Lesbian wedding bliss looks like.

[Artist Statement] Tell us more about your photo by sharing a brief artist statement OR answering this prompt: "This is what being ______ means to me..." (Max. 100 words)

This is what being a lesbian means to me. We created a strong foundation for our shared lives by allowing ourselves to be vulnerable, laughing at our foibles, and rewriting our lives' scripts.

[Visual Description] Describe your photo so we can provide alt-text. Example: "Two women holding hands and smiling as they walk in a pride parade, surrounded by rainbow flags."

This photo is from our civil union in 2001 in Vermont. At that moment I was so nervous that I slipped the ring on the wrong finger. Our friend captured our laughter when we realized what happened.

[Agreement] Do you consent to The Curve Foundation storing, sharing, and using this image and its description as we deem appropriate, including disseminating on our social media, website, and Curve Archive and Curve Quarterly?
