Nice Day for a White Wedding

[dotinthesky]

Ever since Sissy Jen's wedding a month ago, I've been wondering what it would be like to marry Kevin. What kind of ceremony would we hold? Would it be a big affair? A small event? And what exactly do gay couples do when they get married? I have never been to a gay ceremony so I was struggling to come up with theoretical ideas.

That is, until a colleague of mine sent me the photos below from an acquaintance's wedding.

These have made me feel really inspired and now I'm looking forward to the day when Kevin and I can be joined in matrimony under the eyes of God, our family and friends. Now I just need to figure out a way to get the money for it!

Oh my god, I'm all teary at the thought! You would look so beautiful in that dress, and Kevin would look so handsome in his orange accessories (or, y'know, the other way round, it's really up to you two; hell, how about both wearing the dress, but with an orange cravat-and-hanky combo thrown in for good measure?)

I'm a little confused by the number of apparent brides in those pictures, but whatever makes them happy. Please may I be a bridesmaid, i those exact orange-sherbert dresses? Please? It's such a stunningly flattering colour, I just know I'd look gorgeous (although not gorgeous enough to outshine you and Kevin, obviously!).

More seriously, the only same-sex wedding celebration I've been to so far involved tours round Hackney in a pink stretch limo full of lesbians of a certain age. But that's a bit passé, you should do something different, I think.

Oooooooh! *bursts into tears* Why didn't I think of THAT for my wedding?!? Doncha know you're not supposed to show a bride a dress more beautiful than her's after her wedding! So jealous. My wedding seems like a pathetic shallow sham now.

I am afraid I will not be attending your wedding. God would never support a union formed amidst such a horrific lack of fashion sense.

I want to be in it! I'd like to wear Lime Green to contrast with the lovely orange...could we all dance in like the "Forever" wedding party but to something by Queen...say, Bohemian Rhapsody?!

I'm sorry, but upon viewing these photos all I could imagine is that this ceremony is a prelude to a filthy troika porno. It's the blonde's fault, really. I mean, that dress...

Wow, fantastic.

I love the one where the bridesmaid appears to be groping the bride's breast. That's classy.
