AN ACT RELATING TO SOLEMNIZATION OF MARRIAGES

This bill authorizes Joseph Couto to legally marry Brandon Kemmy and Jacqueline Manousos in Tiverton, Rhode Island, on or around August 2, 2026. It grants Couto the specific legal power to perform this ceremony under the state's existing marriage laws, overriding any other conflicting regulations. The act becomes effective immediately upon passing through the legislature. This legislation is a procedural measure that facilitates a single, specific wedding event rather than changing broader marriage laws.
