Colorful Rainbow Wedding at the Hyatt Regency at The Arcade in Cleveland, Ohio

Claire and Erin live their lives with plenty of color—and their wedding was no exception. “The whole thing felt like a break from tradition,” Erin says. “We invited our queer, colorful theater friends from New York City to the Midwest for a big gay wedding.” Surrounded by their attendants, dubbed “the skirts and suspenders,” the two said “I do” in a ceremony they wrote themselves, including a handfasting with DIY cords. Erin’s aunt made the clay rainbow cats that topped the multiflavored, multicolored confection.
