Told You So - Gay Marriage IS Money

This is actually a follow-up to a previous blog a few months ago....

A new study out this week estimates that lesbians and gays will spend $684 million on cakes, photographers, and other services over the next three years due to the new marriage rules in California.  (Unless, of course, voters make the high court's ruling null this Fall.)

Researchers found that about half of the state's 100,000 same-sex couples will get married, and another 68,000 out-of-state couples will travel to California to exchange vows. The study estimates that over that period, gay weddings will generate $64 million in tax revenue for the state, $9 million in marriage-license fees for counites, and some 2,200 jobs.
