Gay rights campaigners are to hold a wedding outside Holyrood as a sign of support for same sex marriage.
The UK Press Association reports:
Campaigners seeking legalised same-sex marriage will demand the Scottish Government backs the proposal without further delay at a rally.

The rally comes the day after both sides of the controversial debate clashed on the future of the way society defines marriage.
