Step into the spotlight and Tie the Knot (or Fake It!) 💍✨ — a dazzling Gala evening of drama, glamour, and unapologetic joy in support of the Pacific Northwest Desi Queer Community Group 🏳️‍🌈.

This year, we’re turning tradition on its head with a Faux Desi Wedding — where the processions are louder, the looks are bolder, and the love stories are entirely ours to define. Whether you arrive as the over-the-top bride, the swaggy groom, or the iconic show-stealer rewriting every wedding rule, or the dramatic ex, or the scene-stealing wedding guest 💃🕺, this is your moment to embody peak celebration energy.

Expect an unforgettable night filled with vibrant performances, iconic wedding-inspired moments, indulgent bites, and playful twists on classic rituals — plus an auction that lets you give back while living your best cinematic fantasy 🎬.

Attire: Go all out or keep it sharp — wear Desi, suits, fusion fits, or anything that feels unapologetically you. From lehengas and sherwanis to tuxedos, gowns, or boundary-breaking looks, this is your runway to celebrate style without limits ✨

This isn’t just a gala — it’s a celebration of identity, community, and reclaiming space with joy, humor, and a whole lot of sparkle ✨

So bring the drama 🎭, raise a toast 🥂, and hit the dance floor like it’s the party of the year — because when we rewrite the rules, we create magic together 💖
