In a display of faith in a big YES to a Yes Vote, I'm becoming a celebrant. That's right, Jonny's Pink Dollar Weddings are here to make all your gay wedding dreams come true.
A change in the ol' marriage law of 1962 will instigate huge cultural change - for the good, obvi - it will prove we aren't the backwards, backwater country some believe us to be. That we believe in equality and that people are just people, not more or less, though we still have a long way to go, it's a step in the right direction. And when it happens, it would be amazing if someone was already trained to take the wheel. I won't pretend I'll be the only gay Celebrant, so long as you don't pretend that I'm not the most fabulous.
On average, people spend over $700 on a celebrant, and most are pretty straight and stuffy. But it costs just shy of $3000 to do the training, register for a licence and get tose nuptials rolling. Young cool people don't have that kinda dough.
I need to crowdfund to do this. Like Tony and Malcolm threw it to the people, I'm going to as well. It would mean so much to me if you could help in supporting this.
I want to help my mates, new or old, queer or straight, have a fun and memorable wedding.
A Jonny's Pink Dollar Wedding.
