Three months have passed since I have been in my new job, so many new wonderful changes, new car, new house, soon-to-be-new-wife, soon-to-be-new-mother-in-law, all good changes.
Arranging a gay wedding is stressful, personally I think its for more stressful than organising a straight wedding!
1. Father of the bride paying? which father or which bride pays for the wedding? ...erm generally they dont pay at all the brides pay for themselves!
2. The person marrying us? well you would be surprised how hard it is to find a non-nominational, non-religious person to marry a non-practicing jew and a non-practicing christian! the Rabbi will marry 2 gay jews and the priest will marry 2 gay christians, lets not even talk about the pagens who will not marry a jew and a christian who do not fully practice paganism!
3. The gifts? well we have been living together for 2 years and have established our home, we not need more toasters, towls and crockery - give us vouchers or money by all means!
4. The guest list? why do people think that this is a gay birthday party, jeez people its a fully paid for wedding what part of "you are not allowed to bring any old date that we havent met" do you not understand!
5.Family? aaaah family, I wish I was able to choose my family. I am not sure why a same-sex wedding would cause such incredible animosity but lets not go there.
Straight people have it good when organsing a wedding!
