More: New York is in love with Equal Marriage! Get hitched and have fun with the "Jester of the Peace." From Sept. 26 to 30th, LGBT and straight couples can legally wed, renew vows, or just declare love as partners or friends in styles from zany to sweet. Don costumes from gowns to clowns, sing your vows. Themes change daily.
Couples wanting legal marriage must provide a valid New York City marriage license on arrival. Appointments and Walk-Ins welcome. Far-off relatives and friends can attend via Skype (and maybe even do a reading!).
"There is nothing more sincere than having a really good time together," says real-life wedding officiant Barbara Ann Michaels. Ms. Michaels is New York’s “Jester of the Peace,” specializing in personalized, costumed, and adventure weddings. Says Michaels, "I have married couples at many elegant New York venues, in spontaneous declarations of love in Times Square, and on a reality TV show. No matter the form of a wedding, the sincerity of the couple’s love and commitment always shine through 100%. The modern trend is for your wedding to express who you are together. For couples who wouldn’t feel true to themselves without also expressing their creativity, I’m here. At the nexus of love and art."
The "Jester of the Peace" will also offer love letter writing, love grams by phone on the spot, making wedding rings from odds and ends, themed games, and a secret box to release whatever gets in the way of love in your life. Love is Art. Art is Love. And you’re invited to the wedding!
