Abstract:

Until 2014, North Carolina explicitly denied gay and lesbian couples the right to marry. The topic was a controversial debate and financial advisors argued that accepting same-sex marriage would have a positive economic impact to the state. When same-sex marriage became legal in North Carolina, the local wedding industry skyrocketed.
