Atlanta chef plans mass wedding for 101 gay couples in June
Art Smith, former personal chef to Oprah and overlord of the Southern Art restaurant in Buckhead, has plans to make Atlanta the center of attention next month. From the Huffington Post:
The "101 Gay Weddings" in Atlanta will take place Sunday, June 28, 2015 from 1:00-6:00 p.m. The first 101 couples to tweet #101GayWeddings to @ChefArtSmith will be invited to participate in the free wedding and each couple invited will be able to bring to guests to share in the special day.
The timing isn’t a coincidence. The current term of the U.S. Supreme Court ends June 30. Justices are expected to hand down their decision on gay marriage before splitting for Vegas or the beach.
