Woodland creatures, wings, and magic abound at this faery-themed wedding
Amber and Red had a faery-themed wedding which allowed everyone to dress as woodland creatures or costumes of their choosing. It turned a normal wedding day into something truly magical.
Amber and Red met years ago through friends in San Luis Obispo, CA. Although they have now moved to the Pacific Northwest, San Luis Obispo is still one of their favorite places. They held the wedding there to honor it and share their love of the town. You’ll want to see the colors, glitter, and magic of this amazing wedding in California…
Why my spouse’s $20 wedding gift made me cry
The morning of our wedding, my fiance and I exchanged our wedding gifts. I gave my spouse-to-be an Apple watch; I received a $20 t-shirt. My eyes got watery when I saw the shirt, and I couldn’t help but cry. Fortunately, they were happy tears. For me, this t-shirt meant so much more than a fun shirt to wear on our honeymoon. It represented our shared struggles with gender identity… and that I was marrying the right partner for me.

Which states have gender neutral marriage certificates?
I’m non-binary, and she’s binary trans. Neither of us have done anything to medically or therapeutically transition and probably won’t be any time soon. We were both born and currently live in Tennessee, so even if we did medically transition, I’m pretty sure we’re out of luck when it comes to changing our birth certificates. It would be ideal to have a marriage license that uses gender neutral terms like “partner” or “spouse.”
Are there any states which have gender neutral marriage certificate language?
