If you are planning your lesbian wedding ceremony it could be to finally formalize and celebrate the many years you have spent together living together as a couple without any legal recognition. If this is the case you may want to reflect the personal struggles and triumphs of Lesbian and Gay history in your wedding centerpieces.
You will be looking for ideas, perhaps without wanting to stereotype the Gay community, but you will be revelling in the many wonderful aspects that being a lesbian means to you. You and your partner will have your shared experiences of what being women that love women means to you as a couple and individually.
If you are looking for lesbian wedding centerpieces, the chances are you want to be proud and loud about your union without crushing your families’ sensibilities. Consider having favor bowls as your lesbian wedding centerpieces fill colored bowls with lesbian and gay badges, bumper stickers, window stickers, lollipops for the children, small rainbow ribbons to pin to lapels and other rainbow wedding favors your guests can wear or enjoy to show there support of Lesbian and Gay rights.
You may want the wedding ceremonies to be subtle and understated, so a good choice would be to incorporate the colors of The Womens Movement. White green and purple may be a good starting point for you, whether a single white rose with green foliage wrapped in a purple ribbon or a bouquets of mixed blooms representative of the colors.
For a more open and radical approach, now that computers give you access to so much information, you could compile newspaper sheets and present them as scrolls wrapped rainbow ribbons, or the more subtle purple white and green. Stand them in a bowl or vase, each covering an aspect of your lives, look for moments of history where women have triumphed, select relevant moments from a timeline of Gay rights, or use photographs of Lesbian and Gay events or pride marches you have attended in your articles. You almost certainly have personal Sapphic victories to draw upon so do not be afraid to draw on your personal experiences and celebrate Gay Lesbian and transgender culture. You can shout about it from the rooftop after you finally have the lesbian wedding ceremony that you have waited so long for.
