Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi Get Married
Source: People

...."Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi were married tonight in an intimate ceremony at their home in Los Angeles," their spokesperson tells PEOPLE exclusively.

DeGeneres, 50, and de Rossi, 35, both wore Zac Posen and exchanged rings by Neil Lane during the Saturday ceremony....

The intimate ceremony was attended by 19 guests, including DeGeneres's mom Betty and de Rossi's mother Margaret Rogers (who flew in from Australia for the occasion), who witnessed the couple exchange handwritten vows.

The couple have been dating since December 2004. DeGeneres announced her plans to wed de Rossi during a taping of her talk show in May after California's Supreme Court ruled a previous ban on gay marriage to be unconstitutional....

16. Well, you maybe, but I'm worried about the couple next door who have been married
almost fifty years, what if this breaks THEM apart???
Their kids and grandkids are planning a 50th anniversary party, I'm sure, and they'll be so disappointed if this gay marriage thing ruins the plans... (/sarcasm)

I love Ellen. She is just such a hoot, and seems to be a very kind and sincere person. I don't know much about Portia, but she is a stunningly beautiful woman. I hope they will be very, very happy together.

12. So if Obama loses, at least we'll know who's to blame.

It's wonderful to live in a country that honors the rights of all its citizens. Parts of it, anyway.

15. I already feel like my wife and I are more distant because of this.
It looks like I'll have to divorce her and marry our cat.

18. Oh geez! That explains it...
Today, I felt this intense need to destroy my marriage, leave my husband and saunter on over to my
neighbor Sheila's house and have a mad affair with her.

That's why! It's Ellen's fault.

22. Ah, love. Many years of happiness to them both.
I think Mr H and I will manage to overcome this "threat" to our own marriage, but I don't know about the fundies down the street. Must be tough.

30. I'd like to know who officiated--a judge or clergy.
Just curious. It would be nice to know a religious tradition stepped up to the plate.
