Iowa Gay Male Couple Gets Married Before Marriage Ruling Stayed

TowleRoad has pictures of a Iowa's first married, gay male couple, Tim McQuillan, 24 (left), and Sean Fritz, 21 (right), both Iowa State University students. They were able to apply for a marriage licence, pay $5 to waive the 3-day waiting period, receive the licence and appear before a Unitarian Universalist minister to have it solemnized in the roughly 9 hour time frame in which marriages were available to same sex couples in Polk County, Iowa thanks to a trial court ruling on Thursday. In its coverage of the story, the New York Times has pictures of Sean and Tim kissing (shown below).
