Longest Married Couple

I spoke with a friend the other night about the "longest married couple dance" and how it's a sweet tradition that many continue at their wedding. Not sure whether Mr. SE and I will do this dance- we haven't really talked about it yet. But after talking to BM Kate, I saw this article on Yahoo and thought it was too cute to share.

"Our hearts melted when we read this piece on Herbert and Zelmyra Fisher of North Bern, N.C., who hold the record for the world's longest marriage. Herbert, 104, and Zelmyra, 101, have enjoyed 86 years of wedded bliss. According to Mashable, Herbert and Zelmyra, married in 1924, enjoy sitting on their front porch and counting cars. As if that weren't adorable enough, the two tweeted love advice to the masses between February 12 and Valentine's Day on their joint Twitter account, the aptly-named @longestmarried." from Yahoo

Did you do the oldest married couples dance at your wedding? If so- who was the couple? At BM Kate's wedding it was her sweet grandparents.
