Weddings for Same Sex Couples

Weddings for Same Sex Couples

When you select Weddings Roatan, you can expect to be welcomed by everyone. We stand up for equality and, of course, love. For same-sex couples, planning a wedding can feel like unknown territory even if you’ve been personally planning your dream wedding for decades. Navigating a wedding industry that has historically catered to only one variety of union creates a unique set of challenges for LGBTQ+ couples.

We may still have a long way to go in marriage equality, but there’s no denying that we have made some serious changes. A victory for love, same-sex weddings are currently legally recognized in 29 countries and territories.

To help you feel confident we’ve assembled a few of the most frequent questions we hear about same-sex weddings. If you’re gay, lesbian, trans, or any combination of the multitude of possibilities, we hope you find these helpful.

Since there aren’t traditional bride-groom roles in a same-sex wedding, how do we decide whose parents pay for what?

Today, many couples of all stype are footing the bill themselves. Still, bankrolling the wedding often comes down to who can afford it, and it’s lovely when parents want to help too.

What’s a good way to make sure vendors are okay doing a gay wedding?

Once you see someone’s work that speaks to your sensibilities, simply let them know yours is a gay wedding and ask them directly if they’re ok with that.

What should my partner and I wear?

Fashion is all about personal style, so wear what you want and what you’re each comfortable in, be it a classic suit-and-gown combo, double tuxes, or double gowns.
