On this day in 2001: the first legal same-sex marriages took place in Amsterdam. Just after midnight on April 1, 2001 history was made in Amsterdam as the world’s first legal same-sex marriages were officiated at City Hall. Led by then-mayor Job Cohen, four couples said “I do” in a ceremony that marked the beginning of marriage equality worldwide. The Netherlands had passed landmark legislation the year before, becoming the first country to fully legalise same-sex marriage and adoption. 📷 Getty #Amsterdam #SameSexWedding #WLW #MLM #LGBTQNews
