Gay marriage opens the door to a plethora of new definitions of how "marriage" is defined, a door which the majority of people,especially in the UK, would like to see shut. Consenting adults in a loving relationship is NOT a good enough reason to re-define marriage.
I am certain it has probably already been stated, but marriage has been redefined throughout history.

Churches can still choose whether they want to marry same sex couples or not. The church has always had the right to deny to marry any couple, even straight couples, if it sees fit.
Besides, thankfully the UK has already legalized gay marriage.
