In 2007 I was helping with demos with Family Tree Maker, Brother's Keeper, and Legacy. I was asked this very same question. I was able to do it by A) making one of the females a male B) marry them C) then change the male to a female. This was first time I tried it and it worked like a charm. I cannot remember which software package I used, but I will look in my old software drawer.
I tried the same procedure in Legacy 7.5.0.75. To my surprise Legacy software does not permit same sex marriages and will not permit the changing of sex once married. Legacy is sold to countries all around the world and to person of all religions or of no religious believes. Thus Legacy software should be less restrictive or at least have a option to turn this feature off. I will continue to look for a work around.
