This is BEAUTIFUL! I got a little misty eyed watching it. Don't forget, this is what McCain and Palin want to destroy. This video and others like it is a threat to the Republicans and their idea of morals and family values!

It would have been nice to see the happy couple *gasp* kiss!
Or do gay couples not do that?

Well that video was made for her show, so I can see why they thought maybe some viewers wouldn't be ready for that.
Overall a very moving video. You can really see the love in both of their eyes, and they both look lovely.
And man - those flowers! Gorgeous!

Ready for that? How does one go about making one ready for that?
The answer is by actually doing it. Someone having the balls to step forward and do it.
I'm sorry -- no, wait, I'm not sorry -- that video had the potential to be something that could have been taken seriously, but by clearly censoring a simple kiss by the married couple that people are supposed to be taking as seriously as they would the straight married couples they know and see on TV all the time, it became nothing but a joke.

Posted: 9/11/08 at 11:16amBeautiful video. I had tears in my eyes. Who cares if there is no kiss on camera? If you needed that to show you the love between them, then you weren't watching.

I agree.
Oh, and Portia is freakin' stunning.

Why are you yelling at me about it Foster? I'm not the one that made the video.
And yes, I agree. Kiss or no kiss it is obvious how much they love each other.

I don't think she was ever into them.

i like that there are no kissing photos... kissing wedding photos are tacky and corny... this video is beautiful and they look very happy.
congrats to them

I agree, Pab.
In fact, I prefer not to watch any people kissing-gay straight or otherwise.
That was a lovely video. Well made.

But you gotta agree, had this been a straight celebrity couple, they would've shown them kissing for sure. Even the "regular" couples who've become engaged on Ellen's show have been shown embracing and kissing.

Posted: 9/11/08 at 3:10pmWell, maybe some people enjoy the kissing, not me.

Posted: 9/11/08 at 3:14pmIt's not about "enjoying" watching people kiss. I thought it was a nice video, but had this been about a straight celebrity couple, they wouldn't have hesitated to show them kissing.

Posted: 9/11/08 at 3:14pmWell, StageManager2, perhaps all it boils down to is that Ellen and Portia are more private/tasteful than the straight couples who have to kiss on camera. I'm with Jane.

Some of those pictures were pretty intimate. Maybe it was a personal choice because they wanted to keep some part of the ceremony private.

Posted: 9/11/08 at 3:47pmWell it's Ellen's show. And the video was made for her show. I'm sure if she wanted pictures of them kissing in the video, she would have had them there.

I have to agree with those who have said that to look at the photos is to see the TRUE LOVE they share. They are so intimate, in the most special way.
Kissing or not kissing really doesn't matter. The photos are exquisite, and show two people in love. Two WOMEN in love. And nobody can deny the beauty of what they share.
Foster, in my opinion the video can be taken very seriously because the emotions are so REAL. In fact, I found it to be so intimate as to take my breath away.
