More marriage news. Francisco Maroto and his partner of 14 years, Enrique Rodriguez. Maroto made his little Spanish town famous for weddings (gay and straight) and has finally decided to have one of his own.
Time wrote this isn 2007, but the couple weren't actually married yet:
"When the gay-marriage law was passed, Maroto saw an opportunity, deciding to turn his community into a sort of Iberian Las Vegas, albeit one with stacked-stone houses and black slate roofs. 'Some mayors were saying they wouldn't marry gays. I said I would,' Maroto recounts. When Campillo's justice of the peace resigned in protest, Maroto, who took advantage of Spain's new law in 2005, turned the post over to his husband."
Congratulations guys. But, seriously, am I the only queer without a wedding band these days?
