Greenwich CT welcomes same-​​sex couples

If you’re a same-​​sex couple looking for a marriage license, you’re going to have to travel. So take the train to NYC, switch stations, and climb on the train for Green­wich. Since November 12, 2008, Green­wich has performed more than 139 same-​​sex weddings, more than any other town in CT.

Why? Well, why not? It’s gorgeous, and it’s close.

Tip: get married there and consider staying around for some sort of cele­bra­tion. Might as well support the state that supports you.
