Proposition 8 was not retroactive. When it passed in November 2008, it prevented any new same-sex marriages, but did not nullify existing ones. In June 2013, when Proposition 8 was struck down by the US Supreme Court, same-sex marriage resumed in California and the same-sex marriages performed there before Proposition 8 continued to be legally valid for all purposes, both state and federal.
