Fifty-five couples celebrate 50 years of marriage by renewing their vows

On the eve of Christian Family Day, 21 November, dozens of couples from Dimitrovgrad renewed their wedding vows after spending more than half a century together. A total of 55 couples, all married for at least 50 years, took part in the celebrations.

Among them were people celebrating their 'diamond wedding'; they had tied the knot in 1965, according to Nova TV.

Mayor Ivo Dimov presented each couple with a copy of their marriage certificate and a bottle of wine branded for the occasion, BTA reported. The couples revealed that the secret to a happy family life is compromise.



The Municipality of Dimitrovgrad organised the event for the fourth consecutive year.
