Share Your Same-Sex Marriage Story on Patch

Written by Valerie Engler

If wedding bells will soon be ringing for you, or someone you know, we want to hear about it. Post your same-sex marriage story on Patch.

It's the day that many Minnesotans have been waiting for. On Aug. 1, judges around the state will do something they've never done: officiate weddings between same-sex couples.

Are you knee-deep in wedding plans or do you know a happy couple who will finally tie the knot?

Do you work in the wedding industry? Have you seen an increase in happy couples flocking to your services or is it business as usual?
