Woo hoo! Same-sex couples could apply for marriage licenses in the District of Columbia beginning yesterday, and about 100 of them did, according to the
DC Agenda. The first weddings should be March 9.

The Superior Courts of DC site has more information, including the revised a marriage license application form, a form to request a civil wedding at the courthouse (10 to 15 guests will fit in the marriage ceremony room), and an application to celebrate marriages within D.C.
