lesbian weddings

YAY, LESBIAN WEDDINGS! We celebrate all identities within the LGBT umbrella, including transgender weddings, gay weddings, and bisexuality, as well nonbinary and non-binary gender identity issues. If you want to talk fashion, darlings, be sure to check out our two brides, two dresses posts (for lesbian weddings where both partners wore gowns), and our bride in pants archive, which features lots of straight brides too, and SO MUCH non-dress wedding attire inspiration.

Love in the stacks: a literary engagement shoot with two cute brides-to-be

Love in the stacks: a literary engagement shoot with two cute brides-to-be

This beautiful pair of ladies both work for a big city public library system so a literature-themed engagement session was on the agenda. They added even more meaning to it by finding the perfect book store to match their intentions. Let’s hear from bride-to-be Amara on how she and her partner Ginny decided where and how to rock a bookish engagement session (all while juggling a photographer swap and the hurdles of planning a wedding as plus size, queer people!)…

Get ready to fall hard for this Jewish-Mexican wedding in Oxford, England

Get ready to fall hard for this Jewish-Mexican wedding in Oxford, England

I am a rabbi’s daughter from New York, while Anna grew up in Mexico City (we met in England in an aerial dance class, as one does). Rather than choosing one cultural tradition, we decided to do everything that was important to us.

Gianna and Erin met working as writers on the same TV show and their friendship blossomed into love. They didn’t want their wedding to feel like a wedding but rather just a fun party. Plus, they loved the old-timey feel of the space. 

Don’t miss Erin’s fab black and navy dress and Gianna’s suit that was once owned by Ellen Degeneres!

Churros, quiet moments, & a spiral aisle at this sunlit wedding in La Jolla

A jaw-dropping private estate overlooking the Pacific made for a magical backdrop for these two gorgeous women to marry. Alissa and Maria brought tons of amazing details and intention to their wedding in the hills of La Jolla, CA. From their creative spiral ceremony setup to their bold color palette to their literal tying of the knot, we couldn’t love this one more.
