This is John Arthur.
Here he is with his husband, Jim Obergefell.
They've been together for 20 years.
John has gone from using a cane to a manual wheelchair to an automatic wheelchair.
They were delighted by the news that DOMA had been struck down.
However, they needed to travel to Maryland to get married.
They live in Ohio, where same-sex marriage is still banned. So they decided on marriage in Maryland, where only one partner needed to apply for the marriage license, and then travel there to have the ceremony.
This is more difficult than it might seem.
The private jet that was needed cost $12,700.
As soon as they heard the Supreme Court decision, the couple reached out to friends and family to see how they could make this trip happen.
Donations made the trip possible.
The ceremony was held in the plane, on the tarmac.
The couple celebrated briefly on the tarmac before heading back to Ohio.
Congratulations, John and Jim.
