Is there a symbol/logo used by groups fighting for equal marriage rights for gays and lesbians?
I'm getting married in a few weeks, and though the day will obviously focus on us, we wanted to include something in the wedding program about equal marriage rights. I was thinking I had seen a symbol that was a blue rectangle with a yellow equals sign but I'm not 100% sure that it was about marriage rights. Does anyone know what that symbol is about or can recommend another one? Preferably something that will look good in a small size. We were thinking just a symbol with "Vince and Stephanie support equal marriage rights for all." Or, something like that at the end of the programs.

1. I think that's the HRC symbol -
Human Rights Campaign - so that should work I would think.

3. Ahh. OK. Thanks to both replies.
I couldn't remember why I thought that was an appropriate symbol. If I had read it before or just assumed it was something to do with equal marriage rights. Thanks again.

5. Use the white knotted ribbon and not the HRC logo -- please!

The HRC is NOT an activist group, even though they think they are.

on edit: And, what a lovely idea!
