    Hi Hive!

    I posted on an older post for same-sex couples last week- but it seems to be pretty dead!

    So I'm posting again!

    I'm an avid wedding bee reader, wedding-blog stalker, and one bride in a two-bride wedding and I've recently begun blogging about our awesome wedding!

    I hope you'll join me in our wedding adventure:

    http://www.msawesome.com

    And I hope to see more gay bloggers around the hive in the future! 

    xoxo

    ms. awesome- I LOVE your dress! I'm also on the hunt for the perfect short white dress.

    I'm also a proud bride in a fabulously gay wedding! (my partner has a pretty fluid gender identity, so the phrase "two bride wedding" isn't entirely representative of us). I've been stalking Weddingbee for almost a month now since my partner & I have finally committed to picking a date/venue and planning the most amazing, non-traditional ceremony/party/shindig that we can imagine. What also makes our wedding even more non-traditional is that my partner is Thai and buddhist, so we'll be incorporating a lot of multicultural elements into our wedding on top of the whole "super gay" thing.

    I'm definitely going to follow your blog, and let me know if you have any other gay wedding blog recomendations! As for me, I promised my partner that I wouldn't blog until after I take the bar exam in February.... she knows me so well, I could easily waste hours and hours of my day on Weddingbee AND blogging on my own blog....

    Happy planning, everyone!

    um, your halloween costumes were AWESOME. i am truly impressed.  and as for the dresses, LOVE THEM.  i so want to do short as well, but i might be having to make other people happier by going traditional.  barf.  is the one you purchased already (the first pic) bcbg?  i like :)

    Yay! Thanks for all the love. 

    @missmary: I think that a blog post about other "gay" or just fabulous blogs is in order. And I'm looking forward to yours post-bar of course. gotta keep the lady happy! lol. (and yourself sane I imagine)

    @sunshine bride: thanks- we had a lot of fun with our last minute halloween costumes, and yes, the dress I already purchased is the short BCBG one.  Yesterday we went and tried on a bunch of vintage dresses though, so we'll see...maybe you too can be a short dress bride and change post-ceremony to keep everyone happy??

    I'm a Bee who is part of a same-sex couple!  My wife and I were just married last month.  You can check out our wedding site at this link.

    Oh, and I just posted a comment on your blog, which got moderated.  Funny, I'd never thought of myself as moderate.  ;-)

    It's nice to see same sex wedding posts.  My partner and I are tying the knot in August, and are so excited.  I have to say how nice it is to see other couples like us posting their wedding planning experience.  We were hoping to get married in NY, but now that that is out of the window, thanks to our lovely Senate (sense my sarcasm), we have to go to Connecticut to get married.  Ah, well.  Just wanted to say thank you for the acknowledgement.

    My fiancee and I are having a ceremony (with no legal binding because we live in Texas, although I still tell people we are getting married, but that's just semantics) in March.  And in good queer fashion, we're honeymooning it in San Francisco.  Yay! I haven't had a chance to check out your blog, Ms. Awesome, but I'll definitely do so from all the good words here.

    I agree with posters before - your blog is AWESOME! I definitely just got stuck on it for longer than is probably prudent (while sitting at work). Some of your posts made me laugh and one in particular almost made me cry at work (the WB posting convo). I agree that it's easier for people to 'lump' LGTB folks into one scary title, but it's much harder to do that when you *know* someone that fits the title. They have a life, a soul, a heart and all the things that make us human and one kind. Kudos to you for blogging your experiences – I hope it gives a face to some who haven’t had the privilege of some of the friendships that I've had.

    I'm excited to read more about you all and your wedding!!

    Congrats to you two!

    (And while I’m straight, how can anyone NOT love two wedding dresses in a wedding?!?! Seriously! Laughing)
