Psyche & Legend’s colorful queer Burner campout wedding

Kathleen & Lucky’s traditional 1950s wedding

This pair is a self-described June and Ward Cleaver queer couple, which is just rad. The wedding itself mirrored this with its 1950s-style traditional vows and style. They also found time to sneak off during the reception for a little alone time, which was not missed by the hooting and hollering crowd.

Karen & Jennifer’s queer Hindu and vintage fashion wedding

While these two ladies had only expected a tiny ceremony, their friends and neighbors hijacked the day with the local media and well-wishers, a giant balloon arch, and a champagne lunch. Their son added some major adorable points with his violin, and one of their witnesses had me in tears with her infectious sobbing. Guh. I’ve never seen so many huge, permanent smiles.

A queertastic gothic Victorian celebration of love

Corsets, sword canes, cat cupcake toppers, and a stylin’ gender-neutral party of “wing people.” That’s the fun in store with this celebration of throwing caution and gender to the wind. Plus, there’s a heaping helping of gothic Victorian fashion.
