"Jill Turner. "

"I, Jill Turner, make. . . "

It is a historic day for gay and lesbian couples and one they have waited a long time for. The very first civil partnerships ceremonies will take place in just over 2 weeks and rehearsals are already under way.
. . . a happy chorus, come on!
hangs lovers in the air. .
Are you singing? Your turn. Come on!
Lovers in the air.
Not bad.

"This is, you know, the, the biggest step forward, and that sets a history in the mankind because it is allowing us now to have the same rights as opposite sex couples. "

It's a quality and recognition that we are partners. I mean we've been together 14 years.

Ohhhhh. . . . . In the world-spinning night. . . . .

At the gay wedding show in Brighton there was everything couples might need to make their day special and plenty of companies're chasing the pink pound.

Well, for those who want to make a real statement on their big day, how about a theme? Stores like this one are offering costumes from every period and to suit every taste. And if you want your guests to be talking for months, no better way to keep them happy than a pink chocolate fountain.

"Some people want fairgrounds, they want 50 drag queens, they want, you know anything and everything and to be honest with you, some of them don't have a budget of extravagance they're more than happy to spend together at their wedding. "

"It will be grand but I'm afraid not in this guise. "

"I think maybe Westminster Abbey. "

"Or simple? "

"Something simple. "

Brighton has already had more than 500 provisional bookings for so-called pink weddings. The government is expecting 22, 000 civil partnerships in the next 5 years. The new law is according to gay and lesbian campaigners as important as the decriminalization of homo-sexuality.
