I'm getting married to my wonderful girlfriend in 2017 and wondered if anyone has any ideas/experience for organising a same-sex wedding? Thank you! Xx

Plan the wedding exactly the saame as you would if it were a wedding with a bride and groom. I am sure you want all of the same things. I went to a same sex wedding last year, they both wore dresses and had ordered the wooden signs sayng mrs and mrs lol do what feels right for you xx

Sounds great but you ladies gonna confuse me with your forum names! Lol
Are you both going to wear dresses? That would be amazing! And would they be the same or different? Hope you don't mind me asking! I've never been to a same sex marriage ceremony, so wouldn't have a clue, but i bet it would be amazing just like any other wedding. Love the idea of a Mrs & Mrs sign haha. Do you both have engagement rings? Are you both going to have a bouquet? So many questions! I want an invite haha! I know it will be stunning tho :D xx

Just plan it like a bride and groom would; I love the idea of the Mrs and Mrs sign :D Just check that the venues that you are looking into are licenced to do same sex marriages as some aren't which I think they all should be.
Met in 2009
Got together on12th May 2011, proposed on the 12th May 2013
When you get knocked down; smile and pick yourself up again!

We're planning ares just like a normal wedding, we get married. In 2015. If you need any help feel free to message us xx Good luck

Yeah the same as a normal wedding I would think, the only bit I can't imagine is who would walk down the isle, although I guess you both would. If it was a big place you could walk down opposite sides? I can picture an outdoors wedding now with you both coming in from different angles.
Also dresses do you know what each other has, or is it a complete mystery?

I've seen a rainbow theme at a same sex wedding before and it looked awesome!
When we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours
we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying
weirdness and call it love, true love.
