Kitten and Lou’s drag king weds burlesque queen extravaganza
Susanna and Ricki, aka Kitten and Lou, are a drag king and a burlesque queen in lurve. After meeting on stage and falling in love while performing in an Atomic Bombshells revue, they have become the world’s showbusiest couple. Since Washington passed Referendum 74, they knew it was time to get hitched… in some serious style. A little camp, a lot of glam, and a hell of a lot of performances, it is a confetti and balloon-festooned show not to be missed.
Shiny happy wedding feels (and matching ties!) at this art gallery wedding
Stephen and Tavo’s May 4th (Star Wars Day!) wedding was a fabulous garden party among glowing fairy lights and leaf green decor at Artspace 111, a warehouse-turned-art-gallery in Fort Worth, Texas. With matching ties, personalized chalk for guest book messages, and foodie-style centerpieces (ARTICHOKE!), these two are made of hugs and win. Don’t miss the first dance dip!
Gay Marriage is now legal in the UK, but should we stick with the civil partnership?
Gay marriage has just been made legal in the UK. Prior to this, gay and lesbian couples could only have a civil partnership but not be married. All the civil partnership ceremonies I have been to were weddings in all but petty legal technicality and in each case the registrar performing them did so exactly in the spirit of their being weddings. I am due to be civilly partnered (rolls of the tongue doesn’t it?) to my female partner next year. When we booked our civil partnership this year, gay marriage was not legal. Now that they are, what should we choose?
Violins, serenades, and sweet moments at this Florida wedding
Jo and Sarah’s bit of vintage glamour, laid-back style, epic ink, and sweet little setting set the stage for this wedding in Jacksonville, Florida. Their venue, the Mandarin Community Club, used to be the Freedom School built and founded by Harriet Beecher Stowe. As a surprise for Sarah, Jo sang “To Make You Feel My Love” for the last dance of the night.
