseline. A total of 321 individuals, from 162 couples, began the daily diary portion of the study. Compliance with study procedures was excellent. The use of multiple recruitment sources increased the diversity of the sample. Challenges to recruitment, changes in protocol, and characteristics of the final sample are discussed.
