I can just picture the uproar from religious couples angry that their marriages are no longer considered "marriages" by the law, but merely "civil unions."

I do wonder if it is feasible from a legislative standpoint, though. There are a lot of laws that refer to marriage and were never intended to refer to civil unions.
