Watch: Heartland Transport

The Iowa Supreme Court ruling has been an inspiration for couples from across the country. In his short film "Heartland Express", Director Cody Stokes follows along with a group of Missourians who traveled to Iowa to marry and the reception they received in Iowa City, Iowa.

From codystokes.com:

On April 3, 2009, the Iowa Supreme court unanimously upheld the ruling that there was no governmental interest in denying citizens marriage licenses based on their sexual orientation. Immediately following, Ed Reggi and Scott Emanuel chartered a bus taking seventeen same-sex couples from St. Louis, MO to Iowa City, IA to be legally married.
