”I think it is going to be huge. It will definitely boost tourism to New Zealand with thousands and thousands going over to get married or as wedding guests,” said Reece Farmilo, the owner of Sydney’s Out Travel, one of the biggest gay travel agencies in Australia…New Zealand became the 13th country in the world to approve same-sex marriage and the first in the Asia-Pacific region.
