Same-Sex Mass Wedding Hosted In Rio De Janeiro Believed To Be World’s Largest

Brazil has held what is believed to be the largest ever legal same-sex mass wedding.

The city of Rio de Janeiro was host to 132 same-sex couples, who were married in one mass wedding.

The ceremony was held to capacity in the auditorium of the School of Magistrates of Rio de Janeiro where each couple was allowed to bring ten guests.

The mass ceremony had in attendance the President of the Association of Magistrates of the State of Rio de Janeiro who said…

“It is very easy to put in the constitution that all Brazilians are equal before the law, although it is much more difficult to achieve this in reality.”

Same sex marriage in Brazil has been legal since May, when their federal court ruled that gay couples could apply to be married by the courts.
