March 26 and 27 were two historic days as the United States Supreme Court reviewed Proposition 8, the legislation that revoked the right of gay people to marry in the state of California, and the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), the 1996 law that deemed that the federal government would only recognize marriages between one man and one woman.
I'm hoping that the Supreme Court rules both Prop 8 and DOMA unconstitutional in the broadest of possible rulings, so that the myriad of same-sex couples who are seeking marriage equality can finally walk down the aisle. For those who are planning their weddings (and those who are simply romantics looking forward to their big days), I've pulled together 50 songs (some of my personal favorites), from Céline Dion to Luther Vandross, for each of what I hope will soon be the 50 states with legal gay marriage.
Have a listen and get yourself in the mood for (equal) love!
