I'm pretty sure that in most times and places such a marriage would not have been considered valid, purely because marriage was defined as being between a man and a woman, and/or because lack of consummation (understood as heterosexual sex) was seen as grounds for annulment. What the situation would be in a jurisdiction that allowed same-sex marriage is an interesting question, though. I wonder if it's ever arisen?
