“Greater Fort Lauderdale has long been a pioneering advocate of the LGBT community in Florida and our ‘Love is Love’ campaign is another example of how we hope to continue to positively impact our resident community and visitors by offering this special day to rejoice as now we all can say ‘I Do’ legally,” said Richard Gray, managing director, LGBT market, Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention & Visitors Bureau.
