This wedding vow renewal ceremony is radiating queer joy

We know that 25 years of marriage is a big deal for any couple, but for Amber and Rachel, it’s a true testament to growing together. When they got married 25 years ago, Amber and Rachel were celebrated as a cis-het couple. Since then, they’ve both come into their queerness, including Amber coming out as trans. They wanted to mark this huge milestone of 25 years with a queer wedding vow renewal ceremony, as their authentic selves, surrounded by their community.

A medley of songs inspired these wedding vows

These wedding vows inspired by musical lyrics would make the sweetest Spotify playlist! Remember the transgender lesbian wedding we featured a few weeks ago that had a PB&J unity sandwich? I mean, it’s kind of hard to forget something as classic as PB&J. Well, our Offbeat couple Cassandra and Evan really do go together like peanut butter and jelly. Just read their vows and all their musical references! What a duo.
