Australia is celebrating the country’s first on-screen gay marriage after the country voted to legalize same-sex marriage. The long-running show Neighbours made history when Aaron Brennan (Matt Wilson) and David Tanaka (Takaya Honda) married.

Fans were rightfully emotional online:

“A brilliant episode: emotional, funny and a big statement for equality. Thank you #Neighbours,” one wrote.

“@MattyWilson88 @takayahonda that was a beautiful episode! Definitely one that will be remembered for years to come,” another said.

Neighbours alumni Jason Donovan and Kylie Minogue’s song played, “Especially for You,” adding an extra-emotional touch for fans of the show.

So what does the future hold for the pair?

“[laughs] Well you know I can’t give away too much! But let’s just say there’s plenty of storyline left for ‘Daaron’ on the show. There’s going to be a few little surprises, but there’s going to be a lot of positivity. They’ll be ups and downs, but they know where they stand with each other and they know they’ve got each other’s back. I’m looking forward to where they end up over the next year and possibly into the future. I’m sure the audience is going to enjoy watching them grow as a couple.”

A great interview from Attitude gives many more details about the wedding.
