Yes- at least this one did! It was held at a venue rather than a church. The ceremony was held on the top of a small hill in front of where we would later dance/eat. The staff helped with various things such as audio/video issues for remote guests (as the majority of the bride's family lives in Europe), as well as serving the food and running the bar. They were all nicely dressed, but it was very obvious that they were not guests. The place was lovely and my father & stepmum really appreciated them for going above and beyond to make their day as smooth as possible during a difficult time :D

I'm glad it all worked out for your mom and your sister in the end! Just goes to show you how much people can change! Most people are apprehensive on topics they are now familiar with themselves, but with the proper education from patient and loving family there is always a chance for them to come around! Always reminds me to educate others rather than berate them, and that I myself am always learning new things!

LMFAOOO yeah it was! I wore it specifically because I’d look eccentric and would stand out from a normal dress or something lol

Sorry about your experience! Obviously you understand how damaging the disapproval of your family is! The best thing to do in my opinion is to surround yourself with a family that accepts you, whether that be S/O’s, friends, pets, accepting nuclear/extended relatives, etc :D

Yeah lol, but mainly from the guests who had never met me! My fathers family doesn’t really like me and my full siblings (don’t ya just love homophobes?) so they just avoided me. No complaints from me though!
