“Our big day in the Big Apple.
Mr & Mr.,” followed by a 2015 quote from Anthony Kennedy, who is a Former Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States.

“No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice, and family […] It would misunderstand these men and women to say they disrespect the idea of marriage. Their plea is that they do respect it, respect it so deeply that they seek to find its fulfillment for themselves […] They ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law. The Constitution grants them that right,” Whaite quoted Kennedy’s 2015 statement on same-sex equality.
