Same-sex couples in D.C. set to say 'I do'
March 9, 2010 7:18 a.m. EST

Washington (CNN) -- Dozens of same-sex couples plan to marry in the District of Columbia on Tuesday, the first day that such unions will be legal in the nation's capital.

The new law survived a Supreme Court challenge last week, when the measure went into effect, but couples had to hold off until Tuesday because of a three-day waiting period.

Sinjoyla Townsend and Angelisa Young say they have waited for years for this day. They were first in line last week to apply for a marriage license at Washington's marriage bureau. They will be among the first to marry Tuesday.

"We're very excited," Townsend said last week. She and Young were among 100 couples applying for licenses.

The district joins Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont in allowing same-sex couples to marry.

1. Shouldn't it be "Do you take this person as your lawfully wedded spouse?"

5. What did it say originally?
Sounds like it may be worth a chuckle.

6. He used 'man' instead of 'person' and I used 'spouce' instead of 'spouse'
We both edited our errors.

3. Please be sure to report on the epidemic of divorces caused by same-sex marriage
so far in Iowa the number has been staggering. 0 I think it is.
I have been harassing a real right wing representative to get a divorce and make his prediction come true. But wife #1 took him to the cleaners a couple years ago and I don't think he can handle another one.
