筆者最近被友人問起，世界上到底有哪些同性婚姻合法化的國家；不搜尋也不發現，原來這些開放的地方比想像中來得多：比利時、南非、阿根廷、巴西等等，這當然是大家樂見的畫面，不過要是想進一步討論同性婚禮，就未必有太多的參考對象。

還好！這裡要為你介紹世界上第一本女同性的婚禮雜誌──Dancing With Her。它是一對澳洲伴侶Tara Baker和Arlia Hassell的心血結晶，二人去年才剛訂婚。就在她們決定要和對方私定終身，嘗試策劃屬於自己婚禮時，就發現這裡根本沒有專為同性準新娘而設的婚禮刊物──怎麼辦？她們唯有自己創辦！

一般的婚禮雜誌介紹的是妝容、禮服、婚照拍攝、場地佈置、首飾店鋪……但好像少了討論一段婚姻中最重要的元素──愛。兩個截然不同的人走在一起已經不容易，還要是社會上的性小眾，少點耐力和堅持都不能成事，所以Dancing With Her分享的不止是在技術上教你「如何撰寫你的結婚誓言」、「怎樣把你的婚禮變成包容LGNTQ+的派對」等，更多的是讓你看到一個又一個真實的女同性戀故事。

不少故事中的婚禮陳設都很簡單：鮮花、一些甜品和稍微佈置的花拱，畫面中最美麗的是親友的笑容和一對新人眼中散發的愛意，這些都不是金錢能堆砌出來的東西。

Although Australia does not yet have marriage equality, we know that women who are in same-sex relationships are choosing to celebrate their love and make a lasting commitment to one another, and that deserves celebrating.
（譯：即使澳洲還沒有實行同性婚姻，但我們知道女同性戀人們都在選擇慶祝她們的愛，互相承諾，這是值得慶祝的。）

雖然這是一本關於女性的雜誌，但她們相信Dancing With Her也是屬於所有會愛人的人的；不管你的性取向和性別是甚麼，那份愛也同樣偉大。
