The pair are scheduled to be married shortly after 5 p.m. PT at San Francisco's City Hall, about the same time a California Supreme Court ruling allowing same-sex marriages takes effect.

Though some other county offices will stay open late Monday to accommodate same-sex couples, clerks throughout the state expect a larger number of couples Tuesday morning.

Is there a huge line/rush for this?
I don't think it's a step in the right direction, but it's nothing to get worked up over.

I think we'll have to wait for tomorrow's news to see pictures of the lines, but this story says 130 couples have appointments after 5 pm today in San Francisco. (and guess who else is going to be there? :doh: )

Gloria Allred wears a suit the same color as the brides, but with more ornamentation, and stands under the chuppa with the brides? :doh:
