Martha Stewart's First Gay Wedding

Martha Stewart WeddingsThere are weddings, and then there are Martha Stewart weddings. Actually, literally, the magazine Martha Stewart Weddings. And the glossy is making history with its next issue by featuring a profile on their first gay wedding ceremony.

Even better is that one of the grooms involved is fellow blogger and snarkmeister Jeremy Hooper over at Good As You. His take?

"We're humbled and honored to have been deemed 'good thing'-y enough to grace this mass market mag's pages. It's one time you won't hear us complain about our love being turned into an issue," writes Hooper.

Ah, killer pun ("our love being turned into an issue"). Kudos to Jeremy and his husband Andrew. And of course to Martha Stewart, ever on top of the latest trends, whether it's how to make a no-bake gingerbread cottage, or how to champion equal rights with simply a photographer and a nice Connecticut day.
