First gay couple legally marries in Iowa.

This morning, a minister married two men, “sealing the state’s first legal same-sex wedding. Less than 24 hours earlier, a judge had thrown out Iowa’s ban on gay marriage.”

UPDATE: Polk County officials won a stay of a judge’s order today, halting pending marriage applications.
