"First Comes Love," a comic and touching look at LGBT couples as they plan their dream weddings, has been renewed for a second season, Logo announced about the reality series.
In response to overwhelmingly positive viewer feedback to season one, the second season of "First Comes Love," which premieres at 10 p.m. Feb. 12 on Logo, continues to chronicle the up-to-the-last minute planning that goes into each featured couple's special day. The series is part of Logo's growing roster of programming that reflects and appeals to the diversity of people and experiences from the LGBT community.
Hosted by popular stand-up comedian Elvira Kurt and wedding planner extraordinaire, Fern Cohen, the series challenges about-to-be-married gay and lesbian couples to fulfill a long-held wish to have the wedding of their dreams. How will they express their love for each other? Will it be old-fashioned wedding bells or a brand new sense of style and tradition?
"With humor and grace, Elvira Kurt affectionately guides lesbian and gay couples through the powerful experience of celebrating their relationships," said Brian Graden, Logo president, in a statement.
Host Elvira Kurt is an alumnus of comedy troupe The Second City, has appeared on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and is a familiar face at the Michigan Womyn's Music Festival. Her specials have aired on Comedy Central, HBO, Showtime, CTV, CBC and The Comedy Network and she will host the recently announced Logo special Cruising the Caribbean with Olivia that airs this spring. Top wedding planner Fern Cohen runs a successful events firm in Toronto, Canada.
After the premiere episode on Feb. 12, subsequent episodes will air at 10 p.m. Mondays. Additional content and special features will be available on http://www.logoonline.com, including a streaming version of the first episode the day after the on-air premiere.
