Wedding Equality for All
Yesterday was a great day for the San Francisco Gay and Lesbian community as City Hall married Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon in the first same-sex wedding to take place since gay marriage was legalized in California.
Del and Phyllis, gay-rights activists and co-founders of the first lesbian rights organization, Daughters of Bilitis, helped pave the way for Gay and Lesbians from San Francisco to Seattle and beyond to gain the coveted Marriage License and more importantly, the equal rights every committed partnership, gay or straight, is allowed.
In the the heart of Wedding Season 2008 a la Seattle, Rebecca Douglas Photography would like to say Congratulations to all you newlyweds in San Francisco!
May the rest of the country follow your lead.
