Even as LGBT
activists across the country continue to protest the loss of
same-sex couples' right to marry in California, gay couples

Superior court judge Jonathan Silbert is scheduled to
enter a final judgment on the state's gay marriage
case Wednesday morning, the Associated Press reports.
Same-sex couples will then be immediately eligible to pick
up their marriage licenses, and some reportedly plan
to take their vows straightaway.

marriage applications with two boxes marked
"bride/groom/spouse" in place of two separate sections
