Jason Mitchell Kahn Helps Queer Couples Rewrite Wedding Traditions

Unlike many straight women who have been dreaming of their wedding day their whole lives, gay wedding planner Jason Mitchell Kahn said, gays and lesbians and transgender folks just haven’t. So they approach wedding planning with a fresh eye as well as with some child-like excitement.

In his new book, We Do: An Inclusive Guide When a Traditional Wedding Won’t Cut It, Kahn says the process is different with queer couples. Both brides or grooms get involved and are more likely than hetero couples to plan the wedding and make decisions together.
