Highlight Of The Year

Growing up I never considered that one day, my fellow gay men and lesbians would actually be able to marry each other. For years I've DJ'ed weddings, watching jealously knowing I couldn't do it myself.  But now it's happened for real and despite the painful process we went through, I'm still marvelling at it.
