Now you can buy cards for same-sex marriage ceremonies.

OK, technically this isn't Pagan or Wiccan news, but it does apply to many of our readers here and I think it's cool, so I'm sharing it. Hallmark has announced that they will be putting out a line of same-sex marriage greeting cards, starting next year. The cards don't specifically say wedding or marriage, which means that you could use them for a commitment ceremony if you're in a state that doesn't yet recognize gay marriage, or you could use them for a handfasting celebration. The message? "Two hearts, one promise." How awesome is that?

I think this is fantastic news!! It really is about time!!

Let’s hope we don’t end up seeing protestors sitting outside the Hallmarks in the malls!! LOL

Maybe someday we can buy our Winter Solstice cards there as well!! How sweet would that be!!
