[]You don't need Gay Marriage mod for starting new campaign with a gay marriage.
This mod needs new campaign to take effect.
I have a plan to create documentation about how make this changes but no promises.
Special thanks to two modders; longing600 for making a beatiful female preset and DeckardKain for inspiring me with his Player sister mod.

Manual installation
After downloading the mod just extract zStartCampaignMarried folder into the Modules folder of game.
Path to Modules folder is like below:
...\Steam\steamapps\common\Mount & Blade II Bannerlord\Modules
I suggest using 7-zip, I'm using for years, it is free, functional and fast.
Do not forget to activate mod in launcher when starting game.
There is no specific instruction for load order. This mod will work anywhere between under Sandbox and bottom of the list.
Manual uninstall
Remove the folder you copied.

This mod should NOT be uninstalled if you want to continue your campaign you started married. You can load your save game but Ashley will seen as Ex-Spouse and game will crash if you try to open your profile at Encyclopedia.
Known Compatibility Issues with other mods
This mod is NOT compatible with Character Export Import when you are starting new campaign. You can only start new campaign when this mod enabled but Character Export Import disabled. After saving your game you can load it again with both mods enabled. (Thanks to HiddenRB to find this issue and its solution together)
