is there somewhere in thailand my lesbian friends can get married? buddhist, christian or private is fine.

i am guessing it would be in bangkok.

Most likely it's possible, although it will not be a legal marriage.  Hopefully, some of our members will have ideas of where to look.

 

You can always do the ceremonial marriage for family and friends, but it has no legal status... Civil Union bill is still not put in vote after more than 6 months approval by the government.. They are deliberately delaying it I suppose

It's possible to do the Buddhist ceremony and later go back to any of their countries to get legally married.

 

Many people here are only married through the Buddhist ceremony. If that's enough for them, tell them to go for it. But it's not possible to be legally married for them.

a couple of myThai lesbian friends are married in so much as they did the Buddhist ceremony at a local temple . I find it quite strange that in such a generally gay friendly country relationships are still not allowed to be formalized 

thanks for the response!
