Ron and Jon Tie a Spectacular Knot

Posted by Eric Barton on Tue, Oct 23, 2007 at 11:13 AM

On Sunday night, Jon Fulton Adams and Ron Megee got married in a spectacular affair. JFA, a fashion and costume designer, and Ron, an actor who founded Late Night Theatre, are known for hosting creative theme parties in their West Bottoms loft. So it was no surprise that their big night incorporated an Edwardian-Victorian-goth theme, a touching ceremony that made most everyone cry and – of course – a stage show with drag and burlesque performances at the reception.

The ceremony -- which Ron described in his vows as a “one-night only” show -- took place at the Coterie Theater. The wedding party dressed in either black jackets with tails or corset dresses with billowing skirts, which they accessorized with pheasant feather corsages. Ron and JFA both sported top hats and tuxes; Ron had a black lace veil hanging from the front of his hat. De De Deville, who rocked the ringlet curls and a Victorian dress with a bustle, carried Atticus, the couple’s wire terrier. He served as the ring-bearer and his little stubby tail wagged excitedly as he went down the aisle.

After they were pronounced husband and husband, we headed to their loft for the reception. Some highlights of the night:

About 6 million people exist on the earth, three quarters are aquainted with jesus. One human preaching in one single country, initiated it, with just word of mouth. You bloggers have the world wide web with which to reach all of those people, all this at your fingertips, you can change anything, go for it bad boys!!!!!!

I think I took all the heat of God's wrath on this one - I broke my ankle (and sprained the other one) at the party. Consider it my wedding gift, boys. ;)

It was a fantastic event and I was so happy to be a part of it. RonJon is my favorite celebrity couple, and I wish them all the happiness in the world. (But seriously, you're not getting a gift from me now.)

Damn, I meant to send my picket squad out to raise a ruckus at that wedding. God not only hates fags, but he hates sodomite weddings too. These are the other things God hates: dirty underwear, Britney Spears, banana-walnut pancakes, Bratz dolls, tuna fish casserole, monogrammed bedsheets, Angelina Jolie, cheap perfume, Pat Buchanan, the entire cast of "Everyone Loves Raymond," cashmere scarves, black nail polish, Dick Clark, anyone who shops at Dillards, Santi-Cali-Gon Days, Pat Benatar, Dan Rather, Peregrine Hoenig, frozen pizza rolls and the entire state of California. And he's not that crazy about anyone with tattoos or pierced nipples either. God tells me a lot, but I tend to focus on the fag stuff because no one would give a shit if I carried a "God Hates Bratz" picket sign.

Remember that a blender is *never* an appropriate birthday gift for your spouse
(hmmph). Congrats!
