Two gay Arizona men who are planning to be married in May 2019 created a same-sex Barbie set with two Ken dolls as a birthday present for an eight-year-old niece who will be one of the flower girls. Then they urged Mattel, the toy company that makes Barbie dolls, to make a gay wedding set, prompting Mattel to agree to meet with them to discuss the possibility.
Matt Jacobi and Nick Caprio noticed that Mattel only creates wedding-style Barbie and Ken doll sets. That triggered them to purchase two Barbie wedding sets and switch the dolls so that the Ken dolls were in a single package, according to The Blaze.
