Thanks to a loophole in the Quintana Roo region of Mexicoโ€™s civil code found earlier this month, gay couples reportedly could marry in the Mexican Caribbean resort towns of Cancun and Cozumel. But Secretary of State Lois Gonzalez Flores has ordered a review of the legality of same-sex marriage and suspended the six gay and lesbian weddings that were scheduled to take place in Cancun later this month, La Reforma reports.

Until further notice, the city-state of Mexico City is the only municipality in Mexico in which same-sex marriage is officially recognized.
