RI gay couples leave state to get married; only 14 couples have used state's civil union option



After considering a Rhode Island beach wedding, Sarah and Theresa Masnik decided to marry — and stay — in Massachusetts, though they met in Providence and lived there for four years.
"We looked at each other," says Sarah, "and said why do we want to spend almost $50,000 and give it to a state that doesn't acknowledge us? We spent a lot of money out of state," said Theresa, "just so we could get married."
