A heterosexual couple in Britain attempted to have a civil partnership instead of marriage, and was denied. They appealed the ruling, and were again denied!
From BBC:
A heterosexual couple have lost their Court of Appeal battle to have a civil partnership instead of a marriage.
Rebecca Steinfeld and Charles Keidan, from London, challenged a ruling that said they did not meet the legal requirement of being the same sex.
The judges said there was a potential breach of their human rights, but the government should have more time to decide the future of civil partnership.
The couple said there was still everything to fight for.
They intend to appeal to the Supreme Court. * +

A government spokesman said it welcomed the ruling and would take the judgement into account during its evaluation of civil partnerships.
'Long overdue'
The BBC's legal affairs correspondent Clive Coleman said the couple had lost by the narrowest of margins as all three judges accepted there was a potential breach of their human rights.
'Equality and choice' * +
