e’ve been big supporters of marriage equality ever since we founded the brand back in 1996. Last June, we were overjoyed when the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) was repealed, and cheered as each new state legalized same-sex marriage. Now we’re thrilled to bring you our second annual issue full of expert advice, insider fashion and décor tips, and the best real weddings from across the country. And, of course, as always you’ll still find loads of inspiration to help you plan in our national and regional magazines and on TheKnot .com. Then don’t forget to submit your photos to be a part of next year’s issue!
click these photos to see more gorgeous same-sex weddings—we’ve got 128 of ’em (and counting!) online
