We heard an earful for having suggested a planned protest outside Charlie Crist's wedding and reception was a tacky idea. Lorna Bracewell of ImpACT Florida corrected us, saying it is a demonstration and not a protest.

"We are explicitly and enthusiastically pro-marriage," said Bracewell. "Our goal is to celebrate the governor’s and every Floridian’s fundamental right to marry, a right that, unfortunately, millions of Floridians have been denied in the most categorical way that our political process offers by Amendment 2."

At least 400 demonstraters are expected and will be given stickers that say, "Congratulations, Governor! When can I get married?" to wear on their pink shirts. There will be no chanting outside the wedding at First United Methodist Church, Bracewell said, and signs will be "in keeping with the positive and peaceful spirit of the demonstration." They also plan a candlelight vigil across from the reception at the Renaissance Vinoy hotel, and demonstraters will likely sing Somewhere Over the Rainbow.
