Mass LGBT Wedding Held In Manila

MANILA, PHILIPPINES - JUNE 28: A Filipino LGBT (Lesbian, Gay,Bisexual, Transgender) couple exchange 'Rite of Holy Union' vows during mass 'wedding rites' on June 28, 2015 in Manila, Philippines. A small Christian ecumenical group officiated the wedding of one gay and 14 lesbian couples in simple ceremony rites held in a basketball court in the middle class district of Quezon City. Same sex marriage unions are not officially recognized under Philippine laws and is staunchly rejected by the dominant Catholic church in the Philippines. Organizers said todays rites had a special relevance following the landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling on gay marriage. (Photo by Dondi Tawatao/Getty Images)
