There are no publicly available statistics concerning the number of same-sex marriages that took place in California between June 16 and November 4, 2008, the period during which same-sex marriage was legal in California.
To give you an idea of how many it could be, however, 4,037 same-sex marriage licenses were issued between February 21 and March 11, 2004, in the city of San Francisco.
The 2004 San Francisco marriages were later declared void. The 2008 marriages are still legal in California and other jurisdictions that recognize same-sex marriage. Same-sex marriages legally performed in other jurisdictions during that specific period in 2008 are also recognized in California.
