Same-sex couples marry outside Supreme Court
More than two dozen same-sex couples exchanged vows in front of the U.S. Supreme Court on Friday.
25 couples traveled from Columbus, Ohio, to the nation’s capital as part of the “C-Bus of Love” ride the online group MarriageEvolved organized to highlight the lack of marriage rights for gays and lesbians in 38 states. Those who traveled to D.C. to get married were also able to walk down the steps of the Supreme Court after they tied the knot.
“We’re holding our head up being proud to do this,” Monica Taylor of Wyandotte, Mich., who married her partner of more than 15 years, Jeanette Bowton, told the Washington Blade. “Love is love.”
Dennis Niekro and Paul Richmond of Columbus, Ohio, who have been together for seven and a half years, said they decided to travel to D.C. to get married because they are unable to tie the knot in the Buckeye State.
“We love each other and we want to spend the rest of our lives together,” Niekro said.
