The experience has made the couple very aware of just what that means — or could mean. Vaughan explains, “We never intended for our wedding to become a statement or advocacy or any of that, but when I’m looking to find engagement rings to propose to my boyfriend … and the look I got.
That’s when I realized, oh, we still aren’t as far along as we should be. We were like, we have to do something.” But the couple isn’t just shaking things up on the glossy pages of magazines.
