In case you've been living under a big bigoted rock (or in denial), same-sex marriage is legal in the state of New York. While the marriages won't start officially for another 29 days, the passage of the marriage equality act couldn't be more perfectly timed to coincide with one of New York City's great traditions: the Pride Parade.

As always, the parade kicks off at noon on 36th street at Fifth Ave. and makes its way down to Christopher and Greenwich streets. This year's grand marshals are Dan Savage, Terry Miller, and the Rev. Pat Bumgardner. No word on whether Carl Paladino will show up. Send your fabulous photos to tips@gothamist or tag them under "Gothamist" in Fickr. Enjoy the gallery of last night's revelry at Stonewall while you plan tomorrow's festivities. The weather will be just fine.
