Gay Weddings

Summary: What a lesson!!!!!!
Review: I rented this DVD thinking it was some sort of independent film offering from some obscure film festival. I was, initially, disappointed to find out I had gotten hold of a "reality show" about gay weddings. However, I gave it a try and after watching the first episode I found that this program was cleverly formulated to show four gay couples from different backgrounds and different social standings (you know what I mean). It's a given that any wedding has a abnormal amount of stress associated with it and while there is enough of it on display here, this show does not play to those negitive aspects. Instead, GAY WEDDINGS take the whole wedding experience to the next level by showing what gay couples have to contend with from the planning stages, family and friends and ultimately each other. As it turns out, gay couples have just as much anxiety as straight couples when it comes to putting yourself and your loved one out on display (as what a "wedding" essentially does). Of course, since gay marriages are illegal, GAY WEDDINGS finds it purpose in not campaigning for legalizing gay marriages, but centering your attention on the true meaning of "the union". After I finished watching the entire eight episodes and all the extras, there is nothing but the "piece of paper" missing from these REAL marriages. This film/DVD is so intimate that you can't help but get caught up in the ride and feel all the emotions that each couple has during their journey to the alter. Fantastic and fun. 5*****

Summary: At last
Review: I saw the original broadcast of Bravo's Gay Weddings about two years ago and i have been waiting for it to be released on dvd since then, this show inspired me to propose marriage to my lover, something that before i thought was imposible, this show should be required viewing for high school students so they can understand that two people of the same gender can love each other as much as a man and a woman can, i salute bravo on their desition to finally release this show on dvd
