SDWNY would like to thank City of Buffalo Clerk Gerald Chwalinski and his staff in the clerk's office for being open for business on Sunday, July 24, 2011, to process marriage licenses, and perform marriages, the first day it was legal in New York State. SDWNY would also like to thank attorney Michael Kuzma for coming in at the spur of the moment, to provide much needed notary services! With NYS Supreme Court Judges on standby providing waivers for the 24 required period between the obtaining of a marriage license and the act of marriage itself, Chwalinski performed numerous wedding ceremonies within City Council Chambers.
SDWNY was on hand to offer complimentary bottles of wine to the over two dozen happy couples who either received marriage licenses or were married that day! The wine was a gift from the Carl and Sophie Baj family. Congratulations to all the beautiful, happy couples!
