Status of Gay Weddings -
No where in the United States of America can a same-sex couple legally marry. In 2000, Vermont passed a law permitting a "civil union" program, mimicking Vermont's state rights and benefits to couples, but none of the federal ones. Currently, there are 35 states with unconstitutional, so-called "Defense of Marriage Acts" (DOMA's), and 1 (Nebraska) that passed an anti-"civil union" bill.

But more importantly, there are 6 states that have introduced pro same-sex marriage legislation. The hope is as strong as ever that gay men, lesbians, bisexual and transgender persons shall indeed have full equality in the eyes of the law! And although your state may be listed on the "Adopted" list, Marriage Equality believes your right to marry will still be a reality!

Gay weddings are at the forefront of the minds of many. As gay weddings became legal in Massachussetts and gay unions remain legal in Vermont there are more gay weddings taking place each day then ever before.

Gay weddings, gay or lesbian unions or commitment ceremonies are opportunities for gay and lesbian couples to express their love and commitment.
