It was a commitment ceremony. Oregon does not (yet) have marriage equality but I am hopeful. Consider, that when I was ~90 days old, the Supreme Court of the United States published their decision in Loving v Virginia ending, once and (hopefully) for all, anti-miscegenation laws after those being in force for well over a century in most states. We will have marriage equality one day and when we do, we're going to have another ceremony.
Cheers

The People tended to be small-minded and conservative and not very clever and were even distrustful of cleverness. And so, the children of the revolution were faced with the age-old problem: it wasn’t that you had the wrong kind of government, which was obvious, but that you had the wrong kind of people. As soon as you saw people as things to be measured, they didn’t measure up." (Terry Pratchett)
