Have to be honest...

Original post by KellyS15

that I have been on this website for some time now and I feel that I have been holding back. I love the advice and ideas that I get on this site but have been afraid to share much about my wedding because it is 'untraditional' and some people may not agree with it. But, I feel that I must get it out. I am a lesbian and I am having a commitment ceremony. But at the same time it is exactly like a 'traditional' wedding in every sense but that I am marrying a girl not a guy.
I am very 'girlie' and have always dreamed of the fairytale wedding. Luckily I have come into contact with numerous vendors that have been open and accepting of my situation. I think that I would have been devastated if I could not have the wedding of my dreams.
I hope that I am not offending anyone and that I will still be a welcome member on the boards, but I just felt that I was almost lying when I came on here and wanted to be truthful! Thanks!! And best wishes to you all and good luck with your weddings. From what I have seen, everyone is going to have the day every little girl dreams of!

Don't even worry about it! I don't think anyone would ever discriminate against you openly about that (I can't say for sure what people think but I'd like to hope they don't think those things). But I know everyone here is great and very accepting.

Good luck and congrats-- a wedding is a wedding no matter who is being married! Sometimes I wish I was marrying a woman LOL b/c men can really be a pain in the azz!!

Happy planning

I love your last sentence
