Ellen-
first of all let me just say what an awesome person you are.You are always in a great mood and having a great time, i know we would best friends if we had the chance.... Your wedding pictures are gorgeous and so are the two of you and the love you share for each other. Being just recently married, I am a young bride some might say and so i was a little worried about what my family would say and they told me You could marry and dog and we would be fine as long as your happy. I think it is wonderful that you don't care what anyone thinks or about there opinions. Thats another thing we have in common. I say if it doesn't have to do with you put a cork in it. If other people are allowed to be happy why can't you!!! We could not afford a big wedding such as yours as the economy is in a bad state of mind right now but Mr. Barack Obama shall be taking care of that soon, also my Brother-in-law was fighting for our freedom in Iraq at the time. God Bless him. But when we do get the money for a big wedding eventually in a coulple of year i hope it is as BEAUTIFUL as yours. Good luck to the two you and maybe someday we'll all have lunch. You have your people call my people....wait do i have people? hahaha
sincerely
Megan

My girlfriend and I were only able to get the Domestic Partnership in CA back in 2005. Then when they back-peddled on allowing same-sex marriage I felt like we weren't valued as a people. The Prop 8 decision made me feel like I wasn't valued as a HUMAN. Seeing the two of you actually DO IT has instilled a faith in me that reminds me Who I Am and what the possiblity of my Being is, NOT who they decide me to be. Thank you, and blessings for your future and more importantly your Now.

Hi Ellen
I just love to watch your show. You make me laugh out loud so much and it feels so good to feel happy. Making people laugh and feel good inside is a special gift from God. Being the Catholic wife and mother, I honestly wasn't sure how I would feel about seeing these pictures...but the love between you both shines through so bright. How could anyone say that you should not be able to share the same life as a man and woman. Congrats to you both and may you have many many more years of that love that shines so bright in your wedding pics. Gods blessings.
Anna from Ohio.

Dear Ellen and Portia, this must be maybe the fifth comment I send, but I do love your show Ellen, and I think you are a great person, sensitive, decent, funny, lovable, and I wish that God always guide your life and Portia's.

You are living proof that 'love conquers all', and you two are wonderful people who have the fortune of finding love and happiness, something that not everyone can find and share. God bless you always. Sincerely, Liliana (a 65 year old grandmother of 5!)

Belated Congrats! What bliss! true love and true happiness is what it is all about. Be everso thankful each day that you found "it" because many of us do not and are still searching...

end entry

Ellen, congratulations I hope you both will be very happy forever.
I watch you every day, I am retired and enjoy your show very much and to see your face when you mention being married to the one you love is heartwarming. There is so much love when you spead of your bride that one can only choke up.
Congratulations again and keep up all the good work that you do for the unfortunate and people in need. With love.

I came to the site to enter your contest (I'm Canadian and lied and said I was from Toronto, Louisiana, to have my entry count) but was pleasantly surprised to see your wedding photos. Thanks for sharing your beautiful photos with us. You have already advanced things so far for gay people in your life, and these photos will take things even further, but most importantly, I'm very happy that you chose to share such a beautiful celebration of your love together, and with the World. Biggest congratulations, Ellen!!!

end entry

LOL I am a republican, conservative, southern Baptist from South Carolina. I think that it is great that you have found so much live in your life. I Got so tickled reading down though this posting sight. All of these people are so mad and angry and yet they took the time to find your website and look through the photos and make nasty comments. At least you got people talking. I am straight. I have been married for 11 years to the man of my dreams. We have two beautiful children and are blissfully happy. Love is an awesome thing. I think fear and intolerance are too. I hope so much that My God forgives these people for there intense need to judge for that is also a sin. I had an older lady tell us when we got married that the secret to a good Marriage was to not fall out of love at the same time. She said there will be happy times, sad times and angry times, but as long as there is balance there will always be happiness. She was soooo right. Good luck in your life together.

Wow...beautiful! Congrats and I just love ya!
You both look so very happy - what a wonderful moment for the both of you...many happy years to come!!

Again - Congrats!!

all you need is love, love is all you need...

Congratulations!! I have been following your career, Ellen, for many years. I could not have been more proud of your marriage-- unless you were one of my children. I think it would be nice to have a special show dedicated to mothers of children who prefer same sex unions. My son and his partner had to go to Canada to be married. The reaction for him has been about as mixed as yours. God Bless and one day may their be a realization that it is not our post in the order of things to judge. Keep going girl..... Bev

Hi Ellen! I am sooooo very happy for you and Portia, I wish you two all the happiness in the world! I also want you to know that "Canadians" just adore you! I've been a big fan of yours since I first saw your sit-com years ago. I watch your show everyday and my Fiancé, Jean (whom is French Canadian) had never heard of you before I came into his life(lucky him), is now your second best Canadian fan! I find it very sad and unfair that we cannot participate in your contests when we (Canadians) consider ourselves very devoted to your show. My biggest wish is that something can be done to change this for all of us Ellen fans in Canada. oops, ok I lied, that would be my second wish. The big one would be to be able to come to your show!!!!

Love ya,

Tracey Lavigne (Gracefield, Quebec, Canada)

Dear Ellen, I was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and came to this country about 18 years ago. I usually watch my international channel "Globo International" from a satelite dish (no choice of cable on this channel in my area). But I love watching your show at 9am and it's one of the few american shows I watch. The other day my jaw was sore when I realized it was frozen for half an hour while watching you on tv. I was smiling the whole time sitting alone in my living room. Too funny!
Thank you for bringing so much joy to our everyday lives and congratulations, you have a lot of talent.
Cristiane Amorim.

Dear Ellen & Portia, All my best wishes to you both, I will be married 32 yrs. this month. Our best advice, communication and allowing each other to to be their own person if that makes any sense!!

Ellen you both are a cute couple i hope ur marriage last forever

your both beautiful im glad you both are so happy!!!!

My vote was for equality but my family voted against me. Just because religion tells us to vote against same sex marriages does not mean we have to become followers. I fought hard here at home to open my families mind to change, but I'm sorry to say that I failed. Everyone deserves the right to marriage if they so choose. Just because we are straight doesn't mean we can do marriage any better.

You had a beautiful wedding and I hope that you have an even more beautiful life together. You both looked amazing in ever single picture took. I can only hope that my wedding and love will be as great as yours.

end entry

I believed in freedom, equality, but in pratice something give wrong... Where are the freedom in USA???

end entry

Just wanted to send Ellen and Portia my Hello's my Hug's :) I am sadden with what the world has become, but you know what...the fight for Equality isn't over.

Hello Ellen
Congrats on your marriage. I've dated my husband for 7 yrs before we got marry and marriage is a totally different feelings then dating. Even though I am only 27 and I've been a bit longer let me give you a little advice if you guys diagree. Every marriage there will be disagreement, if you really need to talk, go in the shower together, because its calm and soothing so there will be no yelling or raising of a voice. It helps!!

end entry

You both are so beautiful and the pictures tell a lovely story. My husband and I tried to remember that love is a daily decision....

end entry

Hi Ellen,

Several weeks ago I heard you on the radio talking with Ryan Seacrest about how being married is "just different." I know what you mean. My husband and I dated for 12 years before we got married, and being married *is* just different. A very good different! I want you to know how happy I am for you that you have that special feeling, too. You seem like a genuinely terrific person and I am glad to know you have something so very special.

Hello, Ellen and Portia,

I'm so happy for you two. It's great that California lifted the law on same-sex marriage, and pretty convienient for you! Also, don't pay any attention to the flamers. You have all the same rights that everybody else does, even if some people look at you with disdain.

As for the 'gary' guy..

You don't have to comment if you don't like what it's about. 'If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all'. Bet that one wasn't in the bible.

Portia& Ellen,
