Gay Wedding Show 2007
If you’re planning on registering your Civil Partnership, don’t miss the Gay Wedding Show this November. It’s Britain’s first and official lesbian and gay wedding show, and this year you can catch the show at Cardiff (4 November), Manchester (18 November) and Brighton (25 November).
Launched in 2004, the Gay Wedding Show has helped thousands of gay couples with their weddings and ceremony planning, legal information, equality issues and honeymoons.
Hosted by Pink Weddings and Pink Products, the Gay Wedding Show brings you exhibitors from all over Britain who can make your big day easier and that little bit more special. So whether you’re looking for a chocolate fountain, his & his wedding souvenirs or beautiful flower displays, you’ll find it at one of the stalls. Each show also has great entertainment, so the only difficulty you’ll have is what to see first!
At all of this year’s shows, local Members of Parliament (MPs) make an opening speech, and you’ll be able to see examples of Civil Partnership, religious and independent ceremonies so you know what to expect from yours.
The first of this year’s 3 shows is in Cardiff, where the sassy and sparkling hostess Amber Dextrous will be guiding you through the day. There’ll be music from the acoustic band GypsyFire and a Dusty Springfield tribute act, plus magician Quenny will be showing you some of his mind-blowing tricks.
The Manchester show is hosted by ‘one-man all-woman showgirl’ Dixi Tucker. There’s music from classical and contemporary singer Rebecca Newman and soulful acoustic singer Jess Gardham, and Quenny makes another appearance with his bag of tricks.
The last of the 3 shows is in Brighton, where the glamorous Fonda Cox is your hostess for the day. Saxophone quartet, 'Anacrusis' will provide the musical entertainment alongside singer Chip Jenkins, blues singer Jo Paige and live band Alter Ego. Magician Marc Lemezma will also be there to dazzle you with his great close up magic throughout the day.
Tickets to each show cost £3.50, and donations will be made to selected gay charities across Britain.
