The First Same Sex Couple To Get Legally Married In Northern Ireland Celebrate

Belfast couple Robyn Peoples, 26, a healthcare worker from the city, and Sharni Edwards, 27, a waitress originally from Brighton, became the first same sex couple to get married in Northern Ireland.

Northern Ireland's prohibition on same-sex marriage was eliminated by the central government after a vote by British lawmakers when the province did not have a sitting government.
