Congratulations!!!

First same-sex couple weds in D.C.

Same-sex couples began marrying in the nation’s capital today, with some lining up as early as 3:30 a.m. to pick up their licenses from D.C. Superior Court. The first couple to officially tie the knot was Angelisa Young and Sinjoyla Townsend, who met in a constitutional law class at the University of the District of Columbia. They wed at the office of the Human Rights Campaign, along with two other couples. Watch part of Young and Townsend’s ceremony here:

2. I always cry at weddings

and that was fabulous. I loved the wording changes in the vows that made it expansive.

All Best Angel and Sinjoyla!
