A couple walked into a Norfolk, Virginia courthouse and married a few months ago, after successfully applying for all the necessary legal documentation. At the time, no eyebrows were raised and the short ceremony went off without any complications.

Since then, Virginia officials have realized that the bride, Justine McCain, was actually Justin McCain. Same sex marriages are illegal in Virginia, and now the couple faces charges.

There is some gray area, though -- if the couple intentionally misled officials, then there's trouble, but if McCain is transgendered and actually identifies as female, then there may be no fraud, though the marriage still may not be legal. There is very little legal precedent for transgender marriages.

Newport News marriage application paperwork has since changed the words "bride" and "groom" to "male applicant" and "female applicant."
