With The Supreme Court’s landmark decision legalizing gay marriage in all 50 states, Bunny Ranch owner Dr. Dennis Hof is using his newly earned title of “minister” to make an offer to gay couples who want to join in a legal union.
Through Labor Day, Hof is inviting gay couples to come to the famed “Bunny Ranch” legal brothel in Carson City, Nevada to be married by him, absolutely free. Hof was recently ordained as a minister, and he thinks that the timing is incredibly fortuitous.
“I’m paying for the marriage licenses, and we’ll host a great reception for the couples in one of our plush VIP suites,” says Hof, author of “The Art Of The Pimp” & star of HBO’s “Cathouse” series chronicling life at the world famous legal bordello. “A large part of our business has become couples coming here to explore having another girl join them in a sexual experience, and many of those couples have been lesbians. Being able to provide them with the ability to legally join hands in marriage and then consummating the union right here on site with the assistance of a beautiful bunny if they so chose will be a true honor for me. I’m happy to pay for the licenses so these couples can fully enjoy the basic human rights that they have been rightfully owed for so long.”
Hof also credits his recent decision to house Scott Thorson, the ex-boyfriend of Liberace, with providing an eye opening insight into the gay rights struggle. “Everyone has a close friend or relative who is gay, whether they know it or not,” says Hof. “Having Scott live at The Bunny Ranch for a period of months right next door to my house while he got back on his feet allowed me to have day to day interaction with a gay person who over time became a very close friend. If someone were to tell me that my friend isn’t worthy of loving someone and being loved in return, that person and I would have a big problem.”
The offer is open to all gay, lesbian and transgender couples, and they can contact the Bunny Ranch immediately at pr@bunnyranch.com to reserve a date for their free wedding.
