Today marks a historic milestone as same-sex marriage is officially legalized in Thailand. To celebrate, the country is hosting a national parade honoring LGBTQ+ couples who registered their marriages today.

According to Pop base statistics, over 200 same-sex couples have registered their marriage at Thailand’s luxury mall, Siam Paragon, as the marriage equality law takes effect today.

It’s the first country in Southeast Asia to recognize marriage equality. The landmark bill marks a momentous win for the LGBTQ+ community, which has fought for more than a decade for the same marriage rights as heterosexual couples. 

More couples are still registering their unions in response to the new law in the country.
