Thank you so much for the advice! Me and my girlfriend are actually brazilian and canadian, respectively. We’re getting married in Vegas next year, right after attending the Trixie & Katya tour!! It’s gonna be a wild ride! As a latina, I have very close bonds with my family, in terms of everyone knowing what goes on with each other. It’s just a habit to believe I owe them the details of my life, but I really don’t! And the people that do know about my sexuality are very supportive and that’s more than enough! Thank you for answering! Me and my future wife will make sure to send you an invitation to our big big wedding in a few years from now ❤️
Hi Isabella, I too am Hispanic and going through a Vegas wedding to my partner of 8 years. I’m also struggling with not telling me family (my sister especially) but we have decided it will be just the 2 of us for $$$ sake and will tell our family after the fact. Often times family ideals and expectations ruin beautiful moments for the 2 important people who are making a union. Good luck with it all and just know and realize you’re making the correct decision that makes sense for you and your girlfriend. Saludos 🥰
My wife and I decided on a Monday to get married that Friday at our local town hall by our mayor. It was the first week it was legal in NJ & it was just supposed to be a political gesture but it ended up being our one and only wedding and it was perfect. Bc we can't resist committing to a theme, we decided to get all weddingly gussied up and told everyone else to just show up in whatever. Legit 60 people showed up to the town hall for the, like, 15 min ceremony that could be no longer bc there was a line of people getting married. Our families love novelty so they got into it and my Mom bought us lil bouquets, my wife's aunt bought a cake, my Uncle Ken picked us up in a weird 1970's reproduction of a 1920's jalopy that legit went "AOOOOOGA" when he blasted the horn, my Dad made a "Just Married" sign on electric pink poster paper from CVS (with the wrong date on it) & tied soda cans to the back of the jalopy, my friend Bernice (that I hadn't seen in five years) showed up & accidentally became our professional photographer (but she deleted me from FB later bc I asked her to stop bullying someone and she called me a cunt thus me losing access to most of my wedding photos LOL), my Dad bought us to champagne to open and pour on the jalopy in a mixed metaphor that we didn't totally get but gladly did, and my Grandma bought us champagne glasses to drink it in from the GIFT SHOP of the Scottish restaurant we went to for "the reception". Like 20 of the 60 people came to the restaurant including someone I'd never met before in my life (oh AND coworkers I barely knew came to the town hall LOL). Our parents split the bill for everyone's fish & chips (oh and weirdly they gave us free haggis) AND?! The owner of the restaurant came out and spontaneously played the bagpipes for us. Oh and bc we were like, "Oh come if you can but don't worry it you can't bc we're gonna have a real one", my wife's brother, wife, and kids weren't there and neither was my aunt and her family bc they had previous plans to go to Halloween parties LOL. Egg on my face. Also? We bought my new wife's wedding blazer at the KMart down the hill & our $30 silver wedding bands the morning of LOL. We went on a lil weekend honeymoon to the Catskills where we stayed in a room designed to look like the television program, "I Dream of Genie" that is owned by queers (The Roxbury) and that was that. The mayor told us that we were the first gay marriage in town and that he was glad to have performed it but he'd wanted the first to be an elderly male couple who had been together for 50 years (one of whom is terminally ill). I said, "OMFG why didn't you just go to their house then?! We'd have wanted that too!" He said, "I don't know." Then he asked us to never leave town and made my wife have some weird town job that made her be on the local voting ballot without her knowledge (& us having found out at the voting booth). This job never required her ever to do anything, paid nothing, and she was "re-elected" without her knowledge and then we left town anyway. Fin. The long and the short, Isabella, isn't all that fuckery more fun than having a really cool cocktail hour? LOL.
Aka just tell them and carry on. Legit we just bought our first house at 41 and we're buying all our own shit. It's like I'm throwing myself the bridal shower of my dreams.
I don't know if it's my frame of mind or the fact that I just watched Miss Mattel eat herself out with the sponsorship of Duncan Hines® but this column feels like it has a really good vibe. Ready to go drive to the beach in my convertible with the top down next to Beach Bunny, listening to their amazing music on the tape deck, while smoking a cigarette and experiencing zero smudging of my immaculate red lip.
ISABELLA’S GIRLFRIEND IS BEACH BUNNY AND THE SONGS ARE TOTALLY NOT ABOUT YOU AND IM ABSOLUTELY NOT WORKING ON AN ELECTRONIC VERSION OF ONE OF THE SONGS *JUST* TO CONVINCE KATYA TO LISTEN TO IT
Absolutely MAC’s Ruby Woo is the most matte lipstick of all time. Also check out Nasty Woman Cosmetics: I love Crush It Crimson - goes on like gloss but gets real matte and has hella staying power. March With Me Mauve is also beautiful. Nasty Woman has a pretty dope feminist agenda and proceeds from each sale benefit organizations such as She Should Run, ACLU Michigan and Planned Parenthood.

Oh, and by the way, coincidentally (or not) my girlfriend is actually beach bunny, the question right below mine hhahaha
That's adorable! Best wishes and many happy years to the two of you!

I like your style...and your attitude!
a Taylor reference from Katya? swifties we've finally come full circles
Why did I not notice until talking to my friend about the lipstick question that Trixie just didn't answer it? 🙃
Haha she's like, "You got it, Katya." Maybe it's bc she doesn't smoke but she DOES do a weed so...

Laugh Out Loud Hilarious!
