David just asked me,
As I recall, there's not a law like MA's in CA which would ban out-of-state couples.
I dared Dave to head downstairs and whistle "Chapel of Love" around his phobic Bother-in-Law (aka a blood relation of mine I'd rather not admit or claim).
It feels great to celebrate now, but I fear this victory may be short lived - the fundagelicals will be out in force in Nov. to try again to take this away.

Amendments that are crafted to remove now-exiting rights tend to not have a very good chance of getting anywhere.

They tried and failed here. After a couple of years of same-sex marriage, with the sky staying firmly in place, most folks in MA tended to look at it as a non-issue...especially in light of other important stuff going on that actually *did* affect them...

Unfortunately, initiative constitutional amendments only need 50% plus 1 to pass and can only be repealed by the voters.
It strikes me that constitutional amendments should require 2/3 of the voters to approve.
