At the only gay wedding I have ever attended, most everyone wore a suit. B) Conservative type suits....the basic black tuxedo. Well, except for me. :P
I was the escort of a lesbian friend who felt that she had to bring a date, so she wore the tuxedo and I dressed in the frilliest feminine thing I could find.
At the time this union was not a legally sanctioned one, but the two men getting married still felt strongly enough about their attachment to one another that they held a ceremony with following party anyway.
Most weddings nowadays are somewhat light on the 'traditional' accoutrement's anyway, what with the wildly varying backgrounds of the participants. I guess the gays who marry now will have to make up their own traditions, eh?
Oh, and I thought the Apocalypse was already looming over us. ;) I can't imagine this event speeding its arrival. :P

I know nice from right.
