Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie last week encouraged couples from across the U.S. to get married in Hawaii once the state's marriage-equality law takes effect Dec. 2. "There are several states where you can get married. But I think I can say without fear of contradiction, paradise awaits," Abercrombie said in an interview, adding that couples should consider Hawaii for their honeymoon. Researchers estimate that the state will get $217 million economic boost because of the law.
