This is sort of a strange thread but it involves my first 'wedding' gift and a Du'er who made it
Edited on Thu Jul-12-07 02:41 PM by lionesspriyanka
yesterday lisa and i were talking and we were both kind of sad how our parents ignore our engagement. if i were straight, a huge huge wedding would be planned. I have been hearing about this large wedding of mine for years now. However since i am marrying a girl, this is off the table.

and ofcourse ny state will not allow us to get married.

all in all it was a very depressing conversation.


However today a du'er delighted me my making my first wedding present!!!


So i wanted to thank AllegroRondo for making my day!!! Here is the gift he made for me!!

1. Just because the state wont say you're married
doesnt mean you cant have nice wedding presents.

8. As far as I'm concerned
New York and 48 other states can go fuck themselves. They may be legally permitted — for now — to deny you the rights of a legally married couple, but they can't deny your commitment.

Marriage is the bonding of hearts and souls, gender notwithstanding. If you have that bond and want to say you're married, then married you are.

:hug: :hug:

And, Allegro — beautiful work. :thumbsup:

20. What a beautiful thing to do
and a beautiful necklace. Just because NY won't allow even a civil union, muchless marriage doesn't mean you can't have a ceremony. Cross the river to NJ. We still haven't reached the "marriage" stage, but we have passed a civil union law giving partners full rights and we are working towards the passage of a marriage law....soon I hope.

32. it is beautiful, AllegroRondo
sweet.

i don't think your thread is strange, lioness.

i realize it is no consolation for lack of family, but myself and countless more DUers wish you and Rockit the best,
and we'll be celebrating with you in spirit if not in person. :toast:
