What is this blog all about?

It is often said that every little girl grows up dreaming about her wedding day. Perhaps there is some truth to that. But what if that little girl is a tomboy, or a jock, or a lesbian, or a boy? When we grow up, how do we make our dreams a reality?

As queer folks, we are continually redefining marriage and family. With that comes redefining weddings and style. Imagine your wedding. What would you wear? What did you wear? Where would you shop for it? How do you find the perfect outfit when you don't fit into a tidy little box? Please send me your thoughts and pictures so we can create a resource for all the queer folks out there who don't know what to wear to their weddings.

Click on the link to see a lovely photo of Chely Wright when she married Lauren Blitzer in Connecticut.  Don't they look great?  We met Chely's Dad at the NCLR Gala this year when he was presented with an award.  He's a really sweet man and a supportive father.

The New Yorker Cover for July 25, 2011

In honor of New York holding the first legal same-sex weddings starting this Sunday.  They had a lottery in New York City to see who would be able to get married on that first historic day.  They are bringing in extra officiants and staying open late to fit in as many couples as possible.

Today is the first day couples can apply for a civil union in Illinois.  It's progress, but not marriage.  What do you think?
