Would the right wing have ANY chance to stop it in courts? The MA Supreme Court already ruled marriage is the only constitutional option, and opponents are trying to pass an ammendment. I think they probably wouldn't be able to do anything against it in courts, and the marriage would have to be recognized by the state.
This could open the door to a challenge to DOMA in the very near future. Things are certainly getting interesting:
Calif. AG Asks Court: Stop Gay Marriages

The court challenge came as 25 gay couples exchanged wedding vows Friday on the steps of village hall in New Paltz, N.Y., opening up another front in the growing national debate over gay marriage.
A county clerk in New Mexico issued 26 licenses earlier this month before the state attorney general declared them invalid. More than 30 gay couples in Iowa City, Iowa, were denied marriage licenses Friday by an openly lesbian county official who said she must uphold the law.
"What we're witnessing in America today is the flowering of the largest civil rights movement the country's had in a generation," said New Paltz' Green Party mayor, Jason West.
New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer refused a request for an injunction against the New Paltz ceremonies, noting that such a measure should only be a last resort. He did not issue an opinion on whether the marriages were legal.
