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.

Our heads asploded over Ali & Olivia’s fairy tale wedding with pop-up centerpieces and rainbow cake

The pop-up centerpieces alone are click-worthy, but just wait until you see the brides’ outfits, five-tiered rainbow cake, fairy flower girls, gondola ride to the ceremony, and illustrated program. This wedding has so many amazing details that our heads asploded. Oh, and don’t miss the amazing flipbook photo booth favors. We get to see them in action!

How we’re talking to religious guests unsure if they want to attend our lesbian wedding

Now, you and I both know that it’s the same as any other wedding (or as different as every other wedding, as the case may be). But within our community, it’s kind of a rare thing. I mean, this will be MY first two-bride wedding! We have specific people who have issues with our relationship for religious reasons and I wanted to offer a non-confrontational way to talk about that subject and maybe squeeze out a few “yeses” from those who are on the fence.
