Oooh, good music would DEFINITELY be important to me. In that I would want the wedding to be an awesome party. And good music is a huge part of that.
Good dress would be key in that pictures are a part of remembering a good party, and I would want to look awesome, so I would want clothes that make me look awesome. Etc etc.
I know a gay man and a lesbian who are married, but...they're really kinky freaky and I just don't even want to know. Except in how I already know too much (and they have plenty of sex with other people too. See "already know too much").
yeah, my brother knows a couple - woman identifies herself as a lesbian, man as a gay man, and they'll tell you they stayed together because the sex is so good. I just say huh alot when they come up in conversation, or the few times I've met them.
I know a couple like that too. Well, I know the wife, not the husband (as in, she's a old friend, he's the guy she married when she moved to NY). I've often wanted to ask her why she sees herself as a lesbian not bisexual but I have never had the nerve. I'm guessing it has to do with the fact that, for her, being a lesbian is her identity, and the actual sex of her sexual object is quite secondary to that. Whereas for me, being a woman would be how I'd define my identity.
While I don't think the dress would be the most important thing on my list by a mile, I'd certainly be open to doing what it took to get a dress in the style I like, even if it's not the perfect dress.
I knew a gay man/lesbian couple too. They never owned up to being gay, but since they were still sleeping with their own gender it didn't take too much math. The husband did give the wife an inscribed copy of Joy of Sex, and I always wish I hadn't read it.
The inscription, not the book.
Is this building design the most awesome ever? The blogger thinks not: Pixel building looks like it needs more time to render
The blogger seems to like it:
I sure would love to see something this fantastical and different pop up in a city
I kind of love that peacock dress.
SWINTON should wear it. Only formless and with some random thing on the shoulder.
I worried more about the location and comfort of my guests, because the age range was about 2 to 80, and I made them schlep a long way to see me married.
It was pretty fabulous! It remains the most awesome wedding location in the world!

Well, the blogger would like to see it, even if it looks like it's not done. So... well, it made sense in my head, anyway.
This is pretty cool--Weeks of Wooing First Lady Pay Off for a New University:
SAN FRANCISCO — Michelle Obama has chosen the University of California, Merced, the smallest, newest campus in a state system that includes heavyweights like U.C.L.A., as her sole stop on the college commencement circuit.
The decision, announced by the university on Friday, came after weeks of online and old-school arm-twisting by a coterie of seniors in the first full class to graduate from the university, which was established in 2005.
One senior, Yaasha Sabbaghian, 22, said efforts included enlisting the help of Prof. Charles J. Ogletree of Harvard, a Merced native who is a friend of the Obamas, as well as sending hundreds of handwritten letters and Valentine’s Day cards.
“We laid on the charm,” said Mr. Sabbaghian, a biology student.
A spokeswoman for Mrs. Obama said the first lady was “very touched” by the campaign, particularly a “Dear Michelle” Facebook campaign, whose site on Friday carried an ecstatic message — “!!! We did it !!!”
University officials said they expected the May 16 speech to be a boon for the institution, whose 100-acre campus was built on a former cattle ranch and initially had trouble attracting students. Enrollment grew to about 2,700 students this year.
Mr. Sabbaghian said he hoped Mrs. Obama would bring an inspirational message for the students in Merced, a Central Valley city that has suffered from mass foreclosures and high unemployment. And if she wanted to bring friends, he said, that would be O.K., too.
“A lot of people said, ‘Why don’t you try to get the president?’ and our first answer was we want him to fix the economy,” Mr. Sabbaghian said. “But we’d love him to come and introduce her.”
It looks like someone upended a kid's clear plastic LEGO set to me.

I'm familiar with the concept of culturally gay heterosexuals from theatre, maybe they're just culturally gay bisexuals?
