From The Telegraph-Planning a wedding, as any newly-wed will tell you, can quickly become one of the most stressful experiences of your life – particularly for the bride. From attempting to hand-make 100 place-holders for that “personal touch” to ensuring there's a cheese-free menu option for one lactose-intolerant aunt, many women will have something that triggers a major meltdown before they make it down the aisle.
But, for my friend Ella*, these issues and obstacles seem blissfully trivial in comparison to the worries that keep her up at night as the big day approaches.
She's marrying her girlfriend of two years in the summer, and the wedding preparations are well under way. It should be a time of excitement and celebration, despite the anxiety-inducing ‘wedmin’ – but Ella, as well as being in a same-sex relationship, is also a Christian. And, as things currently stand, this creates some pretty insurmountable problems.
