Nearly one million gays married at the U.S.


Since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on 26 June that same-sex marriage is legal in all 50 states, 96,000 gay couples have exchanged vows.

The impact of the SCOTUS decision is clear: In the first half of 2015, same-sex couples comprised just 6% of all marriages. From July to October, same-sex couples comprised 11% of all marriages.

In 2013, an estimated 230,000 same-sex couples were married, or 21 percent of all same-sex couples. By June 2015, 390,000 same-sex couples were married, or 38 percent of all same-sex couples.

As of October, 486,000 same-sex couples are married, or 45 percent of all same-sex couples.

Same love, same rights, YAY!


Since June 26th, same-sex couples can marry nationwide

Nearly 500K same-sex couples tied the knot
