was dressed as an evil mask-wearing villain from an anime. We saw each other and both thought, \u2018Wow, they&#8217;re so cool!\u2019 So we took a picture together and promptly went our separate ways without exchanging contact info. A few weeks later, I was at a spring picnic party that Perla just so happened to be attending. We were exchanging social media when we realized, oh, actually we&#8217;ve met before! And a wonderful friendship was born. It was another several months before we decided to give dating a try, and with both of us being on the asexual spectrum we weren&#8217;t really sure exactly how anything was \u2018supposed\u2019 to go. Those Hollywood love stories always seem to emphasize attraction and passion, but I think for us it was a little more of a slow burn, taking everything one step at a time and emphasizing communication and comfort. We dated for a couple of years before Perla swept in with the first proposal (on Christmas, no less!), but I made sure to have my counter-proposal a couple of months later, underneath the cherry blossom trees like where we first connected. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a

day in the middle of the afternoon. What started as a sunny morning was starting to turn cloudy by the time it was coming up on our 1 p.m. ceremony, but no rain yet. By the time we got to our vows, though, the thunder had started. Ironically, both of our vows mentioned storms, which was pretty poignant timing, but the sky was kind enough to wait until all of the guests went inside for the reception before the rain started. Fortunately, Perla is from Italy, and they say that rain on a wedding day is a sign of good fortune and a blessing from heaven, so we didn&#8217;t mind!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a

After that, we had a couple of other special dances, including my personal favorite, the family dance.\u201d With so many queer wedding guests in attendance, Chalice asked that the DJ call for anyone who came with their families up to dance, including &#8220;found families.&#8221; \u201cThat ended up being a huge hit! About half of our attendees came up and we formed a big circle, all holding hands, and everyone dancing together.

All of the graphics were done from scratch and based off of the same rose-petal motif that I designed our wedding rings after. Not to mention, the wedding outfits were totally custom! I designed my own \u2018bridal-style\u2019 suit and helped to design Perla&#8217;s dress-with-shorts combo, then worked with a custom wedding outfitter in Osaka called Novleaf, who totally brought the designs to life! <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was helpful to have some knowledge of sewing and costumes, because our requests were a bit unconventional. I had a full jacket made of ribbon lace with a vest, pants with lace cutouts and a removable organza train styled to look like the petals of a flower. Perla had a sweetheart neckline dress with keyhole back and a two-tiered skirt with a full slit down the front to show shorts underneath, with the longer skirt removable and the top skirt able to be bustled so that we could dance without stepping on the lace trim. I was so excited to see everything come to life on the day with all of the jewelry, makeup and hair in place. It was better than we could have imagined. For Perla&#8217;s part, they decided on most of the music, including our entrance music from How to Train Your Dragon and exit music from Portal 2, which was also the visionary for the hairstyles! We also included the traditional Italian wedding favor of confetti (candy-covered almonds) and put it next to our wedding card box (as opposed to a traditional wedding book).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a  href=\"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-53.webp\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-0\" data-rl_title=\"couple embracing. the front person is wearing a lacy jacket with a light pink blouse underneath\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"couple embracing. the front person is wearing a lacy jacket with a light pink blouse underneath\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-53.webp\" alt=\"couple embracing. the front person is wearing a lacy jacket with a light pink blouse underneath\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-83050\" srcset=\"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-53.webp 1200w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-53-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-53-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-53-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-53-585x390.webp 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>What advice would you give to engaged LGBTQ+ couples or marriers?<br \/>\nBe patient and diligent with where you choose to have your wedding and who you choose to have involved, from all of the vendors to the guests! It&#8217;s worth it to continue reaching out to vendors that &#8220;click&#8221; with you. It can be scary to put yourselves out there, especially in today&#8217;s climate, but once you&#8217;re able to share your story and make a real connection with people, that&#8217;s when the magic happens. It can be tempting to rush into things, and that&#8217;s true about anyone in that exciting whirlwind of being engaged!

Be it a massive album of gay weddings or just a little rainbow flag in the corner, nothing gives an LGBTQ+ couple a bigger sigh of relief than knowing that they won&#8217;t be turned away at the door. In addition to that, we think educating yourself is the next best advice we can give. Learn about pronouns, terminology, inclusive language, and remember to ask before making an assumption. And if you ever make a mistake with an LGBTQ+ client (it happens to all of us!), apologize, correct and carry on! Being respectful is always number one, and we always felt more comfortable with vendors who we could tell were making an effort.<\/p>\n<p><a  href=\"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-68.webp\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-0\" data-rl_title=\"nonbinary marriers toss their wedding bouquets at the same time\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"nonbinary marriers toss their wedding bouquets at the same time\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-68.webp\" alt=\"nonbinary marriers toss their wedding bouquets at the same time\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-83063\" srcset=\"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-68.webp 1200w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-68-200x300.webp 200w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-68-683x1024.webp 683w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-68-768x1152.webp 768w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-68-1024x1536.webp 1024w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-68-585x878.webp 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>What challenges did you face as an LGBTQ+ couple or LGBTQ+ marriers planning your wedding?<br \/>\nThere were definitely a lot of challenges that were pretty unique to us as an LGBTQ+ couple. First of all was location. Alabama isn&#8217;t usually the first place that comes to mind when it comes toLGBTQ+ inclusivity, but between all of our most realistic options, it was actually the best choice we had. We are an American and Italian couple living in Japan. In Japan, same-sex marriage is still completely illegal, and although there are &#8220;partnerships&#8221; that someone can get depending on the city, they aren&#8217;t legally binding. Italy has same sex partnerships, which have almost all of the legal rights of marriage, but wedding venues have multi-year long wait lists. That left my hometown as the only viable option, since the U.S. is the only place with fully legalized same-sex marriage.<\/p>\n<p><a  href=\"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-51.webp\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-0\" data-rl_title=\"these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-51\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-51\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-51.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-83049\" srcset=\"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-51.webp 1200w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-51-200x300.webp 200w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-51-683x1024.webp 683w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-51-768x1152.webp 768w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-51-1024x1536.webp 1024w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-51-585x878.webp 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a  href=\"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-39.webp\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-0\" data-rl_title=\"pink wedding cake with bright flowers\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"pink wedding cake with bright flowers\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-39.webp\" alt=\"pink wedding cake with bright flowers\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-83044\" srcset=\"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-39.webp 1200w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-39-200x300.webp 200w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-39-683x1024.webp 683w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-39-768x1152.webp 768w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-39-1024x1536.webp 1024w, https:\/\/equallywed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/these-nonbinary-cosplay-lovers-brought-anime-to-life-for-their-ethereal-wedding-jeff-and-rachel-photography-equally-wed-39-585x878.webp 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then we had to deal with searching for inclusive vendors and venues in Alabama, which always started with the same email that basically said, &#8220;Hey, do you accept gays?&#8221; In more than one instance, we were told that the vendor or venue had never worked with a same-sex couple.
