Promoted as the “World’s Largest All-Girl Wedding & Renewal Ceremony,” Bride Pride got its start ten years ago in Provincetown, Massachusetts – that charming, and very queer, coastal town at the tip of Cape Cod. (And yes, it;s transinclusive!!) Each year since, during Women’s Week Provincetown, about 50 couples have made the pilgrimage to Provincetown to get married or renew their marriage vows in the company of other brides.
This year, in honor of a full decade of joyful group weddings, event founders Alli and Eileen Baldwin are going big, with a destination bash in St. Pete, and one very famous wlw wedding officiant – Cynthia Nixon.
