A multi-tiered project about the fragile yet resilient institution of marriage. Conceived and curated by Hubby, the project explores the idea of marriage through various media, but also takes this investigation several steps further by staging, on September 25th, 2011, a genuine and legal wedding. After a year long process of vetting applicants and conducting extensive video interviews, the couple was found, and now they've been HUBBIED.

In this unorthodox and truly once in a lifetime approach to tying the knot, Bec Ulrich and Ruben Diaz entrusted all the details of their wedding ceremony to HubbyCo.’s hand-picked collection of over two dozen artists, filmmakers, writers, musicians and designers—among them Barbara Bestor, Ed Ruscha, Joe Sola, Skip Arnold, Roger Herman and Michele O’Marah. Tailored specifically for Bec and Ruben, each artist reinterpreted an aspect or detail of the wedding, from invitations, music and car decoration, to photography and flowers.

Marriage, a broadly interpreted and lastingly resonant idea, remains the only widely accepted form of officially honoring the relationship between two loving individuals. From the elements and rituals surrounding the ceremony, to its social, legal and financial implications, the very act of this union deserves exploratory consideration. Get Hubbied was designed as a multi-media, multi-dimensional investigation and celebration of this time-honored institution, which manifested itself through Bec and Ruben’s ceremony.

CoTour Bettina Hubby Designed and edited by Mike Slack Softcover, 158 pages, 8.5 x 6.5 inches Saddle stitched, full color 2009 $40 CoTour, is a Hubby project that took shape in the form of a Los Angeles tour of Hubby's own neighborhood that brought in the talents of other artists alongside a concept to bring the sites to life. Chosen were ten places that have special meaning to her, ranging from Trader Joes to Cheetahs Strip Club to Skylight Books; for each location she created site-specific garments to pay homage to each site. Many talented friends were invited to wear and enliven the garments for a one-day bus tour that guided spectators to each site. Through various performances and scenes, the uniqueness of each site was brought to life even further by the personality and talents of each participant.
