Gay Couple Still Manage To Have White Wedding Dresses On Their Big Day

"I figured every wedding needs a wedding dress—so why not ten?"

Deri Rogers and his boyfriend Ben Wood aren't much for doing drag, but they still wanted a white wedding gown at their recent nuptials. So they decided to ask their bridesmaids—all ten of them—to wear wedding dresses in lieu of the usual tacky bridesmaid frock.

“Being a gay wedding we weren’t going to have an amazing gown reveal" Rogers, 28, told Wales Online. "[But] I figured every wedding needs a wedding dress—so why not ten?"

Each woman found her own dress on eBay, and was able to pick something she'd probably never wear on her own wedding day (and for a fraction of the cost).

“You could say the girls stole the limelight but we wouldn’t have had it any other way,” says Rogers.

Deri and Ben’s best “man” Sadie introduced the pair back in 2013, but Deri admits "nothing really came" of their first date. Months later they got back in touch and things sparked. Ben proposed in January.

In addition to the "white wedding," the guys included a chocolate fountain, cotton candy cart and an LED dance floor.

“Ben is more sensible than me and he likes to stick to the budget but in the end we both got swept along with it," says Deri of the £18,000 affair. “It took some planning to have the wedding organized by August."
