Freddy Palmer and Becca Morris tied the knot at the Channel Islands’ Pride celebrations in Guernsey, which, according to organisers, was the first time a wedding had taken place at the Pride event.
The couple led the annual Pride parade, which saw hundreds of people walk the Pride route.
Freddy said: “We’re wives and we can say it now. It’s for everyone, it’s for all the young people who need to see representation like this to feel accepted.”
Before the wedding, Becca said she was nervous because Pride was such an important event to her.
“It means so much to me, for making me feel comfortable in myself and my lesbian identity,” she said.
Channel Islands Pride director Ellie Jones said the wedding could be a “world first where a couple have got married on a Pride stage”.
“We can’t find another case where it’s happened and it’s legal,” she said.
“Because we have quite unique wedding laws we can get married wherever, whenever rather than getting married in a particular building.”
Drag Queen Magenta, who is the patron of Channel Islands charity Liberate, said she was in Guernsey to have a “jolly good time”.
“It’s a chance for everybody to celebrate their differences and come together. It’s fabulous,” she said.
“We’ve got friends from Jersey over, we’ve got friends from the UK, it just brings people together.”
