Fulton County held a mass wedding ceremony this afternoon in the Assembly Hall of the Fulton County Governmen Center in Downtown just hours after the U.S. Supreme Court made same-sex marriage legal in all 50 states. You can see more photos at our Facebook page from our photographer Isadora Pennington.
