On May 26, 2020, Costa Rica legalized same-sex marriage.
Alejandro Zúñiga
One year ago today, Costa Rica became the first Central American country to legalize same-sex marriage.
At midnight on May 26, 2020, Costa Ricas Family Code dropped the sixth item of article 14, which had said marriage between people of the same sex was legally impossible.
Minutes later, Daritza Araya Arguedas and Alexandra Quirós Castillo became the first same-sex couple to wed under Costa Ricas new legal framework. Their small in-person ceremony was streamed online in thousands of homes across the country.
