There will be a million gay marriages

On Saturday, January 24th 2025, Dales Patrick and John Wilson will get married in front of their 28 guests at a church in their hometown, California. Their wedding will attract some extra attention, since it will be the 1 millionth gay marriage worldwide.

Currently there are 20 states that recognize same sex marriages where in approximately around 150000 wedding certificates were issued last year. Another 12 states allow civil unions, of which some most likely will accept gay marriages in the near future. The statistics is not that precise to know exactly where the millionth gay marriage will take place so Dales and John’s wedding is more symbolic choice based on estimation by gay organizations.
