Gay and lesbian couples have had the opportunity to marry in Canada since July 20, 2005, when the Equal Marriage Bill was enacted, making it legal for same-sex couples to exchange vows and subsequently live as married couples with full rights in Canada.

Since then, Canada has emerged as a favored destination for gay and lesbian weddings. Note: Although marriages of U.S. citizens can be conducted in Canada, they still are not legally recognized in all states south of the border.

Why Honeymoon in Canada?

Because Canada is a vast and beautiful country, it's as appealing as a destination for a honeymoon as it is a wedding.

Couples having a destination wedding in Canada may want to consider marrying in one place and taking their honeymoon elsewhere in the country. For example, you could combine a city/country experience.

Imagine holding your wedding in sophisticated Montreal, charming Quebec City, or big-city Toronto and then heading west to the romantic wilds of Banff, Lake Louise, Victoria, or even Calgary for a scenic honeymoon in the countryside.
