5 offbeat marriages that may need a lawyer
Look, I know what you’re thinking, because I’m a lawyer when I’m not being a bride and I hear it all the time. Seeing a lawyer isn’t like a cake tasting or interviewing a band. It’s not fun. But if your offbeat family fits one of these five categories, you’ll want a consultation with an attorney licensed in your state ASAP, not after you start getting RSVPs.
Erin & Jay’s queer Jewish Dominican wedding
This pair has an awesomely diverse community willing to celebrate and totally donate their time and energy into making this wedding rock. And boy, did it. In addition to the bride’s handmade dress (out of a sari!) and groom’s kick-ass suit, there was wedding party aisle dancing, ukulele toasts, and a giant group hug right after the ceremony.
Amanda & Kaleb’s tattooed lakeside wedding
A wedding planning bride, heartfelt vows, a gorgeous lakeside ceremony, and a dessert buffet that will make you hungry: this wedding is a feast for the eyes. Even with a budget, they knew how to prioritize what matters to them. Oh, and definitely check out the bridesmaids in boots! So adorable.
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.
