"I now pronounce you man and wife." .. Doesn't really apply.
But it's up to the church, they can run it however they wish. However, on paper, it should all be the same, buddy.

Weddings today are very individual. Everybody gets to do what they want these days. Vows are written by the couple, and you get to pick and chose any sort of ritual you want, whether it's indoors in a "church" or in a house, or outdoors in a park, or at the beach... The sky's the limit (for now anyway... until we start marrying folks in space)!! We gays are a creative bunch! We are already doing ceremonies and creatively building "marriages" around the back door, so to speak, by finding alternative ways to support each other under the current laws. A little thing like a ceremony is a piece of cake----wedding cake!!

i'm not religious so i don't know how right i am in saying what i'm about to say, and i don't really have a strong opinion on this subject. if anything it would be allow it because you marry the person you love right? and if you love the same sex then so be it. but the thought i just had is the opposite- some people don't believe in having children outside of wedlock, so marriage may be seen as something to do in order to have children. and back when people didn't get divorced people would get married to have families. therefore same sex marriages shouldn't be allowed because you cannot create a child if you are both the same sex(i'm not including adoption or similar when i say this, because i'm guessing marriage was created way before adoption) i don't belive that, but it's a thought.

Hadn't really thought about it...
Is there a specific reason why (other than gender) any of the ceremony should be any different?

I imagine it would be the same except for their being two brides or two grooms...other than that I think both ceremonies are about commitment to one another...

Well, I once heard a minister say she likes to read from David and Jonathan for men, and Ruth and Naomi for women.
But I'm Pagan and my wife is atheist, so it doesn't really apply to us.

doesn't the couple in question usually have a big say in the ceremony?

My church would never allow them, so I don't have to worry about it. God doesn't accept such unions, anyway.

I would imagine no bride walking down the aisle, and should end with "I now pronouce you husbands" or "...wives"
