I love all the goodies over at Wedding Chicks but this bag definitely caught my eye following my my blog post from last week.

Love is love is love.

More than half my life I've had the pleasure of having a third brother, not by blood but certainly by love. He is one of the most loving and generous people I know. He is the godfather to my son and much to the dismay of my other siblings is his favorite uncle.

I was thrilled to witness as it became official in the eyes of the law, at least in New York State. I was honored to be a witness as my brothers, one by blood and the other by love were able to be married.

I help plan and style so many weddings every year but this simple ceremony in the courthouse surrounded by the closest family and friends was by far the most meaningful. Now the law recognizes what I've known for the last 22 years, love is love is love.

Same Sex Marriage passes in New York

The first thing I said when I heard the news was "Finally!".

I honestly have never been able to see the other point of view on this issue. Without getting either political or religious here, I really have tried to be able to see why some have such strong feelings against same sex marriage.

Why shouldn't two people who are in a committed, loving relationship have the right to marriage, have it legally recognized and share in the same rights as any heterosexual couple?

Well now they can...at least in New York and five other states. I'm so thrilled and look forward to working with even more couples celebrate their love.
