The managing director of marketing solutions company Hello Thrive is entering the publishing space with the launch of gay wedding magazine Groom + Guy.

Matty Bulger, publisher and editor of Groom + Guy and MD of Hello Thrive, told Mumbrella the idea for the magazine was born when he was browsing in a magazine store.

“How it all started is: I was at a magazine store having a look and I’ve always been a fan of high fashion photography and that leads into wedding photography and I just had a moment where I thought ‘there’s not a gay wedding magazine’ which is a bit odd,” he said.

I want to subscribe just to support the magazine. My life partner–in private we called each other husbands for 42 years–died in 2012 before the U.S. Supreme Court spread legal marriage to all of the 50 states.
