Gay Married

As Republicans debate what to send gay island, my girlfriend and I are discussing what to use at our wedding tablecloths. My will-be-wife Susan is a designer and looking for something earthly, meets the lace, I am a child of immigrants, and I'm looking for something cheap is the cheapest.
Just to clarify for those of you who took my shot in the head by a Jonas Brother Pakistan: I am a girl. * Beyonce is my girl. We are gay married (or "g'married," if you want).
Since announcing our engagement a month ago, we had a series of hilariously clumsy reactions. My favorite is: "Oh, yes it's legal.".

Poughkeepsie when the governor says it's great. "

Have your wedding in the forest, underwater, on a Greek island ** - it's your turn. You do not like the idea of ​​walking down the aisle? Have your wedding at the end of a walkway. You want to be sure you and your partner are the most beautiful of the ceremony? Make the cheap wedding dresses code ill-fitting clothes of the 90s with a strict "no makeup" policy.
Hopefully, one day, our cohorts heterocoupled can enjoy the same freedoms that bask in the meantime, when his friend straight draws near, almost in tears, telling his mother-in-law went ahead and change the size of the bridal dress horrible girlfriend, ordered 5000 pink tablecloths, and invited all the generations of her sorority, reassuring smile and said, "It gets better." ...
