Those who attended were amazed and filled with much joy.
The couple, James K. Andorful, 96, and Margaret Manuel, 93, tied the knot after over 50 years of cohabitation.
They were dressed up in white clothes as it is seen on the wedding pictures. The two exchanged their marital vows before the alter ceremoniously officiated by the Dansoman District Pastor of the Church of Pentecost, Rev. James Oko Barnor.
He said that the increased divorce rate in Ghana recently must be blamed largely on the discontentment of couples.

He, therefore, called on married couples especially young people to stop comparing their marriages to others and rather appreciates what God has blessed them with to sustain their marriages.
