Once upon a time, the societal formula for weddings was pretty limited: boy + girl + religious ceremony = wedding. Period. Anyone who deviated was...well...a deviant, subject to social and legal marginalization. Similarly, for many years our culture supported a narrow definition of family, namely family = a husband + a wife + their biological child(ren). Period. Unmarried parents, same-sex parents, interracial families, immigrant families, blended families, families of color, families without children, and even adoptive families struggled to find their place in society, facing a range of difficulties and indignities at every turn.

Have we said it enough? THANK YOU for backing Catalyst Wedding Magazine and giving us the opportunity to print not just one, but TWO volumes, with the funding from the Kickstarter. We are so jazzed, and we are ready to CELEBRATE!
