New Jersey became the 14 state to legalize same-sex marriages, however, after Republican Governor Chris Christie's appeal, the case is to be brought back to the court in January.

AFP reports that the supreme court refused to block the marriages that were already set up.

Monday is when the unions were to be allowed, and many couples have planned to marry one minute after midnight.

Despite Christie''s oppositions, many state elected officials are still planning to officiate marriage ceremonies.

Cory Booker, Democratic mayor of Newark, tweeted his dedication to officiate the weddings.

On Sep. 28, Judge Mary Jacobson ruled that same-sex marriages be legal as of Oct. 21, making her the first judge to use the Supreme Court decision to allow gay marriage where it is forbidden.

"...same-sex couples must be allowed to marry in order to obtain equal protection of the law under the New Jersey Constitution," Jacobson wrote.

Prior to the legalization, gay couples in New Jersey were allowed civil unions, and denied certain benefits that married couples were allowed.

USA Today reports that some couples are still confused on how to proceed.

"There's a lot of mass confusion and it boils down to the fact that the state should have issued guidance a week ago," Troy Stevenson, executive director of Garden State Equality, said.

Couples who obtained a liscence must wait three days before they can marry. Stevenson and other lawyers are trying to find judges who will waive the three-day rule.

With all the excitement, there is still bad news. Democratic Senator, Ray Lesniak, said the Supreme Court's decision could be overturned.

State legislature is trying to gather enough votes in order to override Christie's veto of a same-sex marriage bill, with him wanting to put the issue on a ballot.
