First Same Sex Marriage in Calaveras County Happens This Morning.....Updated with Video

San Andreas, CA...This morning in the Gazebo in front of the Calaveras County Government Center, Russ Murawski & Robert O'Keefe were the first local couple to take advantage of the recent court ruling allowing same sex marriages. Last night California became the second state to allow same sex marriage. This marks a historic occasion...


Russ and Robert exchanged rings and pledged their life long love and devotion to each other. Russ & Robert live in San Andreas and were accompanied by many of their friends and family members as they held their ceremony today.

We spoke with the County Clerks office and they informed us that this couple has been the first marriage license issued thus far. The May 15th California Supreme Court order overturning bans on same-sex marriage became final at 5:01 p.m. yesterday.
