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.

Two ladies finally celebrate 20 years with a garden wedding in Utah

The Red Butte Garden in Salt Lake City was the garden backdrop to this “big gay wedding.” They included their three children into all aspects of the day with movie soundtracks, a kids’ table, glow sticks, and more. Other highlights included their gourmet grilled cheese bar, ice sculptures (with the couple as Minions!), a LEGO cake for the kids, a cake inspired by album cover art, and loads of succulents.

My family doesn’t approve of my wedding

I have known since the day that I came out that my parents would not be attending my wedding, nor any of my six siblings and aunts and uncles. I have been forbidden from telling my last living grandparent to “preserve her health.” How can I share in the excitement of planning when my wedding feels like the final nail in the coffin of my relationships with my family?

Some of the wedding party wore navy dresses, while three rocked grey dress pants with suspenders and kick-ass superhero bow ties. Kace is a major superhero fan so keep an eye out for all those details, including the cake!
