We're sure that when many of you picture your ideal wedding location it is someplace warm, someplace welcoming, and someplace where straight men go to pay for sex! Your dream can now come true; the infamous Bunny Ranch brothel in Carson City, Nevada, has promised to provide free - and legally recognized - weddings to gay couples across America.
In fact, owner Dennis Hof even got himself ordained as a minister so that he could officiate the weddings at the Ranch.
And the deal he's offering is pretty good!
“I’m paying for the marriage licenses, and we’ll host a great reception for the couples in one of our plush Bunny Ranch VIP suites,"
Hof said. “A large part of our business has become couples coming here to explore having another girl join them in a sexual experience, and many of those couples have been lesbians. Being able to provide them with the ability to legally join hands in marriage and then consummating the union right here on site with the assistance of a beautiful Bunny if they so chose, will be a true honor for me."
Gay men may wish to forgo that particular option. (Or not, depending on how memorable you want your first time as a married couple to be.)
"I’m happy to pay for the licenses so these couples can finally fully enjoy the basic human rights that they have been wrongfully denied for so long,” he added.
Hof admitted that part of his decision was because of his recent friendship with Liberace's ex-boyfriend, Scott Thorson. Hof allowed Thorson to stay at the ranch while Thorson was struggling financially so that he could get back on his feet.
“Having Scott live at The Bunny Ranch for a period of months right next door to my house while he got back on his feet allowed me to have day-to-day interaction with a gay person who over time became a very close friend," Hof said. "If someone were to tell me that my friend isn’t worthy of loving someone and being loved in return, that person and I would have a big problem — a very big problem.”
The free wedding offer is open to all gay, lesbian and transgender couples until Labor Day 2015. Those interested can email pr@bunnyranch.com to reserve a date.
