Yes. Effective May 14, 2013, all states in Brazil must permit same-sex couples to marry. Starting May 5, 2011, all states in Brazil must recognize same-sex marriages.
Since 2004, Brazil has permitted same-sex "stable unions" which are like common-law marriages in terms of rights and privileges in Brazil.
On May 5, 2011, the Brazilian Supreme Court formally declared that gays and lesbians have the right to enter civil unions throughout all of Brazil and that the rights and benefits of those civil unions are identical to that of heterosexual marriage.

∙ 12y agoYes. Marriage is marriage in Portugal, whether between persons of the same or opposite gender. Normally, one may apply for naturalization after six years of residence in Portugal. However, a foreigner who has been married to a Portuguese citizen for three years may become a citizen of Portugal by mere declaration, without any residency requirement.

Does South Carolina allow marriage by proxy?
As an attorney, I represent many persons who are enlisted in, or associated with the U.S. Armed Forces. Proxy marriage is a popular solution for many of them, especially due to the challenges of military deployment. While it is not possible to solemnize (officiate) a proxy marriage in South Carolina, nevertheless, a proxy marriage which is legally solemnized in a different state or nation, where it is legal to do so, will be legally recognized as a valid marriage under South Carolina law. So a proxy marriage, officiated correctly elsewhere, is indeed a legal marriage in South Carolina. It is very important to differentiate between: (1) whether or not it is possible to legally solemnize (officiate) a proxy marriage in a particluar jurisdiction; and (2) whether or not said jurisdiction, even if it is not possible to legally solemnize a proxy marriage there, will nevertheless recognize a proxy marriage that is legally solemnized (officiated) in a different jurisdiction in which it is legal to so so. As per the principle of commity, virtually any state or nation will recognize the legal validity of a proxy marriage which is officiated in a jurisdiction which allows for it. So a proxy marriage in Montana, Colorado, Texas, California, El Salvador, or Brazil will be legally recognized in all 50 states, in the U.K., Australia, Germany, Singapore, and just about every other nation on the planet. A review of proxy marriage companies, as well as a good explanation of the relevant law, can be found at: www.proxymarriagecenter.com Companies that I've heard good things about include: Proxy Marriage Now (www.proxymarriagenow.com), Dream Makers (www.marriageproxy.com), A Big Sky Event (www.abigskyevent.com), MPPM (www.proxymarriages.net), and Montana Proxy Marriages (www.montanaproxymarriages.com).

My fiancé is incarcerated. We want to get married and the prison is being very difficult. How can we get married?
You may still become legally married by proxy. A "proxy marriage" is a marriage where a stand-in (a "proxy") stands in for the absent groom or bride. A proxy marriage is handled entirely through the mail. No travel is necessary. And the civil marriage ceremony (using proxies) actually happens, by POA (power of attorney), outside of the prison; so the prison can't stop the marriage from taking place! The marriage is fully legally valid and all U.S. prisons MUST recognize the marriage. Marriage firms that facilitate prison proxy marriages include: VZS Proxy Marriage, Proxy Marriage Now!, MarriageByProxy. com (S&B), Dream Makers Marriage Services, MPPM Proxy Marriage, and Forever Dream Makers Marriage Services.
