Lachlan Wood and Laura Tibbets are 22 from Wagga Wagga New South Wales. They are living and studying in Wollongong. Last year they got married in Las Vegas. Their wedding followed the structure of most of the cliché Vegas weddings, they said their vows in the ‘little white chapel tunnel of love’, their marriage was consummated by a Priest and they were both drunk.  What was not so normal about their marriage is that Lachlan is a homosexual as is Laura. They got married to protest Australia’s marriage laws, denying homosexual couples the right to marry. 
In the aim to further publicise the homosexual marriage rights they plan on walking from Melbourne to Sydney in February 2014, stopping in Country towns to speak with people about homosexuality, their experiences and to combat the homophobic culture that is found in many country towns.
