Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi Share Wedding Day Footage
Ellen had announced her and Portia's engagement on her show, three months before their wedding and just after the California Supreme Court overturned a state ban on same-sex marriage. That November, voters passed Proposition 8, a ballot measure that defines marriage under the California Constitution as only between a man and a woman.
In 2013, a federal appeals court ruled that gay marriages could resume in California, after a federal judge struck down Proposition 8 as unconstitutional and the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that supporters of it did not have the legal right to appeal. In 2015, a Supreme Court ruling made same-sex marriage legal nationwide.
