It's gonna be a REALLY big wedding...

T.R. Knight will join the Matthew Shepard Foundation to help kick off National Gay-Pride month on June 4 with a symbolic dusk commitment ceremony at the The Abbey in West Hollywood.

I've got four weeks to find someone to marry. I guess it will have to be a quick courtship!

At 8pm, couples from around the nation will "tie the knot" in an event officiated by West Hollywood Mayor Jeffrey Prang and witnessed by Judy Shepard. Couples will be wearing the Matthew Shepard Erase Hate pendant courtesy of Love and Pride jewelry designer, Udi Behr. (TR is wearing the jewelry in the photo) Love and Pride is the first online jewelry destination for people who believe in equality, diversity and tolerance for all. www.loveandpride.com

Behr created the Erase Hate pendant for Judy Shepard, in memory of her son, Matthew Shepard, who as we know was the victim of a brutal anti-gay hate crime in rural Wyoming ten years ago. 100 percent of net proceeds from sales of the pendant assist the Matthew Shepard Foundation.

Said Judy: "Wearing the Erase Hate pendant is a great way for people to express how they feel and promote the values of understanding, compassion and acceptance that were so important to Matthew. It has been ten years since the death of my son. Although we can not replace Matthew, we can join together to help spread the message of erasing hate."

I have so much admirtation for Judy Shepherd.
