Gov. Martin O'Malley and "Project Runway" host Tim Gunn will be among the guests of honor later this month for an event to support same-sex marriage in a referendum vote in Maryland, reports The Huffington Post.

The event also features a special auction in which each table of eight will feast on a unique five-course menu prepared by a who's-who of DC chefs.
