GLBTQ Mobile Marriage Summit Launched

GLBTQ Mobile Marriage Summit off to a great start!

The Same Love, Same Rights Mobile Marriage Summit was launched in August at our GLBTQ Wedding & Family Expo in Tenafly, NJ. Another Summit followed, October 7th in Portland, OR, where business owners, couples, gay rights activists and allies gathered to join in celebration of the pending domestic partnership legislation... while also rallying for True Equality in Oregon.

Presentations were offered by Beth Allen of Allen2 Law, by Basic Rights Oregon, and by Cindy and Marianne Puechl-Sproul, the founders of RainbowWeddingNetwork and the Same Love, Same Rights Initiative.

"It was really an inspiring afternoon," raved one couple, who were in the planning stages of their own ceremony. Others offered similar comments, sharing a feeling of re-energized motivation to get involved with the important issues surrounding marriage equality.

The Mobile Marriage Summit is traveling the nation, and coming soon to a city near you!
