The Big Gay Wedding of Gieza and Tomi, part 1!

Big Gay Wedding dancers Suzanne Forbes June 13 2022

This glorious event was the highlight of the Queer Berlin Spring!

Dear ones Gieza and Tomi celebrated their wedding at beautiful and historic Zionskirche in Berlin this May. I was honored to be there and doing documentary drawing.

The first drawing I have to share is ballet dancers Selene Laurent Halliwell, left, and Kai Immanuel Alonzo Braithwaite, right. These two artists illuminated the church with their grace and were a joy to draw.

The Big Gay Wedding in May was the only non-medical indoor event I’ve been to in 2.5 years; it was extremely well ventilated at both venues and I was always N95/FFP3 masked. I was profoundly supported and cared for as a disabled person by the grooms and the community, and I am so grateful. It cost a LOT to get my disabled self there, in taxis & paying a kind carer for their time. It was worth it and my Patrons made it happen!

I am so grateful to my Patreon Patrons, whose monthly financial support makes it possible for me to continue documenting Berlin performers as a vaccinated but Covid-vulnerable disabled person.
