"Let the wedding bells ring across the land. Today's Supreme Court ruling affirms that love is love. In all 50 states, men and women can marry the person they love, share their lives together, and have it recognized under law, with the benefits that come with the institution of marriage.

"It's remarkable how far we have come as a country, in what seems like a short amount of time. We have many more steps forward to go to ensure equality for all, but I have supreme confidence that we will get there."
