Thousands of demonstrators took to the campaign of protest in several cities throughout the state. This can be interpreted as a signal that the struggle for the right of same-sex couples to register their relationship is not over yet. State Senator Ruben Diaz, a minister who was the only Democrat who voted against same-sex marriage, pledged in his address to the crowd gathered to express their disapproval of what he and other opponents of same-sex marriage will try to ensure that prisoners on Sunday marriages were annulled . Ruben Diaz said the judge violated the law by abandoning the traditional twenty-four waiting period without good cause.
"We're going to prove to them next week, that their current actions are illegal," he said during his speech, which was held in Spanish. "Today we begin the battle! Today we start a war! "

But in general, in the lobby of the municipal clerk's office in Manhattan was an atmosphere of celebration and cheers and applause were heard every time the pair passed them on to the white-blue marriage certificate. Balloons waved over the heads of the crowd. One couple was dressed in kilts, the other - in a sparkling crown. Children scurried back and forth, enjoying the unexpected holiday.
Couples who, in some cases, waiting for opportunities to get married for many years, did not hide their emotions. The bridegroom Douglas Robinson tearfully exclaimed, "I agree, I swear to God, I agree !!!", when asked whether he takes Michael Elsasser his wife.
The first couple marries in Manhattan were semidesyatisemiletnyaya Phyllis Siegel and Connie vosmidesyatipyatiletnyaya Kopelou who have been together for twenty-three years. Kopelou arrived in a wheelchair and stood with her using a walker.
Witnesses tearfully watched as two elderly women have sworn to respect and cherish each other and then kissed.
"I gasped. I almost could not breathe, "said Siegel, after the ceremony. "It's amazing. The fact that it really happened to us - that we finally have the right to legally marry, like everyone else. "
