ABOUT THE CONTEST

BACKGROUND

When the Clerk of Kern County cancelled the service of officiating civil marriage ceremonies four days before the State Supreme Court ruling legalizing same-sex marriages went in effect, Café Co-founder & CEO Russell Bass decided to take a bemused, yet outraged stand by running this ad in the Bakersfield Californian.

In inviting Lesbian and Gay couples of Kern County to come to Berkeley we decided to offer the Café's charming wedding facilities to host a ceremony at no charge and treat a wedding party of 10 to a gratis reception as well for the contest winners.
