My talented wife and I have been together for more than six years, but it wasn’t until we got engaged in 2008, after four years together, that we noticed the lack of gay couples in high-quality national wedding magazines. Well, that just wasn’t going to work for us. We simply couldn’t stand for it. So what do you do when there’s a need? You fill it. That’s what we’ve done with Equally Wed, the nation’s premier online same-sex wedding magazine, which launched in late March this year.
Tonight we’re celebrating our launch and marriage equality, thanks to the generosity of many businesses and individuals, namely AltoRex Rooftop Lounge, Pacci Ristorante, Adaptation Floral Design, Highland Bakery, Meryl Arnett, Caren West, Jamie Annarino, Hannah Huffines Amick, Kelly Norris and Tucker Berta.
Please join us as we celebrate the launch of Equally Wed, the nation’s premier same-sex wedding magazine headquartered in Atlanta, and say “I do” to marriage equality with complimentary signature cocktails, hors d’oeuvres from Pacci Ristorante and fabulous prizes from Atlanta’s top restaurants and businesses with a charitable raffle benefiting Georgia Equality.
WHEN: Thursday, June 24, 2010 | 7 to 10 p.m.
WHERE: AltoRex Rooftop Lounge at the Hotel Palomar, 866 West Peachtree St.
Our emcee for the evening is the fabulous host Tom Sullivan at www.HostandEmcee.com!
RSVP to rsvp@equallywed.com or on our Facebook event page.
*Complimentary valet – validate your parking ticket at the hostess stand at the base of the stairs.*
You needn’t be engaged or gay to enjoy this fabulous soiree!
All proceeds from the sales of raffle tickets will benefit Georgia Equality.
Raffle tickets will be sold throughout the party for $1. Super easy to buy a handful or more and increase your chances of winning big, while also supporting one of Georgia’s leading gay-rights organizations.
The Mrs. and I wish there was some way we could swoop into Atlanta tonight for the event. We’re sure it’s going to be a smashing success, just like the magazine. Much love to you and Maria!
