Queer Woodland Dungeons and Dragons Camping Trip Wedding on Offbeat Wed 31

Queer Woodland Dungeons and Dragons Camping Trip Wedding

Rad and I met at probably the least romantic environment possible – working at the county Coroner’s office when we were both death investigators. After about a year of scene responses and autopsies (super romantic, I know), we were dating.

courtney and ester cat tattoo churros 73

This deliciously offbeat couple went for wedding churros and popsicles

We wanted to be really intentional about how we approached wedding traditions. We kept what we wanted, and left what we didn’t! For instance: as a masculine woman, Ester wanted to experience some of the groom-ish parts of wedding traditions, like seeing her future wife come down the aisle. Also, since neither of us like cake, we had wedding popsicles and wedding churros instead!
