Tomorrow is June 17th. Nothing special, and yet an important day for Californian gay or lesbian couples: on June 17th the new law which makes gay marriages legal and possible will be reinforced. The thousands of couples which have been waiting for this moment since so long ago, saw their dream come true last month, when California decided to give gay couples the same rights as heterosexual couple had.

There are so many couples wanting to take advantage of the new law as soon as possible, that all county offices expect to be overwhelmed with the multitude of marriage ceremony requests. Some of them, like the San Francisco County, even thought to increase the number of clerks, in order to cope with the increased demand for matrimony services.

June 17th is going to be a big day for California’s history, and many celebrations have already been announced within the lesbian ans gay communities.

Gay couples marriages were already legal in several countries, like UK, as more and more, conservative people start to realize that the right to get married to whom you want should be part of the human rights. Now gay people in California will share the joy of being granted all other rights of heterosexual married couples, like inheritance rights.
