History[]

A survey in the United Kingdom in 2011 showed that people who are married are more likely to be happy than those who are not married.[1]

Civil partnerships for same-sex couples were introduced in 2004 and became available in 2005. Same-sex marriage has been legal in England and Wales since 2014, with Scotland also allowing same-sex marriage later in 2014.
