The beautiful Princess Eugenie tied the knot with Jack Brooksbank at Windsor Castle a year ago, and she posted a sweet tribute video to celebrate. The two are…
The Guiness World Records oldest living married couple have just celebrated their 80th wedding anniversary, proving that true love never dies.
At 105 and 106 years old respectively, Charlotte and John Henderson from Austin, Texas are the oldest living couple on Earth. They met all the way back in 1934 at the University of Texas and it was love at first sight. John was seated behind Charlotte in class, and one day they started a conversation that sparked the flame.
“Charlotte looked over her shoulder and smiled and I knew I wanted to take her on a date,” John explained to TODAY. “She was anxious for me to ask her!”
They wed on December 15, 1939. So what is the secret to their successful marriage?
“Don’t indicate to your partner that you’re going to be the leader or you’re going to have it your way,” John told Fox 61. “You have to give and take as life goes by, and be grateful for what you have, and try to make tomorrow a better day than today, and be sure you don’t go to bed at night with a chip on your shoulder. Be aware of the other person’s feelings.”
“Some people say that’s the reason we’ve had such a long-married life, ’cause we didn’t have any kids to worry about,” John also joked.

Romantic yet whimsical, string lights are a favourite among couples for their wedding reception. These tiny lighting options make for a great way to illuminate your big day…
Bridal showers can be just one more thing on your already long to-do list. Oftentimes it can be a challenge to find something to do that is suitable for all ages and interests, as this is usually something for all the women invited to the wedding. Don’t be overwhelmed and certainly don’t take on any pressure about it.
If you know you’re being surprised, subtly hint at what kind of get together you would enjoy, or ask your partner to secretly let your maid of honour know what you think would work best.
Whether it’s a surprise set up by your maid of honour or you’re part of the organising, here are some fabulous ideas that will make them exciting and fun for everyone.
1. Moonlight picnic
If your bridal shower is in summertime, wait for a full moon and have a nighttime picnic. Add candle lights or lanterns for a cosy atmosphere.
2. Lawn games
Perfect for outdoor-lovers, have some fun in the sun with games like croquet, bowles, or even water gun fights.
3. Charity event
Sometimes, it’s more rewarding to give than to receive. Why not make a team effort to support a worthy cause? Volunteer at an animal shelter, community centre, make gift parcels for needy kids or visit an old-age home.
4. Dinner and a show
If you like entertainment, watch a show with your besties. Live music, theatre, and even ballet are good options. End it off with some drinks for a perfect night!
5. Bake day
If you’re more in the mood for staying in, why not get the ladies together and bake some sweet treats? Waffles, cupcakes, cookies or brownies are good things to do together.
6. Pajama party
A proper girls night is in order before you get married. Wear pajamas, do facials and share secrets with the women in your life.
7. Foraging
Foraging has become quite popular and is a ton of fun. Take the ladies to see what nature has to offer and appreciate the wonderful flora that abound.
8. Pool party
Poolside get-togethers are great because everyone can choose how to spend the day. Getting your tan on, splashing in the pool to cool down or making fresh drinks by on the side are all on the menu.
9. Perfume making
If you’re feeling experimental, why not got to a perfume making class? Surrounded by beautiful glassware and exotic scents, you will feel like you’re in heaven.
10. Champagne brunch
This might sound so done-before, but that’s because it’s so much fun! Set a table outside or inside, and gather your loved-ones for a festive brunch.
