Australians have taken to social media following a US Supreme Court decision that found the American constitution guaranteed a right to same-sex marriage.

Five against four judges ruled that gay and lesbian couples had a right to tie the knot.

It follows Ireland's decision last month to legalise same-sex marriage.

Congratulations to all my gay and lesbian brothers and sisters who can now get married anywhere in the U.S.! #LOVEWINS #godlovesall— Ashley Porter (@_ashmarierose) June 26, 2015

Fantastic #MarriageEquaility news out of the United States today. I hope we can experience the same joy in Australia soon.— Clover Moore (@CloverMoore) June 27, 2015

Completely & utterly in love with social media today after same-sex marriage was legalised across the US. Just phenomenal! #LoveWins— Richard Lindmark (@richardlindmark) June 27, 201

Prime Minister Tony Abbott also earned his own hashtag in the wake of the decision. The Prime Minister has refused to buckle on his stance against same-sex marriage despite recent pressure to catch up with Ireland and now, the US.

The hashtag #TonyAbbottDoesNotSpeakForMe did the rounds on Twitter following the announcement.

One love. Come on Australia!!! #TonyAbbottDoesNotSpeakForMe pic.twitter.com/z2MdzShmiu— Michala Banas (@michalabanas) June 27, 2015

Though not everyone was happy with the news out of Washington, with some Americans vowing to move to Australia where same-sex marriage is still illegal.

Thats it. Its legal to be a queer now. Im moving to Australia.— dylan stokes (@dylanstokess) June 26, 2015
