Civil Union Ceremony in Arrowtown

Although there wasn’t the snow on the ground that Detlev and Nigel anticipated for their civil union ceremony today in Arrowtown, it was a magical day! I have participated in many very special ceremonies, however todays was extra special,it is difficult to put it into words, but the adoration and utter happiness shared by these 2 men, I will not forget.

In their words”it is important for our relationship not to be invisible, the way they were in the past at best seen as ‘longtime companions’ subject to speculation and silence.” I couldn’t have said it better myself.

The photos were taken on my iphone and they loved my mini, almost as much as I do!!
