“The Rt. Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde, bishop of Washington, subsequently gave her authorization for churches within the diocese—including the National Cathedral—to offer holy matrimony to same-sex couples if they felt called to do so,” the website states. “The Very Rev. Gary Hall, dean, later made the decision allowing same-sex weddings to be performed at the National Cathedral.”
