The Brides of March: Memoir of a Same-sex Marriage

The bride was covered in cracker crumbs, but didn't care. The Brides of March drove mini-vans, paid taxes, bought braces, and joined the PTA,never expecting the phone call in March, 2004, that would send them leaping throughthe suddenly opened window of same-sex marriage, with their kids along for the raucousride. The Brides of March is a bride's eye view of same-sex marriage at a moment's notice, witha bevy of brides, their coterie of children, donuts, newspaper reporters, screamingprotesters, mothers of the brides who never thought they'd see the day, white weddingcake, and a houseful of happy heterosexuals toasting the marriage. But that was only the beginning as these private declarations of love became publicfodder, fueling social commentary, letters to the editor, and the fires of political debate,when all the brides wanted was the opportunity to say "I do" in this candid, poignant,and frequently funny tale of lesbian moms getting to the church on time in MultnomahCounty."DeMotier opens your eyes to the heart and soul of this generation's civil rights battle."- Diane M. Linn, former Multnomah County Chair" a beautifully-written, quirky look at the pros and cons of same-sex marriage from theinside out, smart without being preachy, funny without being bitter, emotional withoutbeing maudlin."-Anne Mini, Ph. D.
