In Britain it won't be more than a month until the new law that offers the chance to gay and lesbian couples to be united in a civil partnership will come out. Even if the term will not be used by the government, it still means the same thing: gay weddings.

The first ceremonies
that will take place will be on December 21st and the couples that would like to get married will have to subscribe to a list with a certain time before the event will actually take place.
Encouraged by this law, a lot of companies that have to do with wedding arrangements have already offered their services to the future weds.

The firms that organize the wedding have already made offers to present the gay couples: photographers promote pictures with two brides or of grooms, the cake companies present on top of the cake two man holding each other, and everything else which is personalized and can catch the attention of the in love couples.

In the first five years, the government predicts that somewhere around 22.000 gay couples will make this step. This civil partnership will recognize the people the legal right that they have as partners in a relation.

But as everyone is looking for some more resources of money, a lot of businesses that deal with such things have immediately understood the need for diversity also in their offers.
Aled Humphreys, a hotelier of Newbury, said: "I think it might turn out to be a huge market and ... we are forward thinking venue, somewhere that is trying to be progressive".
