They got engaged a year after they started dating, around Valentine&#8217;s Day 2014. This couple made history by becoming one of the first same-sex couples to get married in Alabama!\u00a0FROM THE PHOTOGRAPHER:\u00a0Brett and Eric share a beautiful love story. Because Alabama didn&#8217;t recognize same sex marriages at the time, their plan was to elope to NYC and have a small get-together with close friends and family later. Luckily for them and so many other couples, Alabama&#8217;s laws changed, and so did their plans! They applied for their marriage license the first day same-sex couples could on February 9th and planned on getting married four days later, that Friday the 13th!&nbsp;#ftg-1717 .tile .icon { color:#ffffff; }#ftg-1717 .ftg-items .loading-bar i { background:#fff; }#ftg-1717 .ftg-items .loading-bar { background:#fff; }#ftg-1717 .tile .icon { font-size:12px; }#ftg-1717 .tile .icon { margin: -6px 0 0 -6px; }#ftg-1717 .tile .caption-block .text-wrapper span.text { font-size:12px; }#ftg-1717 .tile .caption-block .text-wrapper span.title { font-size:14px; }#ftg-1717 .tile { background-color: transparent; }#ftg-1717 .tile .caption-block .text-wrapper span.text { color: #ffffff; }#ftg-1717 .tile .caption-block .text-wrapper span.title { color: #ffffff; }#ftg-1717 .tile .ftg-social a { color: #ffffff; }#ftg-1717 .tile .caption-block { transition-timing-function:linear; }#ftg-1717 .tile .caption-block { transition-duration:0.25s; }#ftg-1717 .tile .tile-inner:before { background-color: #000000; }#ftg-1717 .tile .tile-inner:before { background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8); }#ftg-1717 .tile.ftg-preload { transform: scaleY(1) scaleX(1) translate(0px,0px) rotateX(0deg) rotateY(0deg); }#ftg-1717 .tile.ftg-preload { transition: all ease-out 0.5s, opacity linear 0.5s; }#ftg-1717 .tile img.item { transition-duration: 0.25s; }jQuery('#ftg-1717 img.item').removeAttr('src');jQuery(document).ready(function () {setTimeout(function () {jQuery('#ftg-1717').finalTilesGallery({minTileWidth: 250,margin: 10,loadMethod: 'sequential',nonce: '5a66d1c7c7',galleryId: '17',setupFilters: true,layout: 'final',debug: false,gridSize: 25,disableGridSizeBelow: 800,allowEnlargement: true,imageSizeFactor: [ [4000, 0.9],[1024, 0.8],[768, 0.7],[640, 0.6],[320, 0.5]],selectedFilter: 'n-a'});jQuery(function () {(function () {var rel = '';jQuery('#ftg-1717 .ftg-lightbox').click(function (e) {rel = jQuery(this).attr('rel');jQuery('#ftg-1717 .ftg-current').removeClass('ftg-current');jQuery('#ftg-1717 [rel=\"'+rel+'\"]').addClass('ftg-current');});})();jQuery('#ftg-1717 .tile a.ftg-lightbox').prettyPhoto({});});}, 0);});&nbsp;Brett and Eric\u2019s family came together and put their hearts into the planning to pull off the perfect backyard. We took portraits at Monte Sano State Park, just a few minutes up the road from Eric&#8217;s mother\u2019s home, where the wedding was held. Rosalyn, a friend of Brett&#8217;s from college, performed a heartwarming ceremony. Even their cake was donated from a friend.It was a pleasure shooting this special day and I am incredibly grateful to have made history in the state of Alabama!&nbsp;VENDORS\u00a0Photography: j.woodbery photographyVenue: Private residence, Alabama "},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Romantic Backyard Alabama Gay Wedding","item":"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/romantic-backyard-gay-wedding\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
