County court clerks in South Florida finalized plans Friday to start marrying gay couples minutes after a federal stay in the case expires Monday night, with Broward County planning a 3 a.m. mass wedding and Miami-Dade and Monroe possibly starting hours earlier Monday.
....Broward Clerk Howard Forman said Friday morning that same-sex couples will be granted licenses 12:01 a.m. Tuesday at the clerk's main office in Fort Lauderdale, followed by a mass wedding at 3 a.m.
“It will be a big happening, that’s for sure,” said Forman, who has hired several extra clerks to work early Tuesday. “I deputized them already. Ordinary folks.”
Forman said he had no idea how many couples will come to get married at the Broward central courthouse office, but he noted a few weeks ago that there was “pent-up demand” for same-sex marriage licenses in Fort Lauderdale and nearby Oakland Park/Wilton Manors.
Families and friends are invited to join the couples for the mass wedding at 3 a.m. “If they want to participate, have them come by and just be patient,” said Forman, adding that there is no plan in Broward to begin marriages before the Hinkle stay expires Monday night.

The official site of announcing Broward’s decision to mock truth.
Is Gov. Scott doing anything, or have his advisors told him not to get involved in this issue because it might hurt his re-election chances?
3am seems appropriate.
Of course if they did they'd probably say that some crazed Tea Partiers dropped a nuke on paradise.
Onward to the gay nation comrades. We have much depopulation and infecting to accomplish..../s
Love that cartoon...LOL
At least its st 3am....
He was just reelected
A giant freak show at 3:00 a.m.
I notice there is a 30% discount on the licence fee if you have completed the Marital courses. I wonder what the courses consist of for the same polarity plugs and outlets?
3 a.m. — when night crawlers emerge.
Term limitations in FLA says he can’t run next time they have a gubernatorial election in 2018
“Gay Key West couple” is redundant.
Creatures of the night . . .
It was not designed for any other arrangement.
God don't cotton to being forced into such a position.
The blowback may not be today, but He ain't gonna suffer it long.
I hate to quibble with a headline but Broward Cty does not include Key West.
I am content with the decisions of some clerks in North Florida (Jacksonville Area) who went on to say the use of court houses for marriages is now not approved, unfortunately, for anyone even normal people.
Either that or self-destruction, Zechariah, chapter 5 sounds a whole lot like nuclear missiles being fired.
America has truly become a deviant cesspool of a nation. This is no longer a country I can look ‘up’ to, in any way, shape or form. Not with this kind of depraved crap going on.
