Gay Couples Wed in Argentina

The first couples have tied the knot under Argentina's historic law legalizing same-sex marriage.

Jose Luis Navarro and Miguel Angel Calefato wed Friday morning in the city of Frias, Santiago del Estero Province. The two have been together for 27 years.

A few hours later, Argentine actor Ernesto Larrese (pictured at right) and his partner, actor-manager Alejandro Vannelli, were married in Buenos Aires.

Argentine president Cristina Fernandez signed the bill into law July 21, making her country the first in Latin America to legalize same-sex marriage.
