The US Supreme Court has ruled that same-sex marriage is a legal right across the United States.
In a historic 5-4 decision, Justice Anthony Kennedy writing for the majority ruled that marriage is all constitutional right.
Before the ruling on Thursday, gay couples could marry in 37 states in addition to Washington DC.
It is unclear how soon marriage licences will be issued in states where gay unions were previously prohibited, reports the BBC.
