Suzanne Westenhoefer Announces Wedding Plans by GO Magazine staff August 20, 2008 |
|
The first openly gay comedian in the United States plans to legally wed her longtime partner on September 6, 2008.
“We wanted to make sure we could get married before November,” said Westenhoefer, “which didn’t give us a lot of time to plan.
We still haven’t figured out what we’re going to wear. Right now that’s our biggest issue.”
“We had a ceremony for our families back in November 2006,” said Westenhoefer, “but they make gay people get married again and again and again.
I guess we have to prove we really mean it.”
Westenhoefer and Houston are planning a small private ceremony followed by a party for friends and family and a short honeymoon at the Beverly Hilton.
Westenhoefer was the first lesbian comedian to have her own HBO Comedy Special, which earning her a Cable Ace Award nomination, and her performance on “Late Night with David Letterman” was the first by an openly gay comedian.
