Synopsis

In this offbeat doc, we follow two Philadelphians who travel to Iowa to fulfill their dreams and add some fire to the same sex-marriage debate raging in Pennsylvania.

Review

Amanda Kole and Rachel Turanski, two twenty-something lesbians in love, want to take the extra step and officially tie-the-knot. With reams of tulle and a gold wedding jump-suit packed, the brides, and their Chihuahua, are soon on a road-trip, to the heartland of America - Ames, Iowa - (the only State in the central heartland of the U.S. that recognizes same-sex marriage) to exchange wedding vows and rings, officiated by gold lamé devotee and lady rapper Leslie Hall. Tender interviews with Amanda’s parents show how far they have come embracing their daughter’s sexuality, but is the same-sex wedding too much of a step for the brides families? At a time when every same-sex wedding is seen as a political act can a lesbian wedding be all glitter and gold lamé?.You will have to judge for yourself.
