It sounds like the legal opinion is that Prop 8 cannot invalidate existing marriages because it would violate the ex post facto clause of the U.S. constitution. See e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Proposition_8_(2008)#Proposed_amendment. Nonetheless I expect to see lots of legal snafu around existing same-sex marriages.
