Same-sex marriage in Alabama
Same-sex marriage has been legal in the U.S. state of Alabama since June 26, 2015, after the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges, though not all counties participated, taking advantage of an exemption dating from the Civil Rights Era that allowed counties to avoid performing interracial marriages. On August 29, 2019, the state changed its marriage law, replacing the option of counties issuing marriage licenses and performing ceremonies with the requirement of counties issuing and recording marriage certificates. All counties complied, including with interracial and same-sex couples.
