Summary:
It looks as though gay couples are taking full advantage of their new right to wed in California. In the two days since the ban was lifted, over 2700 marriage licenses were issued. The statewide average for a whole week in June is 2,460.
The marriage licenses were issued to both same-sex and heterosexual couples, although county clerks in many locations indicated that the vast majority handed out Tuesday were to gay couples. The new marriage application replaces the terms “bride” and “groom” with “Party A” and “Party B” and does not indicate whether the people marrying are of the same sex.
