What is a Sologamist | Sologamy WeddingsAre you the type of person who has always dreamt of the picture-perfect wedding, but can’t see yourself being tied down to someone “til death do you part”? You may cringe at the thought of marriage, however, that doesn’t mean that you can’t have a wedding of your own. So get married…to yourself! The newest wedding trend Sologamy is sweeping the nation.

You may have guessed it by now Sologamy is the act of marrying yourself. Although this “self-loving” trend is not legally recognized, it is a fast-growing trend in the UK, Australia, and the United States. This phenomenon was first made popular in an episode of Sex and the City, where trend-setting Carrie complains that she is always forced to celebrate other’s union of love, yet no one celebrates her choice to love herself and be single.

Advocates of sologamy see this as an act of empowerment and self-love.
