Mayor Bloomberg anticipates big gay wedding business for New York City
Mayor Bloomberg is looking to cash in on a big fat gay wedding bonanza.
"We'd love to have you come here," Hizzoner said yesterday of the two-bride and two-groom couples who can begin marrying in the Empire State next month.
"Stay in a hotel. Buy flowers, clothes, meals or whatever. It's good for the economy."
An analysis two years ago from then-city Controller William Thompson predicted a windfall for the city as large as $149 million within three years of gay marriage becoming legal.
