I *have* thought that a ceremony involving a woman supported by her mother and a man supported by his father could be particularly moving. And with same-gender parents, it would seem much less that the offspring is "owned by" the parent.
However, we're not doing it. We want to be together at the start, to symbolize that this is the formalizing of an existing relationship, NOT the beginning of a new one.
