First gay "weddings" started in Czech Republic
It is not exact wedding. It is called registered partnership and it is some kind of wedding between man and woman. The partnership is an alternative for partner couples with same sexual orientation, gays and lesbians.
Saturday 1st July was a first day when people can become registered partners. Three couples used this day to say their “Yes” in front of the office, their friends and relatives and at some places in front of cameras and journalists.
Officially first couple are men from Ostrava, the second male couple is from Kladno and first lesbian partners are from Ostrava.
The couples changed their rings and they common life has started.
Registered partnership has some of advantages of traditional wedding. As a example a doctor can tell to a registered partner the health of his partner or partners can inherit after themselves.
