  1. The best wedding gift I ever saw for a gay couple is a special little anniversary sundial that sits on the window sill and makes a big brilliant rainbow move across the floor in our family room when the sun shines. We got one for our wedding, a gift certificate actually, and we were able to have it made specifically for our window sill, and the man who made it added a date line and moment mark that the time shadow follows and touches on our wedding day each year. It was perfect and fun to work on together after the honeymoon was over. I don’t remember what it’s called exactly but it’s totally custom made and you can find it online with a search. We like to give the gift certificates for wedding gifts, especially when we have to travel to the wedding!
