Not too many weddings I've shot come with a title.
Sean and Andre, however, appropriately named theirs "The Big Gay Wedding" and it caught on like wildfire.
Their guests came from far and wide to help celebrate. Sean's family, including his 87-year-old grandmother, joined them from England. There were guests from Australia, China, and all across Canada.
The wedding itself was beautiful, and the reception, which was held at Halifax's historic Pier 21, was an event in itself.
On a more serious note, Sean and Andre did not get to this point without fighting many battles that most of us do not have to face. I have a friend who has been with his partner for almost as long as I have been alive, yet they can not be recognized legally as spouses. Without getting political, that seems a little sad to me, especially having watched Sean and Andre gather with their family and friends to celebrate the beautiful union they have created.
Maybe someday EVERYONE will be able to marry the one they love.

"My Boys" It was an amazing moving day. It was wonderful to have family & all their good friends to join in their happiness. A great time was had by "all". Yes all people should have the right to have their own special day.
