IN A misleading headline (News Shopper, December 14) you state the Mayor of London is to be "invited to a gay couple's wedding".
The article goes on to say the two homosexual men in question are to get married' in Bromley and they hope Mayor Ken Livingstone will attend the ceremony.
In fact, these two men are not getting married and it will not be a wedding.
As you indicate rather obliquely at a later point, the two men are to register their relationship as a civil partnership.
Neither Bromley Council nor any other makes its buildings available for same-sex wedding ceremonies'.
Marriage is a state entered into by a man and a woman. It is incorrect and inappropriate to use the word when describing the relationship between two people of the same sex.
