Iowa Marriage


Olly Staneslow, left, and Judith Weir, who spent seventeen years together before getting married in Iowa last year, smile while reading a book to each other in their St. Paul, Minn. home, Friday, April 2, 2010. The two are just one of more than 1,000 same-sex couples who traveled to Iowa to get married between April and December 2009. Since the Iowa Supreme Court decision that legalized same-sex marriage on April 3, 2009, the state has become a wedding destination for couples across the country. (AP Photo/Janet Hostetter)
