Colorado Civil-Unions Law Goes Into Effect Today; Hundreds of Gay, Lesbian Couples Exchange Vows

Hundreds of Colorado gay and lesbian couples put an official government seal on their relationships after midnight today (May 1, 2013) after the state's civil-unions law took effect, according to the Denver Post website.

Many gay and lesbian couples received a partnership license and then exchanged vows.

The couples gushed over their opportunity to hold the first piece of government acknowledgment of their relationships, granting them many of the same rights as married couples.

The group represented a wide array of ages and races, with some in formal attire and others in jeans and T-shirts.
