SOUTH CAROLINA: More Couples Marry

Via South Carolina's The State:
Two same-sex couples stood in line to pick up marriage licenses at the Richland County Probate Court first thing Thursday morning. One was Ed Madden and Bert Easter, the first to apply for a license in October, before appeals and judicial orders put the process on hold. The other was Tom McCutcheon and Ray Murray. Both couples immediately tied the knot, with Richland Probate Judge Amy McCullough officiating. Late Wednesday afternoon, two couples were issued licenses in Richland County as well, after the S.C. Supreme Court issued an order around 4 p.m. that allowed the state’s probate judges to issue the licenses after a previous order had prevented them.
