Aisle Less Traveled

I am aware of how busy you are, and the fact that you are currently occupying your time here when you could be in the middle of watching another episode of Buffy makes me want to make this wedding decision simpler for you. (It is, after all, what my job entails.) It's possible that you should hire me as your wedding planner if... You believe that everyone, regardless of their sexual orientation, race, gender identity, religion, ability, or body size, deserves love and the opportunity to marry the person they've found it with. You also believe that this right should be universal. You are deciding not to let the wedding industry or societal norms dictate the manner in which you celebrate your love for one another. You are using a feminist perspective to analyze patriarchal marriage customs, and you are giving careful thought to what aspects to incorporate and how to modify them to meet your needs. Even if it causes people to say things like, "if you don't do X, it's not a real wedding," your wedding might be considered unconventional because you're making choices that are right for you. This is the case even if those choices cause people to say things like. You want your wedding to put something good back into the world.
