WASHINGTON - It's a day of wedding bells for some gay couples in Washington as same-sex pairs began picking up marriage licenses on their first eligible day after the law changed last week.
Fifteen licenses were picked up in the first hour the marriage bureau was opened and two couples already got married and returned to pick up their certificates, courthouse spokeswoman Leah Gurowitz said.
Some couples planned ceremonies the same day at a gay rights group's office while others said they'll wait and have more elaborate celebrations.
