POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

I’ve been sitting with this one.

Coming down from what was genuinely the happiest week of our lives, I’ve realized how lucky I am to live inside a bubble filled with love. My husband and I are surrounded by family, friends and a community that celebrates us exactly as we are. Sometimes I forget just how much of a privilege that is.

Then my mom proudly shared photos from her son’s wedding on Facebook. Her post went viral. And alongside so much love came this.

It was a reality check I didn’t expect, but maybe one I needed.

Because this isn’t really about us or our wedding. We are fortunate enough to have a circle that makes us feel safe, supported and celebrated. This is about everyone who doesn’t.

The queer kid reading comments like these. LGBTQIA+ people who still don’t feel safe living openly. Minorities and marginalized communities who are made to feel less than because of who they are. And anyone who has ever been judged, excluded or made to feel like they don’t belong.

I’ll admit that being comfortable inside my own bubble has sometimes allowed me to be quieter than I should be. This reminded me that having a safe space shouldn’t mean staying silent outside of it.

We have to stand up for one another, especially when the hate isn’t directed at us.

This isn’t about left or right. It’s about how we choose to treat other human beings. Speak up. Be louder about love. Stand beside people experiencing adversity. Defend people’s right to exist, love and live authentically, even when their experience looks nothing like your own.

To anyone who has ever been made to feel like they need to shrink themselves to make someone else more comfortable: there are people standing with you. I want to make sure I’m one of them, loudly.

Love still wins. Every single time. ♾️

A year ago today, April 25th — the perfect date. Not too hot, not too cold…

Just us at the courthouse ♾️

With everything going on in the world, we knew it was the right decision for our future to make it official sooner rather than later.

Locked in & counting down to the real celebration… 133 days ♡
